This year Wax Fitness took along a team of 18 athletes to compete in the Ironman & Ironwoman Gym Challenge and managed to bring home 7 Trophies. Wax Fitness has taken part in this competition for many years but this was our largest and most successful year. Pre-race nerves were apparent along with an excited anticipation; but then everyone excelled, performed superbly and had an amazing time. We’ll all be back next time.
