  • S1E15 - Mary T Meagher, 1987 CWSA Award Winner

    S1E15 - Mary T Meagher, 1987 CWSA Award Winner
    Mar 18 2021
    Mary T. Meagher played a variety of sports when she was growing up but took most naturally to swimming and especially the butterfly stroke. The 10th of 11 children, she describes the sport of swimming as being very objective in training times and success. The boycott of the 1980 Olympics was devastating for many other Olympians but Mary was only 14 at the time and not yet dreaming of being an Olympian. She was however competitive from a young age and explains the differences between collegiate and Olympic swimming, as well as her losses and failures. Mary speaks to her new found freedoms while at CAL, about winning the Honda-Broderick Cup, the transition after her third Olympics and the appreciation she had for having balance in her life. “Madame Butterfly”, as she was popularly referred to, shares the qualities that made her a champion and goes on to describe five fellow Olympic swimmers and past Honda Cup winners in the CWSA sisterhood. She also talks about the advantage of younger swimmers and disadvantage for older swimmers as they pivot in Olympic training and competition between the summer of 2020 and preparing for Tokyo 2021.

  • Coaching Changes Tactics

    Coaching Changes Tactics
    Mar 17 2021
    There’s a different style to this week’s show as Chris is joined by her friend Marci Kornegay, Director of Membership at WeCOACH, for a conversation about golf, coaching and how the pandemic has impacted women in the coaching profession. Marci’s first career was as a college golf coach until she got out of the sun and took a desk job. In her current position she has watched how women coaches have had to adjust to the pandemic restraints on their profession and how their coaching styles have adapted. We also hear how she learnt to adapt when she hiked the Appalachian Trail alone—a true test of character and resilience to an ever changing environment. Something we all have learned to a greater or lesser extent during the pandemic. Words of wisdom from a coach turned adventurer.

  • Tri This: S1E8 - Making the Best Transition

    Tri This: S1E8 - Making the Best Transition
    Mar 9 2021
    On this episode of Tri This, Dr Kirstin Lauritzen covers the details for an efficient transition. When she first started with Triathlon she didn't even know what a transition was and how to do it. She also realized that out of the many triathlon podcasts she listened to, nobody talked about it. For obvious reasons, people are more interested in how to make their swim, bike and run faster, but an efficient transition is important. Not to mention how overwhelming the racks filled with bikes can be if it's your first one. In this episode we cover it all. How to transition from the swim to bike and from the bike to the run. There's also some differences between local races and bigger races, like Ironman and other World Triathlon races. Transitioning well is actually quite critical and can be overwhelming at your first race. Make sure to check out this episode for some tips for being prepared.
