Summary

Laura Philipp was the 4th place finisher at Kona in 2019, and the 3rd place finisher at the 2020 PTO Championship at Challenge Daytona.  Yet, her name hasn't been well known in North America -- even though she's incredibly well known in Europe!  Her husband Philipp Seipp is also her coach.  We talk to the pair about her rise in the sport, their philosophy on training, how she felt lining up against the best at Challenge Daytona and more!

What are you going to spring on me today? What kind of, what kind of game do you have in mind?

0:04.4

I have no games, but I will say that last week when we asked somebody or asked everybody to hit

0:08.9

us up at your Instagram at Triathlon Taryn to say if they had heard of the word scosh, somebody

1:28.4

podcast, let me know. Comment on Instagram. So getting into today's guest, Laura Phillip

and her husband, Philip Seep. Yes, I was one of those people who didn't know a ton about her.

1:39.6

Of course, I watched her at Challenge Daytona on that amazing broadcast and it was like, hey, you know,
