Living as a Pro Athlete Couple, Motivation, and Balance

My guests today are Sarah and Ben True. Sarah and Ben are a professional athlete couple living and training in New Hampshire. Ben is a professional runner who holds the American road record in the 5k and has represented the US multiple times in cross country and track. Sarah is a professional triathlete and 2x Olympian for the US in both London and Rio. She’s won a silver medal and two bronze in the ITU World Championships and has since stepped up to compete at the Ironman distance.

This was a fun episode, in part because it was our first episode with two guests. We had a lively conversation about a variety of topics including the strain your body takes as endurance athletes, what it’s like to live with another professional athlete, training solo versus training in groups, how they approach nutrition, and what it takes to keep motivation high.
