Mum of 3 to Kona Finisher: How Jo O’Regan Qualified for Team GB
This week on the Agegroup Multisport Podcast, we’re joined by the incredible Jo O’Regan—a world-class runner turned Ironman powerhouse with one of the most refreshingly honest journeys in endurance sport.
Jo’s story starts on the roads, where she built an elite marathon career: wins at Chester, New Forest, and Edinburgh, podium finishes at Manchester, a top-5 at London, and a blistering 2:40 PB at the 2022 London Marathon. She ran for England and earned an invite to the Kew Gardens Olympic Trials—only for injury to pull the rug out at the peak of her running form.
What came next changed everything.
Forced to pivot, Jo threw herself into swimming, then cycling, and by late 2021 signed up for her first ever triathlon—Ironman Vitoria-Gasteiz. She didn’t just finish… she came 3rd, qualified for Kona, and caught the Ironman bug hard (despite imposter syndrome, no TT bike, and zero triathlon experience).
We dive into the mindset shift from pure runner to all-round triathlete, dealing with setbacks and mechanicals (including a heartbreaking DNF at Roth), and leaning into strengths while owning weaknesses. Jo also shares her unique and fearless approach to swimming, racing long-distance triathlons entirely breaststroke—clocking a 1:14 swim at Outlaw and 1:19 non-wetsuit at Kona.
This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and rewriting the rules of what “doing it right” in triathlon really means. If you’ve ever felt like an imposter, struggled with injury, or wondered if it’s too late to pivot—this one’s for you.
