The weather aside, the Isuzu Ironman African Championship in Nelson Mandela Bay earlier in March was "an incredibly successful event" according to Ironman SA managing director Keith Bowler.
Thunderstorms on the morning meant the start of the triathlon had to be delayed and the first leg, the 3.8km swim shortened to just 900m.
But, the weather cleared up for the most part, and the event continued without any major issues.
In That Weekend Feeling with Daron Mann this week, Bowler reflects on the event which saw athletes from 52 countries participate.
