Kona Ironman: Spirit of the race

I mentioned in my previous post about several pro athlete who didn't have a great day in Kona but continued on and finished the race despite the adversity of the day.

Rutger is a top 5 finisher each of the last 4 years in Kona and this year he had to walk most of the marathon and finished in 898th place.

Here is a great article about Rutger Beke's day in Kona which embodies the spirit of the Ironman.
