🌺 KONA 2026 | IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

I WAS READY. MY BODY WASN’T.

Months of training. Thousands of kilometres. Countless sacrifices. I arrived in Kona in the best shape of my life.

But Kona had other plans.

🌊 The Pacific Ocean hit hard. Heavy waves and severe seasickness turned the swim into a battle. From that moment, something was wrong.

🚴 On the bike, the power was gone. My stomach refused nutrition, while the heat and wind took their toll.

🏃 By the marathon, the goal had changed. It was no longer about the clock. It was about finding a way forward.

One kilometre.One step. One decision at a time.

GIVE UP. OR KEEP GOING.

I kept going.

That night, a high fever hit, followed by a viral illness. Whether it had already affected me during the race, I’ll never know for sure.

🏁 12:12:02. Not the race I had planned, but one of the most meaningful finishes of my life.

Because sometimes victory isn’t measured by the clock. It’s measured by the moments when giving up would have been easier.

❤️ THE PEOPLE BEHIND MY FINISH LINE

Vanessa (@vanessameutzner )— You worried, fought alongside me and never doubted my strength. ❤️

🌺 KONA MADE ME STRONGER.

Sometimes the body cannot deliver what the mind has planned. But the mind can still decide what happens next.

DREAM BIG. KEEP FIGHTING. NEVER GIVE UP.

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

Mahalo, Kona. 🤙🌺

Desde que empecé a hacer larga distancia, tenía dos sueños: correr el Ironman de Hawái y el Challenge Roth. Son de los triatlones de larga distancia más importantes a nivel mundial.

Hawái lo he podido competir 4 veces. Roth llevo mucho tiempo intentando poder competir en esta prueba, pero por diferentes circunstancias no he podido. Al final, este año, con muchas dificultades y gracias a las personas cercanas que me han ayudado mucho, he podido estar en la salida de este gran triatlón.

En la natación, me coloqué a la izquierda pensando en ir lo más recto posible cerca de las boyas. El problema es que todos estábamos pensando lo mismo, y al dar la salida empezó una batalla recibiendo muchos golpes. El tiempo se me fue mucho más de lo que había previsto: 1:11, y me dio mucha rabia. Pero no estaba todo perdido, el día era muy largo.

La parte ciclista ya fue diferente; en la primera vuelta nos estuvo lloviendo mucho, pero estas carreteras te permiten rodar bien. Intenté centrarme en los vatios normalizados y no cebarme; al final, la bicicleta en 4:41.

En la maratón, empecé un poco más rápido de lo que me había dicho mi entrenador, Iván Muñoz. Poco a poco me fui situando al ritmo establecido, lo que me ayudó a poder terminar la maratón en 2:59. Al final, finisher en el Challenge Roth con 8:56 y en el puesto 5 de mi categoría.

Muy contento con las sensaciones y la experiencia. Este logro es una prueba de que con esfuerzo y el apoyo de los seres queridos, los sueños se pueden alcanzar. ¡Gracias a todos los que creyeron en mí!
