In this episode of The Everyday Ironman Podcast, we’re joined by Maiki Cofer, who lives just minutes from Ironman World Championship in Kona—aka the place every triathlete dreams of racing. A longtime volunteer at the World Championship, Maiki gives real insight into qualifying from Hawaii and why it’s still far from easy.

She shares her journey from a 2014 relay to her first Olympic-distance finish, racing Ironman 70.3 Hawaii multiple times, and we discuss the cost to race there when you don’t live on the island. We also talk Team Zoot, her role as a League of Garmin Captain, mental health, preventive surgery, and her powerful “Summer Joy Celebration” during recovery.

Oh—and Mike may or may not reveal his dolphin-powered swim strategy. 🐬
