This memoir takes us through her journey into the world of Spartan Racing and how she transformed from a skinny, unathletic young girl into a top competitor in her age category. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

  • Aging and the mindset of resilience 
  • The benefits of exercise and functional fitness 
  • Why it’s never too late to start something new 
  • The mental and physical challenges of Spartan Racing 
  • Burpees and their role in training 
  • The impact of cancer and overcoming adversity 

This is one of our favourite episodes and it was an honour to share space with the beautiful Gwendolyn.
