Chaos Media & Print Ltd  is completing an original TV documentary  following four novice Irish Ironman entrants as they prepared for their first ever Ironman race in 2005 in Austria.

 

For the first time possibly anywhere in the world STONEMAD takes the audience through the use of an 'on board camera' right into the middle of an Ironman swim start.  The result is spectacular. 

We are currently seeking a co-production partner or sponsor to facilitate progressing STONEMAD from its current rough cut status to completion. A 20 minute sample is available to download below.

Download a collection of sample clips. Here>>>

(This is a 50Mb windows media file and is suitable only for broadband connections.)

A two hour rough cut DVD with narration is available on request to interested parties.

November 2006: Now this is getting silly!

After filming and competing at Ironman Austria last year, Alan suprised himself by actually enjoying the race.  He returned to Austria this summer and enjoyed it even more. In doing so he recorded one of the fastest times ever by an Irishman for an Ironman race and became the first Irish person ever to go under five hours for the bike section (once again using a borrowed bike from Fergus).  He now holds the Irish record of 4:57:34 for the bike and has ambitions at the age of 40 to qualify for the World Championships in Hawaii.  

The pressure is on, Eimear has booked their wedding on the beach in Hawaii for after the race - whether he qualifies or not!

A most successful and beneficial training weekend was recently held in Gormanston College and Skerries beach.  Many thanks to Brian Martin of Ironman Wetsuits for sponsoring the event and to Dan Bullock of Swim for Tri who gave a master class in triathlon swimming.

(Just a reminder to all Saturday attendees that Chaos will send out a DVD of the underwater footage that Dan took for his technique session as soon as possible)

Alan Ryan was recently interviewed by The Sunday Show on RTE Radio 1 who are keen to follow our progress. The project has been given the Jimmy McGee ‘seal of approval’ on air. Jimmy an Irish broadcasting legend, had commentated on some of the original Ironman events in Hawaii for RTE. He is delighted the event is to be revisited; especially now with the considerable Irish interest.
