We are so excited to have Rachel W, the new USA Triathlon National Champion in the Olympic distance for women 25-29, on the pod! She believes "triathlon has taught me how to be flexible through life. It’s a sport that never goes 100% according to plan and that’s exactly how life is. I've learned how to deal with challenges as they come and to make light of difficult situations. In the end things will always work out."

As a lifetime swimmer and former collegiate runner, Rachel does a great job explaining so much about triathlon. Some things we touch on are ....

• balancing training with a new career
• what to expect between transition 1 and transition 2
• racing on triathlon bikes versus other types of bikes
• being flexible when unexpected things crop up, like having a bike malfunction the day before the race
