Evan went from being a weak young guy with eating disorders in high school to just recently getting his pro-license with a series of impressive results!

Also a professional double-bass orchestra player, Evan even talks about how his musical career fits in with his Triathlon-isms.

This episode features - Jeff Fairbanks (aka the 'Prince of Pain'), a dad, husband & enthusiastic surfer turned triathlete who - a couple years ago, took on this 21-day challenge of doing 21 70.3s in 21 different cities in 21 consecutive days. We talk about his journey before, during and after that experience of his, and much more.

This weeks guest is Sarah Watson - relatively new to the sport of Triathlon, Sarah did her first race just a few years ago. However, she has already qualified for & competed in the 70.3 World Champs. But that is not what makes her story amazing! Despite all of the physical feats she has accomplished, her greatest victory has been within herself; a veteran of the Australian Armed Forces, her tours of duty, especially in the intense combat environment of Iraq, left invisible but lasting scars. She has wrestled with the demons of PTSD, Anxiety & Depression. And with the help of cycling & Triathlon, she has come out the other side with lasting insights into the importance of living in the moment. Now, as she sets her sights on her first full Ironman, she shares with us a message of resiliency & healing through this sport of Triathlon, that we all love.

Ep. #6 🔥🎙features Chris Choi, a kind, shy, strong and honest - designer, tattoo-enthusiast and LGBTQ triathlete - who has dealt with and overcome multiple challenges of childhood bullying, drug addiction, depression, suicidal thoughts and mental illness. Chris was very open, raw and honest about his experiences and journey, his passion for racing, and how Triathlon has saved his life. This man took up Triathlon only 4 years ago and has already done 6 IMs, 15+ 70.3s, multiple marathons, and even some extreme Triathlons. As he says himself - once an addict, always an addict. But he's been strong and fortunate enough to make that addiction a healthy one. Think it was an insightful and important episode, so please do have a listen and share with friends & family. If we're able to help just ONE person through it, it will have been worth it.

Ep. #5 of the H.o.T Podcast features Ginny Cataldi (@ginnylovestri24) - a mom of two kids, multiple time IM Kona finisher & Boston Marathoner, with tons of podiums/wins under her belt across various distances, & above all else - a badass human-being & a source of inspiration to many! Hope you enjoy the episode!

Hope you enjoy the episode!
