9/13/2008 'Iron-distance' Event Setup Huge
"If you want to put on a swim meet, you need a pool. For a football game, get a field and some bleachers, maybe a stadium. But an iron-distance triathlon can involve a city and a town, four counties and a large number of police, fire, emergency rescue and other agencies, all operating in sync."
