  • Olympic Triathlete Katie Zaferes on Fueling the Pursuit (Ep 91)

    Olympic Triathlete Katie Zaferes on Fueling the Pursuit (Ep 91)
    Jul 31 2021

    “I call it an explorative mindset for racing… ‘Let's see what I can do,’ rather than, ‘This is what I need to do.’” - Katie Zaferes

    Today's guest is Katie Zaferes, a two-time Olympic Games qualifier and 2019 ITU World Triathlon Series Champion.

    For Katie, the road to Tokyo has been anything but smooth. We not only explore her mindset as a world class triathlete, we also talk about what’s been going on in her life since the onset of the pandemic, including the unexpected passing of her father earlier this year. 

    According to Katie, it was the combination of the “try it and see what happens” attitude instilled in her from both of her parents, as well as her father’s sneaky plan to get her into triathlons, that contributed to her becoming one of the world’s best. As we talked about her current preparations for Tokyo, we got insight into how she’s taken and applied the lessons she’s learned since her disappointing finish at the 2016 Rio Olympics. 

    We’re really excited to share our conversation with Katie with the summer Olympics just a few weeks away.

    (9:06) How has it been in Europe with Covid regulations?

    (12:22) “It's also been really cool because in 2019, almost everyone on our team had been on the podium for the world triathlon series. And in 2018 Joel had four out of six of the overall podium spots with our squad. All three men were on the podium for the overall, and then I was on it for the women.

    (16:36) A community of support during a challenging time…

    (19:02) “So I was like, okay, I'll do this with you, only to find out years later that he might've had a little sneaky insight that maybe I would be good at triathlon. Cause at that time I was running track and swimming and he was thinking, oh, well this could go somewhere.” A dad’s influence and a start in the sport…

    (23:44) “I call it an explorative mindset for racing… ‘Let's see what I can do,’ rather than, ‘This is what I need to do.’”

    (26:54) The many lessons from Rio and the benefits of a sports psychologist..

    (30:07) How tools in the toolbox made a difference on the bike…

  • Running for Real Host Tina Muir on Creating Change Through Conversations (Ep 90)

    Running for Real Host Tina Muir on Creating Change Through Conversations (Ep 90)
    May 27 2021

    “I genuinely believe that we should be learning our entire life. And there's a part of me that feels excited for when I'm 78 years old, and all the things I will have learned.”

    Difficult conversations can very often lead into areas of personal growth.

    Lifelong runner Tina Muir doesn’t shy away from these discussions as she builds her two successful running podcasts, Running for Real and Running Realized, and continues to challenge fixed mindsets.

    Timestamped Show Notes:

    (2:50) Growing up in a classically English town…

    (6:03) The difference between club sports and school sports…

    (8:13) “When I was coming up to my final year of college, people kept saying, ‘Are you going to go pro?’ And I was like, ‘What does that even mean?’” 

    (11:12) A lifestyle component to pursuing sports…

    (14:24) “I can absolutely see why she said that I wasn't committed. I was just plodding along, not really trying. But I did manage to pull it together for the final few races. And once I got through that part, it was not a question—running was a part of me.”

    (16:52) When commitment goes too far…

    (19:00) And then there’s those who don’t commit…

    (20:40) Do you have a fixed mindset or growth mindset?

    (23:08) The mission of Go Be More…

    (25:21) “To ignore your dreams, in my opinion, is really to ignore the opportunity to fully understand who you are before it's all said and done.”—Jon

    (26:50) Does the influence of others impact your mindset?

    (30:04) A surprising decision…

    (33:50) “Once I decided I'm done then I felt a huge relief... but I just couldn't get myself to say it. And even when I stopped, I think that was such a dramatic, emotional moment that I didn't know it was for sure. But once I said it in a calm, rational manner, after thinking about it for a few days, then it felt like a huge relief.”

    (34:29) A couple of new distractions… 

    (37:04) How much did you evolve as a podcaster?

