Ex-actress Ivy Lee's son, 21, completes Ironman race in Austria in 13 hours 20 minutes

Former Singaporean actress Ivy Lee took to Instagram to share that one of her twin sons has completed the popular but gruelling Ironman race in Austria.

Her son Dash completed the triathlon, which consisted of a 3.8km swim, 180km of cycling, and a 42.2km marathon, in 13 hours 20 minutes 57 seconds.

Lee has twin sons, Nik and Dash.

In her post, Lee shared photos and videos of Dash swimming, cycling, running past the finish line.

She accompanied him throughout as a supporter.

Her Instagram caption read: "The Ironman that makes the Ironmum."

Two Singaporeans competed in this year's Ironman Kaernten-Klagenfurt and only Dash completed the race, according to the published Ironman results.
