Summary

Ready to set some goals for 2024? Then listen to this episode, where hosts Dimity and Sarah WF bring on pro triathlete, coach, and adventure seeker Alyssa Godesky, who shares how she approaches going after the next big thing. From timing it right (hint: patience is key!) to setting realistic expectations, Alyssa goes over how she works with her athletes to earmark and ultimately achieve goals big and small. First, though, Sarah WF shares about how she parlayed her marathon fitness (and post marathon frustration) into one of her fastest 5Ks in years, and then Alyssa pops on to talk about her own incredible athletic achievements before getting into goal-setting.
