These tears at the finish-line of Ironman Australia after crossing with a 46 min AG win 🥇 (which also landed me 1st female overall in the age graded rankings) are SO much more then satisfaction from a good race. All the emotions came to surface when I reflected on all I’ve been through in the last decade and the demons I’ve battled in my mind. Since having Kai has produced my most joyous moments but also some of my darkest days. I wasn’t sure I would ever line up for a full Ironman again.
This was an 11 week build, with 100% bike focus, 15 hrs a week total avg, only a few over. Far from a perfect race but my bike power was there on the day and was absolutely stoked for that.
This race gave me a huge amount of confidence for a proper build to my 6th Kona next year🌺  Thanks from the bottom of my heart to everyone for all the love, I really felt it before and after the race and I’m stoked to be back❤️.
I’m also thankful I don’t have to do another one until next October 🤣
The icing on the cake was having Kai out there cheering all day for mummy 🫶#ironman #ironmantraining #ironmancoach #trisutto #teambarnesmultisport

As my mom would say, it’s gettin’ down to the nitty gritty 😱 Speaking of grit, all of mine definitely comes from her 💪
After 10 years away from racing Ironman, this feels like my first again and I’m just so grateful to be at this startline with the best I could do in the last 11 weeks. Thanks @garybarnes9 and Kai for supporting this and not being too concerned when you wake up and I’m not home cuz I’m out training 🤣 and reminding me I’m better then I think I am 🙏 Thanks Kai for letting mummy ride indoors whenever I needed too and just carrying on building Lego and happily sitting on deck while mommy did her squad 🙌
There are so many people I want to mention but I’ll save it for after the race. I’ve truely enjoyed this build, even the hard days and really felt to push from the big man upstairs to sign up and it’s just felt right since 💫
I’ll race smart and give my all- I’m truly grateful and excited to be out there tomorrow and see what I can do at the ripe age of 47 👵🏻 Nothin’ to not now but to do it!!!!
Thanks also to everyone who has donated to my charity @feelthemagicau (which helps support grieving kids) - you can still do so, link is in the bio ✅
See you all on the other side 🙏 #ironman #ironmantraining #ironmancoach #trisutto #teambarnesmultisport
