75-Year-Old Shows His Mettle In Ironman Competition

By his own admission, Roger Brockenbrough of Mt. Lebanon wasn't much of an athlete as a young man. But he's gotten better with age.

Last Saturday Mr. Brockenbrough, 75, won his age group in the Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii. The Ironman consists of a 2.4-mile open ocean swim, a 112-mile bicycle ride, and a full marathon (26.2-mile) run, all conducted without a break.
