We're Back B*tches #2: Getting more women into triathlon with USAT CEO (and Kona first-timer) Vic Brumfield

We're Back B*tches #2: Getting more women into triathlon with USAT CEO (and Kona first-timer) Vic Brumfield

USAT CEO and first-time Kona racer Vic Brumfield joins the show to share what inspired her to take on the Ironman World Championship and how she's approaching race day.

They then dive into what it takes to bring more women into multisport and barriers women face—returning to racing after pregnancy, the time and financial demands of training, the need for more family-friendly race options and accessible coaching, and just seeing other women do it.

Speaking of: We also hear from Ironman champ Skye Moench, who is making her much-anticipated post-partum return to professional long-course racing — with the Ironman World Championship as her very first race back! Skye talks about her mindset heading into the race, how "fit enough" is good enough, and the challenges and changes of getting to this start line.
