Ironman Louisville holds many special memories for us and today we look back at the good, the bad, and the ugly. We also talk about the impact of Ironman on our daily lives and how races bring out the best in total strangers. From the swim line trepidation to the electric finish line, Ironman has a contagious energy that can literally change your life. Today is a sad day, but we use it to move forward and appreciate what we have.  Topics: Sun at the end of the tunnel? The Race cancelation yo-yo Finding an outline to move forward They’ll say it was COVID, but .  . The “old” Louisville Heat Did the move from August ruin Louisville? Easier isn’t always better Support from total random strangers boards at Louisville -  “that’s how life should be” An addictive energy that’s impossible to describe What if no one was there cheering? Contagious energy Ironman race energy in every day life It’s about the experience, the perspective and what you get out of it Finding presence at your race It’s all about the faces in the swim line Don’t take today’s opportunity for granted IRONMAN LOUISVILLE TRIBUTE VIDEOS BY CRUSHING IRON: 2019 - https://youtu.be/98-tQj24Vww 2018 - https://youtu.be/5VYdpb-wCtc 2017 - https://youtu.be/daZVLcYC1XM 2016 - https://youtu.be/tVFcO1Yat_Y 2016 - Swim Start Walk-up - https://youtu.be/y6vXAIX0UKA 2015 - https://youtu.be/KtJwlTfaI_o 2014 - https://youtu.be/258p8OohPko 2013 - https://youtu.be/NzqanwwVonA ---------------- The C26 Online Hub is now open to the public!
