Morgon's coach, Chuck Kemeny, wants to take your perception and place it next to your reality and help you remember why you are doing this? So many athletes lost sight of the destination over the last year and the importance of training faded. As a coach, knowing who you are and what you bring to the table is just as important as your finish line. As an athlete, you cannot avoid life events. It's okay to not be okay. Focus on the small victories and keep moving forward.Find Coach Morgon: https://morgonlatimore.com/about/#book

Jessica grew up a swimmer so she loves the swim. We talk about the course and also her nutrition. She used Gatorade and Gu dissolved in water during the swim. A 6.2 mile swim in 3:05. Immediately following the swim the racers get right on the bike for the first portion of the 263 mile bike ride.
