In the Kona Triathlon World Championship, the last event was a long-distance run. The athletes needed to complete a 42km marathon-length race. This was after completing 3.8 km of open water swimming and 189 km of road cycling.
Even professional athletes with excellent physical fitness would be exhausted after completing the first two events. However, the world's top triathletes were still able to run after 3.8 km of open water swimming and 189 km of road cycling.
Hansen Brown ran while eating an energy bar. He then took out an energy drink from a supply bag and put it in his mouth. He drank half of it and used the other half to rinse his mouth. He then spat it out.
