About Us
Hey, I'm Don Oswalt. 2x Ironman World Championship and 2x 70.3 Ironman qualifier.
My journey with My Race Tatts started back in 2013 at Ironman Florida, and it all began with a simple idea: words have power.
The Power of Words and Visualization
Before my first Ironman, I discovered that visualization and intention can make or break a race. I grabbed a Sharpie pen and wrote inspiring words on my arms to set my mindset for race day.
Little did I know how much I would need those words as the race progressed. That ritual became my race day routine, helping me stay focused, motivated, and resilient.
But there was a problem.
From Sharpie to Temporary Tattoos
Sharpie pens aren’t made to withstand hours of sweat, heat, and water. By the end of a race, my words often faded, and so did my inspiration.
That’s when the idea hit me: why not create temporary tattoos that could last the entire race?
These tattoos could replace the Sharpie, helping athletes like me not just set intentions, but carry that inspiration through the toughest moments of a race.
