A Blind Triathlete and Two Other Who Made the Lifestyle Switch

You think it's hard to train and complete for an Ironman?

How about training and completing an Ironman without being able to see?

Think about how exhausting and mentally taxing it would be for any of us to train for such an event, and then add the obstacles Powell had to overcome. Anytime he wanted to train on the road, on a bike or in open water, he needed a sighted partner, someone willing and able to go hours at his pace. This was not infrequent; Powell logged two one-hour training sessions a day for the better part of a year, plus a long run or bike ride every Saturday.

Read more about Powell and two others who made a successful switch into a healthy lifestyle here.
