FORD IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2011

The Ironman Triathlon World Championship 2011 took place on October 8, 2011, in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. This prestigious event, recognized as the pinnacle of the Ironman series, brought together elite athletes from around the globe to compete in one of the most grueling endurance challenges in the world.

The competition is divided into three parts: a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim in the warm waters of the Pacific Ocean, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bike ride across the challenging terrain of the Big Island, and a 26.2-mile (42.20 km) marathon run along the scenic yet demanding coastline. Athletes not only battle their physical limits but also contend with environmental factors such as heat, humidity, and unpredictable ocean currents.

In 2011, the world featured exceptional talent, with notable athletes vying for the coveted title. The race was characterized by intense rivalries and inspiring personal stories of endurance and determination. Here are some details about the event:

Swim Start: The race commenced with a mass start, where over 1,900 athletes jumped into the ocean at the same time, creating a chaotic yet exhilarating atmosphere. The swimming leg was marked by the challenge of navigating through waves and crowds.

Biking Course: The bike segment took competitors through the lava fields and hills of the Big Island, presenting both a scenic route and a stringent physical test. The infamous Haleakalā winds could significantly impact performance.

Run Challenge: The marathon portion of the race pushed athletes to their limits. Athletes had to manage their energy and hydration effectively to cope with the heat of Hawaii as well as the mental fatigue that accumulates over the grueling 140.6-mile course.

Finish Line Atmosphere: The energy at the finish line was electric, with thousands of supporters cheering for their favorites. Completing an Ironman is an achievement worthy of celebration, and the finishers received medals accompanied by cheers and applause.

The 2011 Ironman Triathlon World Championship is remembered not just for the athletic prowess displayed but also for the profound stories behind the athletes. Many participants faced personal struggles or health challenges, which added a layer of depth to their pursuit of the finish line. Athletes trained for months, if not years, to prepare for this day, demonstrating unparalleled commitment and perseverance.

The event also showcased the spirit of community and sportsmanship, as spectators and fellow athletes rallied around each other throughout the course, creating an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. The camaraderie forged during this grueling challenge is one of the hallmarks of the Ironman community.

The 2011 Ironman Triathlon World Championship not only solidified the event’s status as a global athletic spectacle but also reaffirmed the notion that the Ironman isn't merely a race; it's a testament to human spirit and resilience.

WHAT YOU GET:

This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.

IMAGES:

All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.

COMPATIBILITY:

Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.

PLATFORM:

Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.

64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.

Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.

MEDIA FORMAT:

Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:

  • Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
  • Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
  • Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.


  • SHIPPING:

    We typically ship all items out within 1-2 business days after payment is received. In regards to the stated shipping and handling, remember that these costs include more than just postage.

    International buyers please email/chat with us to determine if you are eligible for shipping of a specific product. If you are, then international buyers not shipping to an address within the U.S. can expect their orders to take anywhere from 5 days to 4 weeks to be received, depending on how fast/well USPS is moving. Additionally, international orders typically have to go through governmental customs, which can delay the arrival process. Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges.
