MOTHER......We have a PRO.... Nat Lawrence recently re-obtained her pro licence after winning Outlaw 2023 and crossing the line with her 4 children!!!

Buckle in for a great chat about some of the brutalities of the sport at an early age and some of the pressures which led her to develop an eating disorder. After navigating that she then has devoted her life to the sport through a coaching business and setting up a triathlon club.

Nat talks through the importance of why having her own time within her busy life really benefits her children and husband and why it is so important to have something that gives you that head space.

Now she is balancing out everything in her life and enjoying racing pro again after being off the pro scene for nearly 15 years.

Michael is otherwise known as 'The Urban Challenger' and balances a full time job, family (inlcuding two young children) and all the training and mad challenges he gets up.

Throughout the conversation Michael gives great insight into the balance of his training and talks about how being an ambassador has helped his journey in numerous ways.

Laura Daly has an impressive CV of triathlon results at age group level already and this year she is hoping to make that next step and take her racing to the next level.

Laura loved the sport from a young age but after a bit of a gap got back into it and barely made the bike cut off in one of her first attempts at a full distance. Some years later she is now looking to obtain the pro license.

All the while Laura holds down a busy day job, which does lends itself nicely to assisitng in training for one of the disciplines.

Zack has had an incredible rise through the triathlon ranks since taking up the sport. With a background in rowing and cycling once he transitioned into triathlon he found that this served him well.

Taking on Challenge Roth last year and finishing with an incredible time of 9:17:27 I spoke to him the week before he returns to one of the biggest triathlon races in the world.

Zack also has a job working with the UCI and gets exposire to the biggest cycling events in the world. Even with working with a sport so close to triathlon he still finds the balance of training and life as hard as we all do.

Listen in to see how he achieves training, competing at the pointy end and how he found out he was going to the Ironman World Championships in Nice over Kona.

Chloe has burst onto the Age group Triathlon scene in the past two years with a series of big age group wins at races across Europe despite being relatively new to the sport.

After finding her brothers mountain bike in the garage during lockdown she decided to give triathlon a crack and in her first race finished 4th overall.

Her story is great and her future is bright.

We talk about the right goggles to do the job, being Super-Aero on the bike and how running balls out every run maybe isn't always the best method.
