So it begins…(TD-1)

Hi, I’m Felicity! I’m the tall one in the photo, and the much prettier one next to me is my wife, Hannah. This blog is all about my journey from running my very first half marathon to taking on Ironman Lake Placid in 2027. But before I get there, I’m starting with White Lake 70.3 this spring.

So… what is a 70.3? It’s a half-distance triathlon: a 1.2-mile swim, a 56-mile bike, and a 13.1-mile run.

Now, I’m not naturally gifted in any of these three sports. Not even a little. So I called in the experts. I’m training with Without Limits Charleston, and they’ve paired me with Coach Jen Bennett to help keep me aligned, accountable, and actually improving.

Today was my very first official training day with them! Since I just ran my half marathon two days ago, this week is intentionally light. Today’s workout was a 1600-yard swim followed by a 30-minute easy run.

So far, so good! I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.
