The then opposition leader of Australia did Port Macquarie in 2010. Copped a bit of flack for claiming back the cost of accommodation, saying training for the race "helped him do his job".

He did go on to win the 2013 election, but wasn't exactly a popular leader, and didn't last a full term...

Oooo thank you for reminding me I still have the Triathlete magazine with Maxine Bahns on the cover.

The prince of Greece was awesome at ultratriathlon and deca-ironman

I remember there was a run of celebs at the NYC marathon (pun unintended). It was like everyone was doing it.

I just wonder who the celebs are riding with at Hawaii. I mean everyone is super fast and it's not a multiloop course....so it must be pretty lonely for people that only train a few months to finish

I was in a HITS race in Palm Springs with Jimmy Johnson. I didn't have a clue before hand or for most of the race. During the run leg there was a camera crew filming him from a car. He hung out post race and seemed more than happy to visit with anyone who wanted to chat. As I recall, he posted a very respectable time in the Olympic distance.

He should swim without a cap and red speedos.
