Hello Team,
I hope you are all bundled up and holding down from the storm. This week we have the upcoming race with Special Olympics at Waterfront Park in Clermont, FL. So, please review this week’s schedule.
Athlete Highlight: Kellie Overly
What’s your go-to pre-race meal that never fails to fuel you up and make you smile?
First Watch banana nut pancakes
Tell us about a hilarious race moment that still makes you laugh when you look back on it.
My second Ironman 70.3 Hawaii, I had a two piece kit that a small portion of my skin on my back was exposed when I was in aero on the bike. I FRIED!! My husband said it looked like a smile from its shape. The tan from it lasted an entire year and he laughed every time he saw it. I make sure to always cover it now.
If you could create a new triathlon event combining three completely random activities, what would they be and why?
I’m would do any three events as long as there was no running.
Share a quirky habit or superstition you have before a race.
I go over my gear and make sure I have everything the night before/morning of an obnoxious amount of times.
Describe your perfect post-race celebration in three words.
Shower then sleep
If you were a superhero with triathlon powers, what would your name be and what abilities would you possess?
After the Ironman Peru 70.3, pretty sure I can swim anything
What’s the strangest thing you’ve seen while training for a triathlon?
I think in general, hearing about race strategies from athletes new to triathlon. It’s funny how much we think we know before we have done a race, and how stubborn we can be to listen to seasoned athletes. It’s probably a coping mechanism we need to have in order to be crazy enough to start this as a hobby
Invent a new triathlon gadget that would make training or racing more entertaining. What does it do?
It would be fun to track people in real time while racing.
If you had to compete in a triathlon using only household items as equipment, what three items would you choose and how would you incorporate them into the race?
Shoes, bike, googles
Lastly, share a motivational quote or funny mantra that keeps you going when the going gets tough.
Since my run in a race is notoriously horrendous, I usually say to myself “thank god I can swim and bike” to keep myself laughing instead of crying.
