St. Edwards man among 36 athletes in world ultraman
HAWAII - Prince Edward Island's Paul Dalton started strong and finished strong in the three-day world ultraman championship, held in Hawaii during the United States Thanksgiving weekend Nov. 26 to 28.
Dalton had a very good swim, covering the 10-kilometre ocean swim in a time of 3:39.57 – 27th out of a field of 36 world-class athletes. That was just part of his Day 1 job, though. He still had to endure a 145-kilometre bike ride, completing the day in a combined time of 11:36:38 and a 33rd-place finish.
He was back on the bike Saturday, covering the 276 kilometres in 11:26:00, dropping to 34th place out of 35 starters.
Sunday, Dalton ran a double marathon in a time of 10:08.53 – the 26th fastest. That put him in 32nd place overall with a combined time of 33:11:31. His finish time was five minutes and 44 seconds faster than the numbers he put up in the Ultraman Canada race in British Columbia last July.
