In this episode we talk about that Erin signed up for a Triathlon!! Then we go over La Quinta 70.3 Race Recap, end up on a bit of a tangent based on Kayla opening Instagram in the middle and seeing some sad news from a fellow professional triathlete.

We talk about the importance of having fun in racing, choosing to do races based on joy and excitement, and more!

Cheers!
