Beate Görtz can probably run, swim and, cycle longer and faster than most of us. On October 9, 2010 at the Ironman world championships in Hawaii she set a new world record for the 40-44 age group, and became World Champion. My hat goes of to Beate and her accomplishment and I can’t wait to see what she does next. You can find out more about Beate on her website http://www.beategoertz.de/, and on the ASV Köln website http://www.asv-koeln.de/ .
