If you listen to the Truth Nation Podcast at all, you know co-host Mark Garrett retired as a Chief, at the California Highway Patrol. What you may not know is he was also a member of the U.S. National Cycling Team and a multi-time National Champion cyclist. On this weeks’ episode, I speak with the Chief and his former cycling teammate Marcelo Arrue, about life as elite, international athletes. What got them interested in cycling? What sacrifices did they make along the way? Is it possible to compete at the highest level of a sport and hold down a full-time job as a police officer? How did they recover from the grueling training? What was it like to be a member of the 2000 Olympic Team in Sydney? Was there ever a temptation to take PEDs or blood dope and what are their thoughts on those who did? How do these two accomplished cyclists view former teammate Lance Armstrong today? A fun discussion with two of the most gifted and disciplined men you will meet. Give it a listen!!
