Actress/singer Jennifer Lopez, 39, completed the Nautica Malibu Triathlon in no more than 2 hours, 23 minutes and 38.8 seconds yesterday, Usmagazine.com reports.
Besides crossing the finish line, the actress and her fellow triathlon participants managed to raise $950,000 for the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles.
Actor Matthew McConaughey did also compete in the swimming-running-biking event. His race time was 1 hour, 30 minutes and 44.7 seconds.
Lopez got the idea of participating in a triathlon while eight months pregnant (she talks about it in this video). She gave birth to twins (Max and Emme) in February.
my hat goes off to j.lo. she’s truly a remarkable woman to be able to complete a triathlon so soon after giving birth to twins! plus she managed to raise all that money for charity. impressive!
