Link to Part A

My two Ohana guests today share a number of ideas that have propelled them to the top of the podium in world events in 2022.  They are both in their 50’s; they both believe in doing more than just swimming, biking and running to stay in shape; and they believe the records they are setting are only there to push other women to break them.

Part A
My first guest, Dede Griesbauer, is currently the oldest pro triathlete on the planet at the age of 52.  She smashed the 50 - 59 age group record at the Ultraman World Championship in 2022 where she topped the women’s podium against, what Steve King states is, one of the toughest women's fields to face off on the big island.  Dede proudly coaches in the Julie Dibbens crew and is also a broadcaster for Ironman Live when not training or racing herself.  

Part B
The second guest is Yvonne Timewell, amateur triathlete from Penticton, BC, who won the 2022 Ironman World Championship in the 55-59 age group.  Yvonne used the toughness she learned on day 3 of the Ultraman Canada race in 2014 to propel her to multiple podium finishes in Kona over the years. 

Both guests share great stories and tips that will surely entertain and help any athlete.
