My name is Zachary Bernier-Michaud

 I am a 20 year old French Canadian student and triathlete. I am writing to you to ask for your support and sponsorship as I pursue becoming Ironman World Champion.

I have been passionate about triathlon since I was 14 years old, when I discovered the sport through a school project. Since then, I have dedicated myself to improving my skills and performance in swimming, biking, and running. I have also developed a mindset and attitude of grit, which I believe is essential for achieving any goal in life.

I have competed in several triathlon and Ironman events, both nationally and internationally. Some of my achievements include:

• Setting a new U20 Ironman Triathlon world record in 2023, with a time of 8 hours, 44 minutes and 56 seconds¹. I finished 4th overall at the Ironman Arizona triathlon on November 19, 2023¹.
• Ranking 1st overall  at Ironman70.3  Coeur d’Alene 2024². 
• Ranking 1st overall amateur (6th with the professionals) at Ironman Canada 2024
• First overall Amateur at Chalnage Cap quebec middle distance race  2024
