Where did Ironman begin? (I knew you were curious, too.)

When a group of Navy Seals started an argument about who was the fittest athlete in 1978, Commander John Collins suggested that the best way to decide would be to combine the Waikiki Rough Water Swim, the Around Oahu Bike Race and the Honolulu Marathon ... whoever finished would be a real Ironman.Fast-forward 30 years and you have the world's most prestigious one-day endurance event!
