Simply Triathlon with Dina & Chris
Welcome to the Simply Triathlon Podcast and thanks so much for listening!
We're Dina & Chris, a couple of age group triathletes, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts. Our goal is to share our knowledge and experience in triathlon, nutrition, epic races, lessons learned, fun stuff, hard stuff, bizarre stuff, and more!
Dina Grimaldi is a triathlon coach, nutrition coach, and personal trainer who followed her dad's footsteps in picking up triathlon. She quickly found out that it's not all that cool to be the first person out of the water, because it just means everybody and their mother is going to pass you on the bike.
Chris Kopcha is a triathlon coach, nutrition coach, personal trainer, and yoga teacher who kind of stumbled into the world of fitness after deciding to change careers after spending 10 years as a teacher. Coming into the sport of triathlon as a runner, she found it's been a great lesson in patience at the pool so as not to have to make up so much time on the bike and run.
Enjoy!!
**We do drop the occasional expletive; be aware if sensitive or listening around kids!**
Simply Triathlon with Dina & Chris
The New Ironman World Champs Qualification Process Is NOT Working for Women!
In this episode, we chat about the latest update regarding the new Ironman world championship qualification process...and how it is very much NOT working in favor of women.
We discuss the most recent Ironman's performance pool awards (spoiler alert - only ONE woman got a performance slot), surmise about how this could have happened, and hope that some changes happen very soon.
We also recap the women's Ironman world champs in Kona, which was quite an exciting and dramatic race.
