The crown jewel within the endurance sports family, the IRONMAN®, has become more and more popular in recent years – not only among men, but also among women. For the first time three Mercedes Benz sponsored ladies are among the competing athletes, the PowerLadies: Åsa Lundström, Anja Beranek und Kaisa Lehtonen.
As part of this webclip we visit Anja Beranek from Herrenberg, Stuttgart and Kaisa Lehtonenfrom Finnland. They redefine the boundaries of the IRONMAN® sport time and again via hard training, plenty of diligence and an unbelievable devotion to their sport. The sport IRONMAN®, which requires mastering 2.4mi of swimming, 112mi of cycling, and 26,2mi of running, one needs an unbelievable physical and mental strength to exceed their limits over and over again.
We accompany Anja Beranek and Kaisa Lehtonen during their training camp on Mallorca, Spain, where they are talking about their passion regarding the Ironman sport, during which they push each other to the limit, exchange tips, or just chat about regular every day women’s topics.
Furthermore, we accompany Anja Beranek to her home in Herrenberg, where she superiorly masters her daily routine packed with sport, professional career and her partner. She openly talks about the fact that the triathlon itself, as an individual sport, just works in cooperation with her partner. Her entire focus is directed at her life-style, healthy food and she knows no excuses when it comes to training hard, even if the weather conditions are poor, and this is what makes her that strong.
