Over the holidays, we're bringing back our top 5 episodes of 2024, that we think deserve another listen. One of our most downloaded this year was our chat with professional cyclist Anna Yamauchi about her first season on the Grand Prix, navigating a Celiac diagnosis, and what excites her about her sport. Anna is such an exciting athlete to watch for 2025! We'll be back January 7 with all new episodes!

Growing up in the mountains of Truckee, CA, time in the outdoors has always been central to Anna’s life. As a former competitive skier, Anna also dabbled in multiple sports, playing 8 varsity highschool sports. Amongst all this, bikes have always been a part of Anna's life. In highschool she participated in a year of NICA racing, and would often ride bikes with family. But It wasn't really until the fall of 2021, with COVID lockdown and a long bike packing trip, that Anna began gravitating toward racing. In just a few years she's climbed the ranks of the pro field and is now a full time racer participating in the Lifetime Grand Prix and other Marathon MTB and gravel races.

In this episode we talk with pro triathlete Meg Dirito about:

• What a training day of a pro triathlete looks like
• Prepping for a race
• Race day nutrition

Meg Dirito is a pro triathlete, Division 1 elite swimmer, mom, wife, and emergency veterinarian. She's been an athlete since she was a child, going from dancer to elite level gymnast, swimmer, then on to field hockey, and track. She was recruited by D1 schools for the latter three, but ultimately chose her first love, swimming, attending Bucknell University.

There, she set meet, league and school records that had stood for more than 10 years. She qualified for NCAAs and Olympic Trials and was inducted into the Bucknell Sports Hall of Fame. It wasn’t until 2018 that she picked up a bike to race, and had her husband - who was a cyclist at North Carolina State University - teach her how to ride. After a self-taught first year, she qualified for Worlds 70.3, then started to train for the full distance. As an age grouper, she qualified for 5 world championships, including Kona, and took her professional license in 2023. Aside from triathlon, she races masters swimming in pool and open water, and also competes in marathon distances.

In this episode we talk with Isabel "Iz" King about:

• Being newly pregnant as an endurance athlete, and how that affects nutrition
• Mental willpower through long bike races and injury

Isabel “Iz” King is a professional off-road cyclist from California who likes to push herself to new limits on the bike, while inspiring others to attack challenges with a smile. She didn’t take a traditional path to becoming a professional off-road cyclist. Iz began her athletic career at Columbia University, playing D1 soccer, where she finished as the team’s captain, first-time all-Ivy League honors and she earned the Ali Ahern MVP award. Despite those accolades and the momentum she built, she traded in her cleats for the world of finance post undergrad. She did find her way back, though. She discovered the world of endurance sport through triathlon while attending business school at UCLA Anderson. She eventually qualified to compete as a pro triathlete during her third 70.3 Ironman. The lure of cycling was too strong, and Isabel tabled her plans for post-grad work to pursue triathlon. However in 2020, she was inspired by the world’s events to reimagine her athletic career, putting her training to good use to raise money for UCLA healthcare workers. She also partnered with Reggie Miller to speak out against social justice during this time.

These days, Iz is back on the trails, and you can spot her in her signature orange kits—training hard on the roads of California and lining up for the LifeTime Grand Prix gravel and mountain bike races—always with a big smile on her face, proving that fast is fun and friendly.
