Hirschfeld, 65, finished the Olympic Distance competition in an impressive time of 3 hours, 4 minutes and 36 seconds

08/12/2015 I never felt so proud to continue to get better and be the best I can be. It was a thrill to take part in such a high level event with some of the most gifted and tough competitors the world has to offer.

07/20/2015 This weekend was insanely hot making for a hellish run in the hilly Central Park. But, we triathletes seem to like suffering and this was genuinely suffering. I drank non-stop using three bottles on the bike and as much water as I could grab at each aid station. Afterwards, I kept drinking almost non-stop for 2 more hours.

It took a long time to recover, but it is such a New York City treat to swim the Hudson River from 99th to 79th St. Then, we bicycled 25 miles and back the West Side Highway and Moshulo parkway closed to cars. Finally, we run 1 mile across West 72nd St, which is shut to cars and full of cheering spectators. We finally finished running five miles around Central Park.

The heat caused many not to finish, however, I am proud to say, I was amongst the 31 finishers out of the 43 who started in my 65 – 69 age group.

09/21/2013 So proud of my daughter, Daniella Hirschfeld, who finished her first Ironman on September 21, 2013 under the most difficult terrain and conditions I have ever seen! Loved cheering her on, as she has done for me so many times.

2013 RJA Memorial Mighty Montauk Triathlon

06/07/2013 This will be the one of the few times in the last several years that I won’t be participating in the RJA Memorial Mighty Montauk Triathlon, due to a minor injury that has me sidelined for a little while. Sending best wishes to all the incredible athletes who will participate.  I am looking forward to competing in the Mighty Hamptons Olympic Distance Triathlon in September.
