Few athlete have have had as big an impact on the sport of triathlon as Chrissie Wellington. A 4-time Kona champion, Chrissie is the fastest woman to ever complete an IronMan distance event and has 5 of the fastest ever recorded results out of the all-time top 10.

As quick as she raced, she came and went retiring in 2011 undefeated at the IronMan distance after one of the toughest Kona victories by any competitor on the big island. This interesting conversation focuses on how triathlon changed Chrissie as a person, the impact it has had on her life and the what the pressure of being undefeated was like.
