What really happens when you sign up for race after race, year after year?  Endurance athlete Christina Balcer takes us behind the scenes of long-distance running, cycling, and the ultimate test—Ironman. From wild mid-race snack stories to the biggest myths about endurance sports, she keeps it real. We dig into the mental grind, the sting of setbacks, and the reality of post-race blues. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just endurance-curious, this episode is packed with laughs and perspective.
