The legacy program states you must complete 12 IRONMAN races over 12 years. My first race in Lake Placid no longer counts towards that target. The races that count are from my Kalmar 2017 race. So, currently, I’ve done 4 out of 12 races.

• Lake Placid 2011,
• Kalmar 2017
• Copenhagen 2022
• Nice 2023
• Copenhagen 2023
• 2024 – 1 race
• 2025 – 2 races
• 2026 – 2 races
• 2027 – 2 races
• …end of 2028 (potential legacy qualifying year)

Yep, I may not be able to qualify based on time currently but the long-term goal is to qualify for the IRONMAN Legacy Program.

Since triathlon training is pretty much a lifestyle for me since 2009 archiving and training towards this goal should not be extremely out of reach barring injuries, health, and other circumstances beyond my control.

As always writing it down starts the journey, so here we go…..choose one
