Iowan, Montanan win Ironman 70.3
To be the best, you’ve got to beat the best.
And in Sunday’s Ironman 70.3 Coeur d’Alene, there was nobody better than Matt Hanson.
Not a two-time defending champion.
Nor the defending world champion.
Sunday belonged to Hanson, and he left no doubt about it.
Hanson, who trailed by a little over a minute coming out of the 1.2-mile swim, made his move late in the 56-mile bike and held on late in the 13.1-mile run to win the men’s race in 3 hours, 51 minutes and 16 seconds/Jason Elliott, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.