    (39:40) Conversations that grew into a different platform…

    (41:21) Running For Real and Running Realized explained…

    (44:36) What does Go Be More mean to you...“Taking yourself beyond your comfort zone and stepping out to a place that feels like it's helping you to grow and evolve. And I genuinely believe that we should be learning our entire life. And there's a part of me that feels excited for when I'm 78 years old, all the things I will have learned. I'd say it's just what we've been talking about today. Like stretching yourself and taking that deep breath and then doing it anyway, whatever scares you, take a deep breath and go for it.”

  • 3-Time Olympian Shannon Rowbury on Performing, Maintaining Balance, and Staying Authentic (Ep 89)

    3-Time Olympian Shannon Rowbury on Performing, Maintaining Balance, and Staying Authentic (Ep 89)
    May 20 2021
    “My successes tend to come after moments that felt like my biggest failures.” - Shannon RowburyIt’s easy to view great athletes through just the lens of their training and results. But in this episode, you’ll be reminded there’s so much more to a balanced life.Shannon authentically shares her thoughts on dance, recovery, competing, advocating, and parenting. Her intentional approach to every life endeavor is refreshing and inspiring.Show Notes(3:10) Life now, growing up with Grandma and Irish dance…(8:15) How did the performance aspect of dance translate into successes in running?(11:10) “The more that you can be present, and react to what's coming around you and utilize those strengths and skills that you've sharpened through training, that's when you have the highest likelihood of success.”(14:22) The family bonding experience of dance and sports…(17:16) A transition to running and the impact of a coach…(20:25) “The role of a coach is to lay the fundamentals... if you want to be good, if you want to be great, it's not going to happen at the end of high school. And probably not even at the end of college, it's going to happen through year after year of hard work... And it's teaching those lessons of how to show up and be a good teammate and ultimately reach that mountaintop over years of consistent effort.”(23:22) An injury and a career turning point…(24:51) “After feeling my feelings, which I did for a little bit, I really focused on understanding the root of the problem and making a thoughtful and patient plan to be back to my best fitness in a year from where I was rather than, "I have to be ready by the fall," or, "I have to be ready by indoors…" Let's just go through this recovery process in the way that it needs to be done.”(29:04) Getting “permission” to be patient…(31:31) The secret to getting the best out of yourself when the stakes are the highest…(35:28) “I describe it like the pendulum. You can't swing this way if you don't swing that way. And, so really trying to find that balance in life so that you can be ready and willing and in the right space, mentally, physically, and heart, when it matters most.”(36:00) Imagining More…(40:25) On deciding to be a Mom… “I wanted to make sure she knew that she was my first priority, and I'm trying to make sure that she doesn't ever resent running because it took me away from her. I try to include her in what I'm doing as much as possible. And it brings me such joy that she gets to interact with world champions and Olympians and incredible, incredible people.”(44:15) “If you create a structure for success, our women will come back and do amazing things, but we really need to make it a more supportive, inclusive system.”(45:42) What does Go Be More mean? “I'm really proud to have been someone that didn't let the norms around me set my expectations for myself and that instead it was really, how can I go be more? How can I be the best version of myself? And as much as possible, trying to define what that is, rather than what has been. And so to me Go Be More is being a trailblazer.”If you liked this episode, check out our interviews with Olympians Kara Goucher and Amy Acuff.Recorded April 30, 2021.References:Imagining More Foundation - websiteParity - website3-Time Olympian Shannon Rowbury Turning 2020 Into Miracle Season - TeamUSA.orgGuest:Shannon Rowbury - website | Instagram | TwitterHosts:Bryan Green - bryan@gobemore.co, maketheleapbook.comJon Rankin - @chasejonrankin, Go Be MoreLinks:Go Be More Podcast - Episodes | Instagram | FacebookGo Be More websiteGo Be More YouTube ChannelProduction and EditingCreatives Collective Marketing
