Fun is Fast with Paula Findlay

Katie, Joanne, and Kelly return with insights, info, and inspiration from the world of women’s triathlon:

  • The 2025 season is heating up — The latest race results and what’s shaking up the women’s field.
  • The research gap is real — Kelly shares key takeaways from the Female Athlete Conference, including the shocking stat that only 6% of sports science research was conducted solely on female athletes.
  • Our research wish list — And the hosts dive into the studies they wish existed on pregnancy, low energy availability, and how the menstrual cycle impacts training.

Plus, Joanne chats with long-time pro triathlete Paula Findlay about what it really takes to stay in the sport for 20 years—and still be at the top of her game (and the top of a lot of podiums).

Paula opens up about how her approach to training has changed with a new coaching team, the lessons she’s learned (some the hard way), and why, for her, it’s no longer just about winning. It’s about having fun and loving the sport and living "that triathlon life."
