The 2014 USA Triathlon Hall of Fame induction ceremony is set for Thursday, June 26 at the Navy Pier Ballroom in Chicago. As previously reported here, Five individuals will be honored as the sixth induction class to the Hall (No physical "hall" yet exists, but surely that's only a matter of time): Ironman founders John & Judy Collins; Tom Warren, winner of the 1979 "Iron Man"; former pro great and serial national champ Mike Pigg; and age-grouper Sister Madonna Buder, the so-called "The Iron Nun".
