Summary: In the new movie THE DISTANCE: A Triathlete's Journey, filmmaker Richard Ratay takes a fascinating, year-long look at three athletes as they prepare for the 2008 Ironman Wisconsin triathlon. The athletes, two in their late 30s and one a college student, test their endurance, time management skills, and family relationships as they fit a busy training schedule into their lives. The Distance, which culminates in the Ironman, is a fascinating look into the world of triathlon that few ever see.
