My long training day at the 2008 Hawaii Ironman World Championships

Aloha from Kona, Hawaii!

First, allow me to thank all of you for your text messages, emails and well wishes before the race. It all helps, believe me.

As for the race itself, it was everything I had expected. First impressions? How about hot, humid - windy…let me repeat…hot, humid - windy. I now know why they call the Ironman World Championship in Kona the toughest of all the M–dot races. You simply do not know what the day is going to bring you, and that alone is the most challenging part of it. http://www.chasingmemovie.com/news/102108.html

Jason Lester will compete in his first Ford Ironman World Championship on Saturday.

With a paralyzed arm.

Don’t worry, he’ll do just fine.
