Michael Mckinney was one of two recipients of the 2025 IM Tri Scholarship! This scholarship was created to help break down barriers and make it possible for passionate athletes to compete in the IRONMAN 70.3 Washington, Tri-Cities event.

This year, Michael McKinney has been selected from a highly competitive group of applicants who exemplify resilience, dedication, and a deep love for the sport—despite facing personal or financial challenges that previously stood in their way.

“Being selected for the IM TRI program is the next chapter in my transformation journey. I found sobriety in 2016, and soon after, I discovered that I could be my own engine. This challenge represents everything I’ve worked toward.”
