Kara’s race season was truly built on hard work and dedication. Last year, she faced the disappointment of not finishing Happy Valley 70.3, being pulled from the bike course. But this year, she came back stronger than ever – not only finishing the entire race well under the cutoff, but also putting together a nearly perfect Ironman build.

By sticking to her training, showing up consistently, and trusting the process, she crossed that red carpet and became an Ironman. What a powerful example of grit and perseverance. It is truly a story we are so proud to celebrate!
