Fitness ≠ Health
Testimonial Film
Cleerly gave Timothy O'Donnell his confidence back.
“Before I had my heart attack, I was coming off the greatest race in my life.”
Timothy O’Donnell is an elite triathlete. He placed second in the 2019 Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, completing a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike leg, and a full marathon in under eight hours.
By all external measures of health, Tim appeared to be at peak physical condition. He was 40 and coming off a phenomenal race season – and accomplished that with two young children at home. Then, at the 2021 Challenge Miami triathlon he experienced a heart attack commonly known as the “widowmaker.”
“When you think about that brief second, you question your mortality and life – you realize quickly you don't want to lose it.”
