About me


Back in 2017 I made the decision to complete my first Ironman. With a background in running and 1 marathon under my belt, I sought after the title of “Ironman”. I had no experience swimming, and I rode a BMX bike to get me to school. After 8 months of training, Mike Reilly announced me as an Ironman at Madison with a time of 11:38:36. My plan was to be a 1 and done, but I was hooked and completed my 2nd Ironman 5 weeks later. Fast forward 5 years and I crossed the finish line in Kona, Hawaii in 2022. Moving forward, my goal is to inspire and empower other athletes as I work towards my professional racing license.

Training Update: 1st Taper


Freedom Run 10K: 4th Place Overall
It’s been a while since my last post, and nothing too exciting has been happening. I am currently gearing up for Ironman Wisconsin in 10 days, and taper has officially started.

Lake Coeur d'Alene, Idaho: Mile 19/20



2 weeks ago I finished my last 20 mile run, and last weekend I completed my first (and only) 100 ride. I haven't been as good about getting the longer workouts in this season and with Ironman Louisville as my A race 6 weeks out, I will not be doing a complete taper. I plan on partially tapering down for IMWI, but will be using it as a building block going into IMLOU.






I don’t normally share my personal goals before a race, but here is what I want to realistically achieve.
1.    Top 10 Age Group finish
2.    Finish under 10:20 for both a course and Ironman PR
3.    Improve swim from last year (1:05)
4.    Hold 20mph on the bike
5.    Run under 3:30
