In this episode of the Amateur Triathlete Dad podcast, join me as I recount my recent Olympic distance triathlon experience in Madrid. Discover the challenges I faced, including a slower race time compared to my previous event, and the reasons behind this performance gap. I dive into each discipline, from navigating through a non-wetsuit swim and tackling hilly bike courses to overcoming stomach cramps during the run.

Learn about the key takeaways from this race, including valuable insights into training and race-day strategies. Despite the obstacles, the support of my family and the joy of crossing the finish line made this journey worthwhile. Tune in as I share personal reflections on resilience, growth, and the importance of self-compassion in the world of amateur triathlons.
