Warren Rose returns to The Everyday Ironman Podcast to share an emotional and inspiring recap of his first attempt at a full iron-distance triathlon. From the UK, Warren takes us through his journey — from volunteering at the race the year before to better understand the course, to overcoming setbacks like missing the cutoff in his first stand-alone marathon and even being hit by a car during training.

During the Outlaw full-distance race, Warren faced one challenge after another: being punched in the swim, dealing with eye trauma that impacted his bike strategy, and battling hydration issues that derailed his run. Despite missing the final loop cutoff, he crossed the line as an official aqua-bike finisher — all while raising funds for cancer research.

This episode is a raw and powerful reminder that triathlon isn’t just about finishing — it’s about perseverance, purpose, and heart.
