While many folks relaxed this summer, RIT's Stephen Aldersley (left) and Paul Smarsh proved that each is worthy of the title "Ironman." Both men successfully completed the Ironman triathlon, held in Lake Placid, N.Y., by swimming 2.4 miles, biking 112 miles and running 26.2 miles. Smarsh, a chef at RIT's Crossroads facility, finished with a time of 13:10:54. Aldersley, English department chair at the National Technical Institute for Deaf, completed the race in 15:57:27.
