An Ottawa woman undergoing chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer completed the
Ironman Triathlon in British Columbia on Sunday, to the amazement of her
doctor.
Sindy Hooper, 50, finished the race in 16 hours and 24 minutes — the cut-
off to finish the race was 17 hours.
Her husband Jon also competed and completed the event.
Hooper swam four kilometres, biked 180 kilometres and ran 42 kilometres,
possibly becoming the first person to ever try to race an Ironman while
undergoing chemotherapy. |
