At 58 years old and 250 pounds, Deb Bahr faced a pivotal moment. Concerned about her future health and longevity, she made a decision that would transform her life: she would become a triathlete despite not having run since her 20s, biked since childhood, or properly swam before.
Deb's remarkable journey unfolds as she shares how she taught herself three disciplines from scratch through books, YouTube videos, and community support. With refreshing honesty, she recounts the inevitable rookie mistakes, including overtraining injuries, but emphasizes how perseverance led to completing her first sprint triathlon at age 60. What started as a health intervention evolved into a passion that saw her qualify for age group nationals in triathlon and discover a profound love for trail running.
The conversation takes us through Deb's most memorable race experiences, including her favorite triathlon where she overcame being kicked in the face during the swim, navigating steep hills in blistering heat, and using her signature "boob ice" cooling technique to finish with a smile while others dropped out. With equal parts humor and inspiration, she recounts completing a 50K ultramarathon at 64 and how her fitness journey influenced her son to tackle two full Ironman triathlons.
Now at 72, Deb continues to adapt her fitness routine through walking, biking, and Pilates, which has dramatically improved her functional mobility. Her doctor recently told her, "You're the healthiest 72-year-old I have ever known," validating years of consistent effort. For listeners contemplating their own fitness journey, Deb offers this wisdom: don't wait until your 50s, find activities you enjoy, and remember it's never too late to start prioritizing your health.
