How did everyone get *so* fast?! with Sara Gross

Two-time Ironman champ and current Feisty CEO Sara Gross joins the squad this week to talk about the epic results and how she's now trying new things at gymnastics and CrossFit.

And she wants to know: Is it normal for the pro women to all run sub-three-hour Ironman marathons now? What has led us to this point of massive speed and depth in the women's field?

• The epic race in Ironman Hamburg: Solveig Lovseth has now won four Ironmans in 11 months!
• Dumb comments about weight and performance, and why we're happy the pros are moving away from under-fueling
• The sabotage on the Hamburg bike course and if we need to get local communities more invested
• How many sprint triathlons could you do in a weekend?
• And what's changed in the triathlon landscape in Sara's career — has the sport gotten better or worse...

Plus, don't forget to join us for FeistyFest — try something new (not gymnastics, maybe handstands) or learn more about what you already love!

And submit your training and racing questions for our upcoming Coaches Corner episode.
