Operation Ironman

One Man's Four Month Journey from Hospital Bed to Ironman Triathlon

De: George Mahood

Narrado por: Nathaniel Priestley

Operation Ironman follows George Mahood's hilarious and inspiring journey from a hospital bed to an Ironman triathlon. After major back surgery, George set himself the ultimate challenge:

• A 2.4 mile swim
• A 112 mile bike ride
• And a 26.2 mile run
• All to be completed within 16 hours

He couldn't swim more than a length of front crawl, he had never ridden a proper road bike, he had not run further than 10k in 18 months...and he had never worn Lycra.

He had four months to prepare.

Could he do it?

Love love this

Amazing, funny and so inspiring!
And as a multiple cancer survivor also so incredibly relatable .

Brilliant

A very inspiring story that entertains and amazes throughout. Funny and brilliantly narrated as well. Highly recommended.

Good story and fun listen

It was a fun listen and narration was very entertaining. People scoring it low missed the point. It is not a trading guide. It’s a fun retelling of one person’s Ironman attempt. Just what I needed!!

Great storyteller

I downloaded the book because I basically read and listen to everything triathlon related. Turns out it’s a gem. He’s a great story teller. His story is cool but his delivery is the genius here. He’s funny, self deprecating, and kinda corny at times. There are some little tidbits of Ironman training advice thrown in as well. Great ‘read’!

So funny and inspiring.

Great writing and such amazing commitment. Definitely recommend and I will be looking into other books by this author.
