IRONMAN TRIATHLON WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 1985 
This is very rare footage of Ironman Hawaii.  I recorded it on videotape when originally broadcast in early 1986, and discovered it in my collection a few years ago.  (Sorry, but I had recorded over the beginning of the race and through most of the swim.)   If you're an Ironman fan, you'll find this video especially interesting.  (Run time:  53 minutes;  Video format:  Flash)
