Ankita and i completed the Ironman 70.3 commonly known as the half Ironman in beautiful Tallinn, Estonia 🙂 1.9km swim in super cold water, freezing rainy weather throughout the 90km cycle ride and finally the 21km run on tired legs, but Ankita completed in a very good time of 7hrs 5min, so proud of her, and i (as usual) finished 5 seconds before the cutoff !!”

“Super fun, there really is nothing better than the contribution of endurance sport in the living of a fun life, and when you share it with your partner, it is the most amazing feeling…Thank you @ironmantri and @ironman_estonia for the experience of a lifetime!!! See you in the next one,” the ‘Emergency’ actor added.
