Friendship Is Fuel. Who Made Who Buy It? With Georgina “GeeTex” T. and Dr. RoJenia “RoJo” Jones

Friendship is fuel, and sometimes it sounds like, “Gee Tex made me buy it,” or “RoJo’s reviews,” and maybe even a little revenge. But ultimately, it is because the friendship fine print says so.

What starts as a running joke about gear purchases becomes a deeper conversation about trust, consistency, and choosing to keep showing up for yourself and for each other. In this episode of Tri Beginner’s Luck, Georgina “Gee” Tex and Dr. RoJenia “RoJo” Jones talk about the kind of friendship that quietly carries you through injuries, DNFs, deferred races, and the moments when belief wavers.

They share how their friendship began at a Fast Chix training camp and became the foundation for everything that followed. From entering triathlon without a bike or confidence in the water, to navigating injury, strict nutrition changes, and the discipline required to stay in the sport long term, their paths were not linear. There were setbacks, self-doubt, and moments when the goal felt far away. And still, they kept going.

Ironman California became the place where all of that effort and belief converged. Along the way, we laugh about gear purchases, debate real food versus gels, and get real about what consistency actually looks like when you are balancing work, family, health, and big goals. This episode is for beginners, for those returning after a setback, and for anyone who needs a reminder that progress does not require perfection. It requires commitment, community, and the courage to try again.

Let’s tri this !
