This needs to be bumped to the top- chick is actually trying to claim she is legit doing this-
She already swam a mystery distance in a pool and published she did her first Ironman Distance Tri in 14hrs hahaha. As if clocks stopping to take a rest is actually a thing when discussing a time achievement. Lol
I hope people rip her if she continues to blow smoke.
Apparently there was a misunderstanding with the pool and her coach claims (through Instagram comments) that if they find the pool distance was not legit they will add a whole extra day of a full Ironman distance. Some suggest the pool was almost 8 meters short per lap.
I don't think this feat is possible but I commend them for owning up to a possible first mistake and trying to make it right. I'm curious to see what else unravels if this is the first day.

Just what the world needs another "look at me" I'm going to save the children of Haiti by putting myself through some pseudo-grueling physical endeavor to raise some funds that will not only bring her more Instagram followers, but will likely be misspent on actual humanitarian needs. Vast sums of money have been spent on trying to solve and alleviate poverty across the globe. The sentiments and good intentions to help the poor often do more harm than good. Underlying this desire to advertise one's desire to help are often hypocritical and vain psychological motives. Programs that tackle the long term systemic causes of poverty are the ones that don't look pretty and get the least amount of attention. Haiti has been a basket case for years, politically, economically, and socially. Real change takes time and patience for hearts and minds to change. Actual poverty can be alleviated temporarily fairly easily, but Spiritual poverty is hard to dismantle.
Running with the children of Haiti with your muscles and tattoos is very inspiring.
M.A.G.A...
Awesome post. A family member, a medical worker, was down there twice for several months, and says nothing gets done without bribery.corruption is endemic.
More concerning is all the charity money? If you look at the orphanage last social media the address is her own, so she's collecting all funds and distubuting them however she sees fit?
She also claims on her instagram 14 hours was her time including breaks. The bullshit is so thick.
Its shorter than that did you see the video of her swimming? My mom swims faster, and she's 80.
Taking a “travel day” today because planning out how to get two days of this thing done efficiently was just too tall of a task...
Yikes, she must have quite the team in place.
Is she a hobby jogger?

Bingo.
Where do you find that info on the charity address being hers? The PO Box listed on socials appears to be registered to the orphanage. I find potentially stealing charity money to be far worse than lying about exercising.
While I am loathe to criticize people and their charitable efforts, this woman really wants you to know how much she cares about this orphanage. She really is a good person, guys.

She also wants you to know that she loves taking selfies and that you should follow her Instagram page. Oh and the charity thing.
Oh. She also has a kid or two.
Three.
Runner>Ironman >Hobbyjogger >Crossfit person>Kenyan doper?
The average finishing time for an ironman is 12.5 hours. She's a sub-average athlete in any of the three disciplines. Yet, we are supposed to believe that she will finish 50 of these in a row while also traveling roughly 10,000 miles across the country, eating 6000-8000+ calories daily, and sleeping. How out of touch with reality are people these days?
Step 1: Get fit
Step 2: Get on IG
Step 3: Get followers
Step 4: Profit!
She will be coming through my town on a day that I will be leaving town. What a shame!
Is Instagram the only way to follow this endeavor? She posts a picture and a brief summary of her 20 hour day? That's all the insight an inquiring mind gets?
Where are our Virginia Beach LetsRun posters? This pathetic fake is supposed to do her first today in VA Beach. I noticed several people asked her on Instagram where she was doing it and she never answered. She knows people are going to show up to disprove her success.
