Help Svetlana Compete at the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship
From Olympian to Ironwoman - You Can Be Part of Her Journey
Hi, my name is Svetlana Karpeeva - I’m a mom of two boys, a swim coach, and an athlete who represented Russia at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
After retiring from competitive swimming, I dedicated myself to helping others through coaching. But deep inside, I still had the drive to challenge myself - and that’s how I found triathlon.
In just two seasons, I qualified for the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Marbella, Spain, taking place in November 2025.
This is a dream I’ve worked for - not as a sponsored pro, but as a mother, mentor, and everyday athlete training before sunrise, between school runs, and after coaching swim practice.
Now I need your help to get to the start line.

Why It Matters
This journey isn’t just about one race. It’s about showing my children and my students that dreams don’t expire - that it’s never too late to pursue greatness, push boundaries, and believe in yourself.
Your donation, big or small, will help me proudly represent our community - not just as an athlete, but as a mom, coach, and woman chasing her dream with everything she’s got.

Thank you for your support - for believing in this journey.
