Irondad: A Midlife Crisis in 140.6 Miles

When Ian Dawson accidentally clicks "Register Now" for Ironman Wales, he doesn't just sign up for a triathlon - he signs up for chaos.Middle-aged, mildly unfit, and emotionally allergic to Lycra, Ian suddenly finds himself swimming, cycling, and running toward the biggest challenge of his life. Between marital diplomacy, spreadsheet obsession, and a spaniel that judges his every move, Ian's journey from sofa to start line is as disastrous as it is inspiring.With the help (and heckling) of his mates, a long-suffering wife, and the world's least sympathetic group chat, Ian learns that becoming an Ironman isn't really about the race at all - it's about rediscovering who you are when everything aches and everyone's watching.Filled with laugh-out-loud moments, familiar midlife panic, and the kind of endurance comedy every athlete (and partner of one) will recognise, IRON(DAD) is the story of one man's misguided quest for glory - and the unlikely triumph that follows.
