The internet basically lost its composure entirely when 50-year-old Milind Soman managed to complete the Ironman triathlon at Zurich earlier this year. It was partly his age and partly his celebrity status that allowed him to collect the volume of accolades he did, though we doubt any man who can swim, run, and cycle across chosen terrains for kilometres at a stretch, for over 15 hours, is in it for the fame at all. To win the title of ‘Ironman,’ participants are required to complete a 3.8 kilometre swim, a 180.2 kilometre-long bicycle ride, and a 42.2 kilometre run race in this exact order within 16 hours, so it goes without saying that he’s worthy of respect. But what about the other Indians who have achieved this feat too? From pilots to IT engineers, marketing managers to tech entrepreneurs, we uncovered all sorts of unlikely Indians, from all walks of life who have participated and completed this race without enough of us being aware of it. We managed to speak to them too, understanding the immense discipline it takes to juggle personal and professional lives, along with training sessions just to win the title of ‘Ironman.’ If you needed the inspiration and motivation to believe anyone can do this if they set their mind to it, these 11 individuals stories are bound to do you a solid. 30-year-old Akshay Samel has been flying as a pilot with IndiGo for almost 3 years now, but still found the time to complete 3 Ironman 70.3s–in Taiwan (November 2013), Putrajaya, Malaysia...
