Episode 3: My Story
So you might wonder what the heck is this mom of a teenage daughter doing in Ironman and The World’s Toughest Challenge?
Nope! I’m not a superhero.
Really, I’m just a mom who’s passionate about building on my skills and experiences. And joining these amazing marathons, triathlons, and adventure races are what lights up my fire!
So today, I want you guys to get to know me better (shit and all – like literally!)
Meet my best friend, Prianka Nandy, who will interview me today. I wanted to share more about myself so people could understand the context that I bring to my interviews.
In this episode, you will hear:
Shitting in my pants at the Kona Ironman World Championships
The Health First approach
How your journey and your goal are married to each other
How to manage your stress bucket as an athlete
My first triathlon experience and how I’ve built on my experiences
Lessons from my adventure racing experience
The difference between adventure racing and Ironman
What it was like to be our team’s navigator on the World’s Toughest Challenge
Join the adventure!
