Send us a textFrom reluctant runner to international age-group athlete, Renata Moriconi's journey is anything but typical.Renata grew up far from the world of sport—she hated running, never mastered swimming, and left cycling behind in primary school. Yoga was the only activity that stuck, on and off, throughout her early life. Everything changed in 2006 when her car broke down and she bought a second-hand bike, unknowingly setting the first stone on a path she couldn't yet imagine.Years later, in her early forties, her youngest child's commitment to competitive swimming, diving, and athletics slowly pulled Renata into an active lifestyle of her own. What started as occasional jogs with other parents quickly turned into something bigger. In 2016 she discovered a local triathlon group at her neighborhood lido—an encounter that transformed her life.Fast-forward to 2024 and 2025: Renata qualified for the Age-Group European Triathlon Championships, raced on the world stage in the AG World Aquathlon in Pontevedra, and competed in the AG European Triathlon in Istanbul.In this podcast, Renata shares the real, unfiltered story behind her late-blooming athletic career. Expect candid conversations about fear, identity, motherhood, beginners' mindset, community, reinvention, and what it truly means to start—regardless of age or background. Whether you're an aspiring athlete or someone who thinks sport “isn't for you,” Renata's journey proves it's never too late to redefine yourself.Follow Renata on Instagram @moriconirenataand Facebook : Renata MoriconiYou Can Follow us onYouTube - AMP GBInstagram @amp_podcastFacebook : Richard Joseph Conwayfind all our episodes on our websiteWebsite is : https://agegroupmultisportpodcast.buzzsprout.com/email: agegroupmultisportpodcast@gmail.comIf you are an agegroup athlete and would like to come on the pod, get in touch.

A Triathlete Champion's Life Tips for Women
Think nutrition is only for podium chasers? Think again. In this inspiring chat, we meet Dr Sarah Barr, a proud back-of-the-packer, cancer survivor and one determined triathlete chasing big endurance goals including a full Ironman for her 62nd birthday. As a long-time calorie counter and clean eater, Sarah thought she had nutrition sorted... until she realised she had no idea how to fuel as a triathlete. We dive into:• Why nutrition is just as critical for slower athletes• Common fuelling myths that leave back-of-packers bonking• How Sarah overcame restrictive mindsets to fuel with purpose• What she’s doing differently to chase her next big goal This episode is a must-listen for any triathlete who’s ever thought they’re “too slow” to need a proper fuelling plan.

The government has announced an independent inquiry into repeated failings in maternity services at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. Earlier this year, a BBC investigation revealed that the deaths of at least 56 babies and two mothers over the past five years at the Trust could perhaps have been avoided. BBC correspondent Divya Talwar joins Nuala McGovern, alongside Lauren Caulfield and Amarjit Kaur Matharoo, who both tragically lost their babies while receiving care at Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust. This month, the Ironman World Championships were held in Kona, Hawaii, where Britain's Kat Matthews won silver. The men's and women's championships, previously held simultaneously, were split into separate events in 2023. However, they are set to reunite next year. Questions have been raised about the impact this change may have on female competitors. To discuss the championships and celebrate Kat's achievement, Nuala is joined by Kat Matthews and Jordan Blanco, a contributor to Triathlete magazine who attended the event. A new report reveals that progress towards gender equity in the architecture profession still remains too slow. Inequalities remain deeply rooted — with pay disparities, toxic and exclusionary workplace cultures, and half of female respondents surveyed said they had been bullied, and a third had experienced sexual harassment at work. Nuala hears from Valerie Vaughan-Dick, Chief Executive of Royal Institute of British Architects, and Helen Lee who was the project architect on a social housing development in London for the elderly which has just won this year's Stirling Prize for Architecture. The Essex witch trials represent one of the darkest chapters in British history. A new Sky History series, Witches of Essex, revisits the real lives of women accused of witchcraft in the 16th and 17th centuries, drawing on newly examined court records and the latest historical research. Historian Dr Eleanor Janega joins Nuala to discuss.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Dianne McGregor
In one of our favorite episodes as an encore we find out: What does it really take to move from 300 pounds to a 9:15 Ironman without losing your love of great food and a full life? We sit down with chef-turned-triathlete Will Liebig to unpack the habits, community, and mindset that reshaped his health over a decade. Will is open about the grind: he swapped isolation for master swimming, built cycling and running tribes, and embraced the 80/20 training rule—keep 20 percent truly hard, keep 80 percent easy. The gains came not from punishment, but from patience.Food is a highlight. As a classically trained chef, Will rejects fear-based nutrition and shows how fats like olive oil, butter, and cream can fuel endurance when paired with smart timing, portion control, and macro awareness. He eats smaller meals throughout the day, anchors a larger mid-day plate, often skips starch at night for better sleep, and isn't afraid of fasted zone-2 when the plan calls for it. He also defends cheat days as motivation, not failure—a double spicy Bloody Mary after a race or a well-plated steak dinner cooked sous vide because satisfaction matters.We also explore resilience. Will shares the setbacks that tested him—career shifts, grief after his father's passing, and a brush with body dysmorphia—and how he course-corrected by eating enough, tracking with intention, and leaning on his wife, Lisa, for logistics and encouragement. That partnership turns races into shared adventures and keeps training sustainable. Expect practical coaching cues, real-world nutrition, and the reminder that big change demands a wider timeline. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review—then tell us what habit you'll commit to for the next five years.Email us at HELLO@ChampionsMojo.com.
