This was the first year for the 2018 IRONMAN© 70.3 in Waco, Texas. I begin my series of interviews through this event with Valerie Myers, an age group athlete that loves the pure joy of racing. We discuss what it is like to be a normal athlete and a beginner to the sport and more than that what it is like for the swim to be canceled. Thanks for coming on the show and spending some time with me Valerie, I look forward to following you in the years to come.
