Madonna Buder

Multisport and Endurance Sports

Madonna Buder, born Marie Dorothy Buder on 24 July 1930, is an American Senior Olympian triathlete and a religious sister, known as the Iron Nun. She holds the world record as the oldest woman to finish an Ironman Triathlon, which she set at the age of 82 by finishing the Subaru Ironman Canada on 26 August 2012. The opening of her biography is built around that record and around the two roles it joins, a member of a religious order and an endurance athlete who kept racing far beyond the usual age of competitors in the sport.
