Without a Goal on the Calendar, Do You Still Count as an Athlete?
Most of us define ourselves by the training plan, the race on the horizon, the number pinned to our chest. But what happens when that’s gone — through injury, retirement, or just life getting in the way?
In this episode, Simon and Beth dig into the messy subject of identity in sport:
A conversation every athlete will face sooner or later.

Battle Ready reminder:
WE DON'T RUST, WE RISE!
