Maia du Toit's triathlon journey is a testament to relentless improvement. Based in Courtenay, BC, she completed her first 70.3 in 2023 in over 6 hours with a 2-hour half marathon. Just two years later, she's running 1:30 70.3 half marathons, dramatically improving her swim and bike splits, and consistently landing on age group podiums while fighting for top overall positions.

For Maia, triathlon is about community and inspiration: "I truly believe that this sport is for everyone." In 2025, she delivered breakthrough performances including 1st age group at T100 Vancouver and multiple podium finishes across 70.3 races. When she's not training, she's passionate about inspiring women, first-timers, and single-sport athletes to explore triathlon. Fully committed to bringing the sport to her Vancouver Island community, Maia is just scratching the surface of her potential as she prepares for her first full distance Ironman.
