The well-known triathlon is a test of endurance, but what happens when a mid-race accident threatens whether you finish it? Art's conversation about it is must-watch.
"I didn't know they were broken at the time," Art said of his wrists. "I looked at the bike, hoping that it would be rideable... I just thought in my mind that I got to finish."
Despite his intention to continue, Art said he felt pain in his left wrist once he tried to grab the handlebar. What's even more dire was that he had over 100 miles, or six hours, left on the ride and a 26.6-mile run ahead. "There were thoughts running through my mind because I was in so much pain after the wreck that I thought I can't continue," Art said, adding that fortunately no one else took a spill during his crash. "There's no way. Those thoughts were passing through the mind. But then, there was me trying to prevail over those thoughts, saying 'I've got to do it. I can do this.
With the added challenge of broken bones, Art eventually pulled through and crossed the finish line with a little under two hours left before the deadline. In the video player above, you can watch Art's emotional recollection of the race of his life, which included something heartwarming at the finish. In addition, you'll also hear about how this event was remarkable for Art a couple of years after his hospitalization during a COVID-19 infection.
