He raced in the above order without a break and achieved for himself the Ironman tittle. We arent sure but he could be the First person from Belagavi to finish this Triathlon.

Most Ironman events have a limited time of 17 hours to complete the race. Santosh finished this 16.29 hours. The race typically starts at 7:00 a.m.; the mandatory swim cut off for the 3.86 km swim 2 hours 20 minutes and Santosh finished this in 1:25:20, the mandatory bike cut off time is 10 hours 10 minutes and Santosh finished this in 8:24, and the mandatory marathon cut off is 6 hours 30 minutes and Santosh clocked 5:14:41. Any participant who manages to complete the triathlon in these timings is designated an Ironman.
