IRONMAN Wales: "Proving My Own Self-Worth" | Ep 464


Listen Later

This week Coach Rob chats to Team Oxygenaddict Tullia Turner about her successful full-distance debut at IRONMAN Wales.


Tullia's story is one that many listeners will resonate with, as you hear how she used triathlon as a force for good when she was in a tough place mentally.


Rob and Tullia chat about:

  • How Tullia's personal struggles motivated her towards IRONMAN glory...

    • Her challenging historical relationship with food and exercise...

      • How she managed her training around a busy, stressful work life as a teacher...

        • Adapting to training LESS but in a MORE effective way with Team Oxygenaddict compared to when she was self-coached...

          • Dealing with imposter syndrome and being one of a small number of female entrants...

            • The feeling of standing on the startline and knowing it's one of the most special moments in your life...

              • The importance of "protecting the second half of the run"...

                • The feeling of getting off the bike KNOWING you're going to be an IRONMAN...

                  • The mental boost of passing 500+ people on the run thanks to a brilliantly executed race strategy...

                    • Reflecting on the personal growth and immense self-pride that IRONMAN has enabled...

                      • The importance of recovery in Tullia's progress and preparation...

                        • The purity of a motivation like proving something to yourself rather than racing the clock or other athletes.
