Emma loves all things cats, cows, and chocolate milk. Her passion for dairy and animals for dairy started while growing up on EL-Vi Farms in Newark, NY. She stays involved to this day at the farm by helping with community relations works like running the social media page and being the race director for the Dairy Discovery 5k that the farm and 3 other local farms host. When she is not working her day job in milk promotion at American Dairy Association North East, she can be found competing for Team Milk in Full distance Ironman triathlons and half & full marathons. Her training and racing allows her to reach the triathlon community online with the benefits of refueling with chocolate milk and make a beautiful community of friends.

In this episode we chat about:

  • Food systems, misconceptions about cows/dairy farming, stress is stress even for cows– just like us!
  • Getting into sports as an adult from dancing to racing ironman
  • Finding euphoria in an Ironman marathon
  • Learning about give and take during training for big goals/life– still having fun with the why behind sport
  • Learning that your value is not tied to the outcome of sport, work, etc.
  • Racing with your period; what’s normal what’s not
  • You can still achieve with your period– how can we adapt and overcome and train to be ready
  • Health over everything in longevity in sport
  • How to respect the training adaptation process and adjusting expectations and goals 
  • And more!
