Feisty Triathlon5 Joulu 2025

Should Dede Griesbauer become an influencer in retirement?

This week, as most of America recovers from their Thanksgiving food comas and Joanne winds down her race announcing season, we’re honoring the sunset of another iconic chapter in triathlon. The legendary Dede Griesbauer—yes, the 55-year-old powerhouse with 21 years of pro racing under her belt—joins us to celebrate her retirement and reflect on a career defined by an unwavering love of swim-bike-run.

And, no, she will not be returning to a job on Wall Street!

Dede gives us the scoop on what happened with Lisa Perterer's missed slot at Ironman Cozumel and helps us start to preview the final big race of the year at the T100 Qatar Final. Plus, how the pros have changed in her two decades and the amount of media obligations they have to deal with now.

What retirement actually looks like (Spoiler: It involves 12 hours of training/week)
How she knew it was time to hand in the pro card—and why it felt exactly right
Her hard-earned longevity secrets that have kept her competitive, fierce, and injury-resistant through five decades

Dede leaves us with a final reminder that feels especially appropriate as we round out the year: love the sport, enjoy the journey, and don’t forget to savor every moment along the way.
