Gio Bernard takes on Ironman challenge in year that began with heartbreak


Former UNC running back will again wear a helmet and show off his athletic ability on Sunday, as he did for 10 NFL seasons. But it will be unlike any football challenge. The Ironman 70.3 Augusta comes eight months after the heartbreak of losing his newborn son, a moment that made two ACL tears and other career setbacks seem minor. (Tar Heel Tribune)
