Describe a little bit about yourself and your interest in triathlon
I’m Nicole Hipp and I am an endurance athlete, Ironman 70.3 finisher, marathoner, and certified strength and nutrition coach. My journey started with collegiate swimming and continued through Army National Guard military service, where I built the grit and discipline I bring into every workout. Now, I combine my love for sport with a passion for helping others grow stronger (physically and mentally). I believe real progress comes from consistency, balance, and training with purpose.
