Help Get Lydia to Kona – Ironman World Championship 2025!

If you’ve ever met Lydia, you know she’s not just an athlete — she’s a force of nature. After months (okay, years) of early mornings, sore legs, endless carb-loading, and a healthy dose of stubborn determination, Lydia has earned the impossible: a spot at the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.

This is the Olympics of triathlon — the most iconic endurance race on the planet — and Lydia qualified through sheer grit, guts, and gallons of electrolytes. Now, we want to help her cross the final finish line: getting there.

Between travel, accommodation, bike transport, race fees, and gear, the costs of racing in Kona stack up fast — and unfortunately, triathlon glory doesn’t come with a frequent flyer discount.

Your support will help cover:
• ✈️ Flights to Hawaii
• Bike transport + gear shipping
• Accommodation
• Race entry + equipment
• Fuel to keep her upright and caffeinated

Whether you can give $10 or $100, your donation is a step toward Kona — and a massive show of support for someone who’s trained through the rain, pain, and occasional existential crisis to be here.

Let’s help Lydia take her place among the world’s best. She’s already made us proud — now let’s get her to that legendary Big Island start line.

Mahalo + massive thanks,
Her wildly sweaty and deeply proud support crew
