I’m an IronWoman 🥹❤️ First 70 3 Ironman completed and I had the most wonderful time doing it Zell am See - Kaprun area is absolutely amazing, I could not stop singing and dancing while on my bike and on my run (had loads of smiles from people watching the race 🤣), enjoyed every second of it (except for the steep uphill at the end of the long climb, but it was love through pain nevertheless), it was incredibly cute to see all local people supporting and also watching wildlife on the route (such as funny goats playing and rolling down the hill) I loved it, I would definitely recommend it and I would do it again
A couple of years ago I couldn’t imagine myself doing it and looked at the people who completed a half ironman with lots of respect Even after I signed up and until very recently, I had no idea how I would complete the swim Also, I did some serious training but I’ve never done a 90km ride non-stop (would always stop for coffee and cakes in the middle 😂) either Now I had to do a swim, a ride, a run and all the transitions at one go without getting too tired And I made it 🥹 only by the very end when I had 3 or 4km of running left my body started feeling quite tired and I got a bit lightheaded Crossed the finish line feeling strong and very much alive though
This race definitely wasn’t my solo achievement
