📣 Tsola's Race Day Series
IRONMAN 70.3 Waco is just one of the many races in my Race Day Series. More updates, support opportunities, and ways to follow along will be shared as I continue this journey. Stay tuned — the best is yet to come.
📍 Where (IRL & Virtual Tracking Available)
Location: Waco, Texas — the event is kicking off at Indian Spring Park, 101 North University Parks Drive, Waco, TX 76701.
The swim starts at Pecan Bottom Park, and the finish line is next to the historic Waco Suspension Bridge at Indian Spring Park.
🏊🏿🚴🏿🏃🏿What & How
It’s the HALF IRONMAN 70.3 distance:
• 1.2 mile / ~1.9 km swim (Brazos River)
• 56 mile / ~90 km bike ride
• 13.1 mile / ~21.1 km run
The route includes scenic parts of Waco—along the river, through Texas countryside, finishing with a dramatic run across the historic bridge
👀 How You Can Be Part of It
👨👩👧👦 In Person:
If you’re local or can make the trip, it would be amazing to see you cheering along the course—especially near the swim start, the transitions (T1/T2), or the finish at the Suspension Bridge. I’ll share more specific spots as I plan.

🛏️ Travel & Lodging
Hotels (close to race start/finish):
* Hilton Waco (walking distance to Indian Spring Park)
* Courtyard by Marriott Waco
* Hotel Indigo Waco-Baylor
Airbnb:�Plenty of options within 5–15 minutes of the race site — downtown, Baylor area, and near Magnolia Market are popular spots.
Driving Down Race Morning (from Dallas):
* It’s about a 1.5–2 hour drive from Dallas to Waco.
* To arrive before the 6:30 AM start, I recommend leaving no later than 4:00 AM to allow time for parking, walking to the course, and grabbing a good spot to watch.
RSVP here if you’ll be watching in person or tracking virtually — I’d love to know who’s with me on race day!
