Gordon Ramsay Bows Out Of Ironman

Gordon Ramsay had the guts to enter the grueling Ironman World Championship in Hawaii, but he ended up losing those guts ... on the side of a road.

Chef Ramsay had to drop out of the legendary race, but not before completing the 2.4 mile ocean swim. He moved on to the 122 mile bike ride, and that's when he started blowing chunks.

He tried to persevere through the final marathon leg, but went down with dehydration ... which prevented him from finishing. Medics had to come to his aid.

Ramsay's finished the race before ... in 2013 and it took him 14 hours. He says he'll be back next year.
