If you didn’t see it here on Slow Twitch, you should check it out. Charlie Yu, the guy who stated that you are only an Ironman if you finished in Kona, sent in an apology.
They have his letter and the original response from Chris Hauth on www.tdottriathlon.com. You can also find it here on Slow Twitch
I think it took a lot for this guy to step up and admit he was wrong.
