Belinda Granger - Losing Sport, Finding Yourself


Listen Later

Belinda Granger spent years at the top of professional triathlon but when the time came to step away she surprised even herself with how ready she was


Letting go of racing did not feel like a loss. It opened the door to something more.


In this conversation Belinda reflects on how her identity shifted what she learned about herself outside of sport and how life after racing gave her a new sense of purpose. It is a story about moving on without regret staying connected to the sport you love and finding out who you really are when the finish lines disappear.
