The woman who notoriously crawled across the finish line in 1982's Ironman, Julie Moss, tells Vassos Alexander how she managed to carry on despite her body collapsing. Julie, a student who entered the competition for research, says she just hoped to finish the race, but was leading with a quarter of a mile to go. The footage was captured by ABC television, adding to the triathlon's formidable reputation.
