Welcome to another episode!
Today's episode is with Sophie Bubb, a mum of 2, former ironman triathlete and runner who has just sold her home to spend the next few years living on a catamaran and sailing the world with her family.
Sophie was athletic before she had her boys - she sailed competitively then spent a few years travelling the world skating, skiing and surfing.
Sophie stayed active during her pregnancies but had her boys very close together and found that she suffered more pregnancy related injuries in her second pregnancy. That didn't stop her from having an epiphany in a birthing pool and deciding that if she could have a baby she could do anything..which led her to entering and winning Challenge Weymouth at age group level. As a result she qualified for the World Championships and Kona and spent the next 6 years racing iron distance events.
Sophie couldn't have achieved so much without support and sees her athletic success very much as a family adventure. It was so inspiring talking to Sophie, I hope you enjoy it.
