 Today's guest is a force to be reckoned with in the world of triathlon.  From her roots in surf lifesaving to becoming a standout star in the ITU World Triathlon Series and Super League Triathlon, her journey is a testament to talent, hard work, and perseverance.  She's had some incredible highs and some tough lows in the sport, but she keeps showing up with intent.

Today's guest on The Prism of Perspective podcast is Greg Bennett, a former Olympian, World Champion and number one ranked triathlete in the world.  After 27 years competing as a professional, he has “hung up boots,” but the drive that enabled him to reach those heights have simply been refocused on thriving as an entrepreneur in a few ventures including co-founding the knowledge sharing network AnyQuestions and hosting his highly regarded podcast The Greg Bennett Show. Greg is also committed to being an exceptional husband and father.  On our podcast, Greg and I discuss the importance of finding and expanding our natural gifts, the power of adding purpose to our passions, the value of having a strong supporter as we face our challenges, the impact of a gratitude practice, and the necessity of honoring pushing the edges of our capacity and providing ample time and focus on recovery.  I loved Greg's perspective as his drive and mental strength, blended seamlessly with his kindness and desire to be a contribution to others, and I am sure you will as well.

She's a professional triathlete who illustrates the mantra, "Success comes to those who endure just one moment longer."   Rinny was one of the first interviews I did for this podcast three and a half years ago, in episode 6, February 2020.   Mirinda has recently made the tough decision to retire, and we'll be discussing this significant shift in her life, how she came to that decision, and what the process was like. We will explore her most memorable moments, discuss the highs and lows, and get a glimpse into some of her most epic workouts.   We'll discuss the evolution of the sport, how technology has changed the game, and her thoughts on the future of triathlon. And, of course, what life looks like for her after professional racing.   She's a great friend, and I'm excited to get this chance to catch up.   Originally from Australia, and now residing in Boulder, CO Mirinda is a one of the world's most successful triathletes. Her 2007 70.3 World Championships win secured her ticket to the Ironman World Championships in Kona. In 2009 she set a course run record and finished 2nd in her first Kona appearance. She continued her dominance and went on to win three Ironman World Championships in 2010, 2013, and 2014. Her 2013 win included the third fastest marathon of the day including the men's field. Her blistering run course record from 2014 still stands today (2:50:26).   Mirinda is a threat at every race she enters with over 50 wins at major events throughout the world. Her Ironman 70.3 World Championship title and three Ironman World Titles and seven podium finishes in Kona in the span of a decade marks her as one the of the greatest triathletes of all time.   Growing up in Queensland, Australia, Mirinda Carfrae, widely known as “Rinny”, was a sporty child, with basketball her primary focus. At 5' 3”, however, her true athletic potential remained untapped until a high school triathlon coach noticed her speed on the court and suggested she give multisport a go. At the age of 19 she competed in her first triathlon and shortly thereafter–with no prior background in swimming, cycling or running–made the 2001 Australian Junior Elite Team.   Rinny represented Australia at the ITU Triathlon World Championships from 2001-2005, twice earning silver medals (2002 & 2003) before turning her attention to long distance racing. A victory at the Nice Long Course Triathlon (2004) and a silver medal at the ITU Long Course World Championship (2005) were early indicators that endurance was her forte; a third-place podium finish (2006) and ultimately a world title at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship (2007) confirmed Rinny as one of the top talents on the non-draft racing circuit.   That victory was pivotal, not only as a precursor to Rinny's numerous half iron-distance wins to that date, but also to punch her first ever entry ticket to the Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, an honor she postponed until 2009. That October, as a wide-eyed Ironman rookie, Rinny stepped off the plane onto the Big Island and was quickly swept up in the race week frenzy, heralded as the next great hope for the title at triathlon's “holy grail” despite having yet to prove her prowess at the distance.   But prove it she did, using her finely-honed foot speed to post a course run record and secure second place. The following year, Rinny's constant drive to improve resulted in her first title as Ironman World Champion. In the years that followed, despite race day struggles that might derail a lesser athlete, Rinny never strayed from the podium steps in Kona, earning second (2011) and third (2012) before regaining her crown in 2013. In so doing she struck fear in the hearts of competitors both male and female, posting the third fastest marathon overall (2:50:38), a new run record enroute to scoring the women's Kona course record in 8:52:14.   2014 was a year filled with exciting new adventures for Rinny. Her winter wedding (December 2013) to fellow triathlete and Ironman Champion Timothy O'Donnell marked the start of a thrilling new chapter in her personal life. Professionally, the reigning Ironman World Champion expanded her horizons to Europe, claiming victory against a highly competitive field at Germany's iconic iron-distance race, Challenge Roth, and confirming that all eyes will be on her yet again in Kona.   Links Be sure and check out bennettendurance.com Find Greg on social media: Twitter @GregBennett1 Instagram @GregBennettWorld   And follow Mirinda Carfrae: website: https://www.mirindacarfrae.com/ twitter: https://twitter.com/mirindacarfrae?lang=en instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mirindacarfrae/?hl=en facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rinnytriathlon/   Timestamps 9:06 - Winning Kona 3 times firmly places Mirinda at the top of the sport of Triathlon.

