A Lockdown In Paradise Is Still a Lockdown!
Every athlete has an interesting story to tell. Actually, all people have interesting stories, but this is a blog about triathlon, so I’m going to stick to athletes for now.
I became aware of an athlete in my coaching group who was in a very strict lockdown for quite some time. Her conditions were far more restrictive than mine so I wanted to find out how she was coping. What resulted from the interview was not only a look at her life in the era of COVID-19, but an interesting story of how she became hooked on triathlon.
Since the interview, her restrictions have been eased, but not by much. If you have the time, I encourage you to listen to her story here and take a look at her pictures in the gallery below.
