VIDEO: Last Swimmer Out of Water Ironman Chattanooga

This isn’t quite as riveting as watching the last person finish an IRONMAN, but it’s still pretty cool.  Lots of encouragement from the fans and Voice of Ironman, Mike Reilly.

“You got it!  You got it!,” he yells . . . he even tells her to doggy paddle!

You can see her at one point look up, mere feet from the finish and seemingly say, “I can’t make it.”  I’ve been there early in my triathlon career and that is not a good feeling.

I believe her swim time was 1:47:45.  Pretty amazing what the body and mind can get you through.
