These days, Raylyn is running her own team, Steve Tilford Foundation Racing, and is expanding her calendar to include the Lifetime Grand Prix.In this conversation, Payson and Raylyn chat about her career as a top-level basketball player, her unsuccessful attempts to adjust to triathlon, and why she was immediately drawn to cyclocross. They talk about why she wanted to start her own team despite having little managerial experience, the excitement of watching her teammate, Curtis White, win Nationals, and why she's decided to race some gravel this year. Way back in 2019, Payson and Raylyn were teammates, and they take some time to reminisce about how her love of shoes, basketball, and good coffee rubbed off of him. They also talk about elevating women in sport, and the athletes outside of cycling that she looks up to.Instagram: @theadventurestache

Emilio Falla is from Ecuador and currently living in California. When I spoke with him he had just flown in and hit practice at the Lone Star National in Houston, Texas. That race was the last elite race he did in his career before switching to Vet Pro. Falla started racing at 3 years old. He was a kid full of energy. In front of his dad's office in Ecuador was a BMX track. So, his parents took him over to the track and as they say the rest is history. He would eventually become the first world champ in Ecuador's history. Falla was a natural on the bike and his list of accomplishments back up what I'm saying. He was 18 times national camp of Ecuador, 7 times Pan American Champ as an amateur, and has 2 bronze medals in the Pan American Championship in elite men. Oh, did I mention he's done two Olympics to boot?Currently he's racing Vet Pro and working for Bombshell. Falla is married and helping to raise three great kids. I'm happy for this man...life is good.

She knew that riding was her calling and had no doubts that she would become one of the best in the sport.

Jan was quick to reject the doctors who told her she would never ride again, and she hasn't stopped persevering since. In this conversation, Sylvia and Jan discuss what it takes to continue to pursue your dreams, even after setbacks. They discuss how to be strong-minded, using different perspectives to discover our blind spots, the importance of having people in our corner, and much more.Topics Include: - Jan's early riding career- Our relationship to fear- How self-awareness leads to better choices- Jan's road to recovery - Diversity of cognitive learning- Shared decision-making- How to persevere in the face of adversity- Mentorship- Why you shouldn't be afraid to make mistakes- And more…Jan Byyny is a top-ranked international rider.

Guilherme Cordiviola is a mighty man of God. He is popularly known in the jiu jitsu community as “Guigui or Gui. Born in Niterói in Rio de Janeiro, the youngest son of a Military Policeman, he grew up in the neighborhood called Jacarepaguá in Rio de Janeiro. At the age of 14, he was introduced to Jiu Jitsu through his friend Leandro. Leandro said that Jiu Jitsu would help him lose weight, paid his monthly fee and gave him his first kimono. What Leandro did not know is that this generous and kind gesture it would forever change the life of “Guigui”. Guigui first trained Jiu Jitsu school at the Merck Fight Club. The school's founder and owner Professor Sérgio Henrique (also known as Professor Serginho) is a fourth degree black belt from Team Gfteam and a student of Mestre Baruana and Mestre Júlio César. Since the first Guigui stepped on the mat, he knew what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. With only one month of training, he went to his first competition and won the champion. The adrenaline rush from that competition fueled his love for the sport and competitions became routine in his life. He has collected several titles during his career including 3-time Brazilian National Champion, several state championships, and most memorable the coveted IBJJF World Jiu Jitsu Championship in 2013. After the World Championship Guilherme moved to Columbus, Ohio and began training and teaching Jiu Jitsu to professional fighters and the local community.   Later that year his father fell ill and he had to go move back to Brazil to help his family. In 2014, he became a banker and started working at one of the most famous banks in Brazil, but that desire to earn a living competing and teaching Jiu Jitsu still remained in his heart. In 2014, he earned his brown belt and was asked to teach competition classes for teenagers who were competing on the BJJ circuit. What started out as fun became an inexplicable passion. That passion translated into a fun and robust BJJ program that has resulted in his students winning IBJJF Worlds Championships, Pan American Championships, European Championships, Brazilian Championships as well as many Open State Championships. In 2017, he earned the bronze medal as a brown belt placing 3rd at the IBJJF Jiu Jitsu World Championship. He was promoted on the spot while on the podium in what he describes as one of the best feelings of his life. Guigui's life changed in 2019 when his father passed away. He knew in his heart that banking was not his life's passion and took a step of faith by resigning from his job and followed his heart to compete and teach Jiu jitsu on a full-time basis. Gui gave his heart to Christ at an early age. Through many trials and tribulations, he became lukewarm in his faith until the Lord spoke to him and called him into a deeper relationship many years ago. He now actively lives out his faith and walks the walk of faith and is an example to those around him.

Pan Am Championships The Brazilian women won team gold over the US at the Pan American Championship. We discuss: Flavia Saraiva as team MVP and the beam rotation that made us remember why we like this sport Rebeca Andrade nearly getting a 9 E-score on bars A big week for Lexi Zeiss Skye Blakely's magic beam feet The current state of US floor artistry And how much (if anything) should be read into what the US performance means for worlds Plus, Canada brought the new skills on bars, Jamaica missed the team final because of a leotard deduction, and the US men won a tight final over Brazil. And most importantly: the shorts incident, Barbara Achondo excelling at 39, the music tastes of the US team, and the glory that is Argentinian junior sensation Isabella Ajalla.
