“Thanks so much for the support… it really does mean the world”

The 2018 IRONMAN World Championship will be one for the memories – and certainly one that will require a re-writing of the record books! Second again (and inside the previous course record), it was another great day for Lucy Charles (read all about it HERE). Still feeling the pain of her efforts on Saturday, Lucy reflects here on a very special day.

Watch her video message above for her thoughts on an incredible race.