I wanted to re-share this epic episode from July 23, 2021 (episode #82)   If you're like me, you've loved the Olympics since you can remember. I've always enjoyed watching the best in the world battle it out on the big stage ... none more so than the sport of Triathlon. I've always wondered what it takes to win on that special day, and what it must feel like crossing that finish line knowing that you are the Olympic champion, and how does that heavy medal affect the rest of your life?   In this episode I have all of Triathlons men's gold medalists on the show. Five Gold and one Silver between the four of them. Simon Whitfield, Hamish Carter, Jan Frodeno, and Alistair Brownlee.   Men that I have raced and trained with, men that have conquered the world, and have been heroes to their respective countries. All of them I admire and would call mates, the best men you could ever share a beer with ... all-around top blokes.   They've all been on the show at least once. You can find their past episodes on your podcast app of choice. But never have they all been together on the one show. I'm feeling very honored that they have all agreed to come on, and amazed that we were able to coordinate times from all corners of the world.   In this episode, each of the Olympic Champions shares their stories, what they were thinking the days leading into the race? What was going through their head at the pivotal moment of the race? When did they feel like they had it won and what was the initial feeling they each had as they crossed the line knowing they were the Olympic Champion. Jan Frodeno's answer will make you laugh. They each describe how the Gold medal has affected their lives. Their answers may surprise you.   This has to be one of the greatest podcast episodes ever. What a thrill it was for me to chat with all of these champions.   Timestamps 13:09 - What were the emotions and feelings for each of these professional athletes 10 days out from their own Olympics campaign? You need to calm down and trust the work you've done 18:43 - Jan Frodeno describes his pre Olympic campaign and how he was thinking 10 days prior to racing. Dreams do come true.

Welcome to The Greg Bennett show, an AnyQuestion podcast hosted by Former Professional Olympic and World Champion Athlete Greg Bennett.   Greg chats with the world's greatest athletes and high performers to find out how they got to the top of the world and how they are able to sustain it.   Reece and Lucy Charles-Barclay are the most professional team I've witnessed in the sport. Their approach to being the best athletes they can be, their professionalism with brands, and how they present themselves to the world with how much they share with their fans … they are absolutely crushing it.   It hasn't all been smooth sailing. In February of 2022 Lucy was diagnosed with a stress fracture in the femoral neck. From the Number 1 world ranking, the world championship title and all the glory to injuries and having to rebuild. It's all a part of the rollercoaster journey of being a professional in sport, and they have embraced it with class.   Go to anyquestion.com/lucy or anyquestion.com/reecebarclaytri to ask Lucy & Reece follow-up questions and hear other answers from Lucy & Reece, and all the other Experts on the platform.   Support the show at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=26936856 "The Greg Bennett Show" -   timestamps 2:09 - Interview begins 3:46 - Congrats with the signing recently with Asics, what was that decision process like?
