Episode Details

Have you ever wondered if you’re too old, too slow, or too new to try a triathlon? Think again. In this inspiring episode of the Find Your Edge Podcast, Coach Chris Newport sits down with Hilary Topper—author, coach, and triathlete who started her journey at 53.

Hilary shares her path from never stepping foot in a gym (and not knowing how to start a treadmill!) to writing her second book on triathlon: Unlocking the Triathlon: The Beginner’s Guide to Competing in a Triathlon. Together, we explore:

• The inclusive spirit of triathlon—why it truly is a sport for every body
• Overcoming injuries, burnout, and self-doubt
• How community and friendship make all the difference
• Simple tips for new triathletes (including why you don’t need fancy gear to start)

🎁 Bonus: Chris is giving away one free month of group triathlon training (a $99 value) to the first three listeners who send proof of purchase of Hilary’s book!
