The San Francisco premiere of the Triabetes documentary, "The Science of Inspiration," takes place this month at UCSF (October 6th.) This full-length documentary was recorded and produced in high definition (HD) digital format by an Emmy award winning video production company, and reveals the magnitude of Ironman triathlon training and racing first-hand, from the perspectives of people living with type 1 diabetes.

In 2008, 12 people with type 1 diabetes set out to complete Ironman Wisconsin as part of a team called Triabetes. An IronMan triathlon is a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike and a 26.2 mile run.

Triabetes has now grown to be the world’s largest triathlon club for people with diabetes, shattering presumed limitations and revolutionizing the way people approach diabetes management.
