(Detroit, MI) – August 20, 2010 - On Sunday, July 25, 2010, FBI Detroit Special Agent (SA) Christopher R. Johnson competed in an Ironman competition at Lake Placid, New York. The 140.6 mile race (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride and 26.2 mile run) was completed by SA Johnson in 11:17:43. SA Johnson finished 436th out of nearly 2,700 individuals who started the race.
