This week's podcast is up early, as we're coming to you from the inaugural Couples Championship in Tampa, Florida (happening Sunday, March 6, 2022), where 14 professional triathlete couples are facing off in a unique distance event, with a prize purse of $100,000. The event was dreamed up by Ben Atkins, who wanted to find a way to support professional triathletes in a line of work where it's incredibly hard to make a living. On the podcast we talk to Ben, as well as triathlon couple Justin and Jeanni Metzler, about why it's so hard to make a living and what needs to change in the industry.
