As if the pressures of a professional kitchen aren't enough, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay endured another kind of "hell" in Hawaii Saturday.
After a vigorous training routine and health diet, the 46-year-old "Hell's Kitchen" host completed Hawaii's famously strenuous Ironman triathlon in 14 hours, 4 minutes and 48 seconds.
Ramsay -- or one of his assistants -- managed to update his Twitter feed throughout the race, which involves a 2.4-mile swim in the ocean, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2 marathon run.
Ready for 12 hours of hell !! #IMKona http://t.co/vz7jZcIAb5
