On the 1st of August about 500 sportsmen and women took part in the 18th annual sport competition Heidelberg Man. Participants ran 10 km and took 32 km-long bicycle ride to show Heidelberg their physical strength and prove themselves to be ‘iron’ men.
Due to the weather conditions, this year’s event did not include swimming, which normally is the part of the competition triathlon, making it more a biathlon than anything. Still pretty tough.
At the end of the tense hours of non-stop competitive movement, the sportsmen happily gave themselves into the hands of masseurs.
