IRONMAN: CDA simply shines

I would like to thank the city of Coeur d’Alene for hosting Ironman this year. The entire experience in your beautiful location was wonderful. The people of CDA made the visitors feel welcome throughout the weekend.

After such a difficult 2020, it was heartening to see people tirelessly supporting strangers with words of encouragement, ice cubes, popsicles, otter pops, hugs and sprinklers throughout the challenging day. Gives one hope in humanity.
