On this episode of Investors & Operators, Mike Alberts, Vice President at Cohere Capital flip interviewed Jordan and Jing. Together, they discuss: How Ironman and other endurance competitions motivate people to overcome challenging obstacles that at first appear completely impossible Jing's first marathon - “register first, then figure it out” The upcoming LA Marathon that both Jordan and Jing would participate ...and so much more. Jordan and Jing talked about the amazing journey they had preparing for their endurance competitions. Neither Jordan nor Jing come from an endurance sports background. However, when Jordan saw Chris Nikic, the first person with Down Syndrome to complete an Ironman, overcome the seemingly unbearable challenge in Florida back in 2019, he decided to sign up for this challenge himself. Not wanting to just sit on the sideline, Jing also embarked on her journey to race in marathons, then Ironman 70.3. 

As the daily reality of living in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic starts to settle in, we appreciate that this is an incredibly challenging time for everyone. It is one that we will unite and support you and each other, but we cannot claim that it will all be rosy and cheerful as we drive forward. Our collective mantra is focused around these simple three words: Stabilize - Adapt - Innovate. In this episode, Matt discusses four current and very timely case studies around this new mantra: How families must adapt to this new norm How IRONMAN is making swift adjustments to their structure to create a virtual race season What Purple Patch is doing to innovate and enhance remote coaching How a local restaurant has pivoted to adapt to customer needs under new guidelines Once we navigate through initial anxiety and fear, we adapt to the new mid-term realities of the situation and work hard to ensure those in need are supported and heard. If we come together, we can thrive. When we cannot be together we need each other more than ever.

We get to speak to professional ironman triathlete Sara Gross today on the Fat Black podcast all about getting women on equal standing to the men. It’s 2015 and boggles the mind that something as simple as 50 women 50 men in Kona even needs to be discussed. Something simple that goes much deeper than the same amount of athletes starting a race. What is the message we send to younger generations going forward? It’s time for change so lets collectively make that happen. In today's episode we discuss: How Sara got to this point and breathing life into Tri Equally. Andrew Messicks message. How Ironman creates empowering life lessons. The pro value. Pro Triathlon Union. Why equality is important for future generations.
