Ironman World champion opens up on what it takes to win the toughest race

Preparing for Ironman World Championship is getting harder and harder, triathlete Michelle Howes says, but the flame still burns bright to compete.

Competing in the 55-59 age category, Howes, formerly Enslin, recently claimed her third Ironman World Championship title in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.

In That Weekend Feeling with Daron Mann, Howes talks us through her race — including “the toughest and worst marathon I've ever done” — and what motivated her all the way to first place.
