In preparation for my 100-mile race, I will compete in an IRONMAN in southern Hokkaido, Japan. The race consists of a 2.4-mile (3.9 km) swim in the Pacific Ocean, a 112-mile (180.2 km) bike ride, and a 26.2-mile (42.2 km) run, with an overall time limit of approximately 17 hours.

Completing an IRONMAN with the use of only one arm will be extremely difficult, but I am confident that it will prepare me for even greater endurance challenges in the future.
