Insta Post of the Week: The pop singer, Mike Posner, has a long list of hits; but he’s also got some hits outside of the studio, too. He’s walked coast to coast of the United States, and summited Mount Everest. He’s your reminder that it’s never too late to cut the BS and chase the best, healthiest version of yourself.

Race Results of the Week

1. IRONMAN 70.3 Punta del Este

2. CLASH Miami (upcoming - this weekend!)

3. Tokyo Marathon

Tidbits

✅Climber takes on 70.3: Sasha DiGiulian, World Champion rock climber, took to the Latin American streets in Panama to complete a 70.3. She might have (literally) conquered mountains, but triathlon is a new sport to her; and her first tri was also her first 70.3. AMAZING.

✅Gatorade reimagines…water? Gatorade had a HUGE launch party last week to unveil their latest groundbreaking project; Gatorade Water. Yes; you read us right. No flavor, no bubbles, just…water. We’d say try some, but it’s actually sold out on their site.

✅Women Tri is BACK: If you’ve been in the triathlon scene for a few decades; you were probably around for the women’s only tris that seemed to be a dime a dozen. Then, as we progressed through the 2000s and 2010s, women’s only events have dwindled down to nearly nothing. Now, they’re slowly making a comeback and honestly - we’re here for it. It’s more than just making a pink logo and giving away pink shirts. Read how these event companies are making a difference in women’s sport.

✅Peloton - Ultrarunning Crossover: Susie Chan is one of the most popular Peloton instructors on their platform. While she knocks it out of the park in the studio; she admits that she’s an ‘average’ runner on the streets and trails. Take this as you may; but it shows us not all cardio is transferrable. Just because someone is in tip-top shape on a bike does NOT mean that transfers to being a knockout runner on the track. Keep grinding.
