She’s the oldest person ever to finish the Ironman Triathlon and even helped launch new age groups in the sport but Sister Madonna Buder says it’s not about setting records or getting accolades.

Her real mission is to encourage others to discover and develop their God-given gifts for the benefit of all. At 82 years old, Buder is a Roman Catholic Religious Sister and dedicated to leading by example.

See what keeps her running, how she got started in her late 40s and hear her reflections on being just a mile away from finishing the Boston Marathon when the bombs exploded.
