Biography
Ben Kanute is an American triathlete who competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics. In 2017 he took second place at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship. At the age of 7, I stood at the shore of Lower Wacker Drive in Chicago watching my father participate in his first triathlon, knowing that one day that had to be me. Fast forward through years of hard work, and I am honored to be a US Olympian and National Champion(3x).
