Summary

You know him on Instagram as the triathlete who runs in a speedo. Justin Lippert was a successful NCAA collegiate track and cross country runner at Clemson before he quit running altogether after his junior year. When some of his running buddies took up triathlon, Justin figured he'd try it too. Not only did he quickly fall in love with the sport, after just one summer of serious training, he won the 2018 Age Group Nationals in both the Sprint and Olympic distances, and the 2018 70.3 Long Course national championships. After that, he was invited to the Zwift Tri Academy, which was an experience of a lifetime. He also founded the Full Send Triathlon team. What's next for Lippert? Will he turn pro? We'll find out.

0:00.0	Today's podcast is brought to you by two sponsors, Roka, our pals at Roka, wetsuits, sunglasses,
0:06.2	floaty pants. Everything you want under the sun can be found at roca.com forward slash
0:11.2	Terran.
0:12.3	Now I want to talk about specifically what wetsuit I use that people have been questioning me on,
0:18.8	well, why aren't you using the super-duper
0:21.4	high-end Maverick Pro X wetsuit Taryn?
0:24.8	Well, when I go and I train, I use the Maverick comp, which is their entry-level
0:30.0	wetsuit.
0:31.0	I think that that Maverick comp is as good a wetsuit as some of those eight, nine, $1,200 wetsuits out there for a fraction of the
0:41.9	price trainiacs. So if you are in the market for an entry-level wetsuit, I highly recommend
0:47.3	that one. That one sounds like a good one. And the thing is they put the same kind of
0:52.5	quality into every single one of their products. So the so-called
0:54.8	entry level isn't like a lesser entry level. It's just a different wetsuit. Exactly. That's why I've
1:00.2	been such a big fan of Roka, from goggles to wetsuits to floaty pants, sunglasses now, pretty
1:06.2	much everything that I've tried from them since 2013 has been great. So go check out roca.com forward slash taren.
1:14.1	They have set that up.
1:15.4	Roka.com slash tern is kind of the catch-all for everything Trainiac-related.
1:19.8	So sometimes we're running a contest at roca.com slash taren.
1:23.8	Sometimes there's nothing at roca.com slash taren.
1:27.7	Sometimes there is a discount available at roca.com slash taren.
1:32.3	So go there.
1:33.3	That's your one-stop shop.
