Every now and then you come across a unique individual who makes you take notice. Devon Cajuste is one of these unique individuals. He's never ran a triathlon...but he could excel at one right now, with absolutely no experience. He's also a former NFL Tight End for the Cleveland Browns, Green Bay Packers, and San Francisco 49ers. Devon was featured on HBO's Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Cleveland Browns this past NFL Pre-Season and became a fan favorite. He showed everyone who watched that there's more to football than blocking, tackling, and passing catches. He showed that it's not just about the paycheck and that spirituality plays a huge part in whatever path you're on. There's so much more to this amazing 7 Day Warrior and there was no way to cram it into 45 minutes! Hopefully you'll get an idea of who Devon is and if not, we promise to have him back!

Two-Time Ironman and now Ultra-Swimmer Rachel Griffin joins the 7 Day Warrior Podcast. I met Rachel about three years ago during a swim in Santa Monica.

If you're racing Rachel will be there with a custom sign, cheering you on. It's earned her the nickname "Sunshine." Now Rachel is testing the limits of endurance with her #Catalinaforacure swim from Catalina Island to Palos Verdes! Twenty-Two MILES in the open ocean without touching land. And she's doing it all for pancreatic cancer awareness. You can support Rachel and her swim here: gofundme.com/Catalinaforacure.
