With an Iron Man suit I might be able to survive the process.

Although my old knees won't take it any more, I have completed 2 marathons, about six 20-milers, dozens of half-marathons and more 10Ks than I can remember. My favorite distance was the half-marathon. My most memorable runs include a 10K where Bill Rogers ran, a 10K (Bolder Boulder) with Frank Shorter, and the Peachtree 10K in Atlanta.

I would do very well in a triathlon -- except for the swimming and running. I used to run 5 miles, 3 times a week, but it sure hurt like ^&*%. Now, on the bike, I can roll off 100+ miles and get up and do it all over the next day.
