She was a forty year old woman documenting her journey towards competing in her first ever sprint triathlon. Two years later she set her goals on completing a 140.6-mile race, otherwise known as an Ironman Triathlon. A 2.4-mile swim. A 112-mile bike ride. A 26.2-mile run. All within a 17-hour time frame. Being a self-taught athlete she suffered minor bumps and bruises along the way and learned that there are many aspects to a triathlon. She discovered how to deal with injury, nutrition, and mental preparedness (or lack thereof)—both physically and emotionally. This story demonstrated her impacts to family, life balance, and sense of humor. Her story is full of comical errors, but that did not sway her from setting her sights on competing in twelve full-distance Ironman events which earned her a legacy spot at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. Realizing that life has no guarantees, this story ends not with the desired original intent, but rather with a new perspective on what is important in life.
Added Epilogue, July 2023 - The story is not over, and redemption to the Ironman World Championships, Kona Hawaii offers a new twist to this exciting adventure.
