Swimming 3.8 kilometres, biking 179.2 km and then running a 41.9-km marathon is a crippling feat for any body buff, but Florida native Katrina Silvia decided to heat things up by meeting this challenge still decked out in her firefighter’s uniform — air tank included — all in the name of cancer awareness. Funds raised from Silvia’s effort went to the Code 3 for a Cure Foundation, which is committed to dousing the fires of cancer in diagnosed firefighters.
