MEREDITH KESSLER

Meredith grew up in Columbus, Ohio where she was a 4-sport athlete and was inducted into her high school's Athletic Hall of Fame. Meredith went on to receive a Division I athletic scholarship at Syracuse University where she participated in field hockey and track. After graduation in 2000, she used her graduation money to purchase her first triathlon bike and entered in a full Ironman (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, 26.2-mile run) two weeks later. From that moment on, she caught the spirit of Ironman competition and has not looked back. Since that first Ironman in 2000, Meredith has completed in over 60 full Ironman races all over the United States and the world. She is an 11-time full distance Ironman and 23-time half-distance Ironman champion... Home of professional triathlete and ironman champion Meredith Kessler.
