Ice Mile
An Ice Mile is an officially recognized non-wetsuit ice swim of one statute mile in distance by a solo individual held in water 5ºC (41ºF) or less under the auspices of the International Ice Swimming Association without the benefit of use of a neoprene cap or any other aid other than a swimsuit, swim cap, and ear plugs.
Ironman Triathlon
An Ironman or an Ironman triathlon is a certified multi-sport event involving the completion of three continuous and sequential endurance events. According to the International Triathlon Union and USA Triathlon, the distances are a 3.8 km swim, 180 km ride, and a 42.2 km marathon run.
Self-designed or unofficial triathlons do not count for the Iron Iceman or Iron Icewoman designation because it would be impossible to authenticate the achievement.
