A huge congratulations to Ted Zokas on completing the IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea last weekend! 🏊🚴🏃

Taking on a 1.2-mile swim, a 56-mile bike ride, and a 13.1-mile run in extremely hot conditions is an incredible achievement. Crossing the finish line is the reward for months of dedication, hard work, determination, and resilience.
