Over the past six months, I embarked on an incredible journey through the world of triathlon, culminating in three major races: the Ironman 70.3, T100, and the full 140.6 Ironman. Each event challenged me physically and mentally, pushing my limits and reshaping my understanding of endurance.
The Ironman 70.3 was my first taste of the triathlon experience. It taught me the importance of pacing and strategy. Crossing that finish line ignited a passion within me that propelled me forward. Next, the T100 introduced me to the nuances of longer distances and the necessity of nutrition and recovery. The camaraderie among participants was inspiring and reinforced my commitment.
Finally, tackling the full 140.6 Ironman was the ultimate test. The months of training, the early mornings, and the sacrifices all came together on race day. The experience was a blend of pain, perseverance, and triumph. Each stroke in the swim, each pedal in the bike, and each step in the run reminded me of the dedication and resilience I had built over the months.
This journey has transformed me not just as an athlete, but as a person. I’ve learned the value of discipline, the power of community, and the sheer joy of achieving what once felt impossible. I’m grateful for every challenge faced and every finish line crossed. This is just the beginning; I’m excited for what lies ahead in my triathlon journey!
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Coach Dax for his incredible guidance and support throughout my personal journey. From the moment I started working with him, I began to see changes in myself that I never thought were possible. Coach Dax helped me become not just a better athlete, but a better person overall.

He’s not just a coach who teaches you skills; he’s a mentor who takes the time to understand you as an individual. Through his guidance, I learned the importance of discipline, resilience, and perseverance—not only in sports but in life itself. Coach Dax has a unique way of helping you push beyond your limits, not just physically but mentally and emotionally as well.
One of the most valuable lessons he taught me was the power of self-belief. There were moments I doubted myself, but Coach Dax’s unwavering belief in me helped me overcome my fears and achieve goals I never thought were possible. He always reminded me that growth comes through discomfort and that each setback is just a stepping stone to success.

I can honestly say that my journey with Coach Dax has been transformative. He’s not just a coach, but a true mentor who cares about your success in all areas of life. I’m incredibly grateful for his wisdom, encouragement, and the positive impact he’s had on me. Thanks to him, I’ve become more confident, focused, and determined to continue growing.
