Description

This week on the podcast Amy and Aly talk with Michelle Wieland, creator of the Moms for Triathlon Facebook group. Michelle talks about how she started the group back in 2016 because she was seeing mom-specific topics come up in the Womens for Tri Facebook group and wanted to create a specific space for them. She shares her own experience as a mom of two young kids fitting in training with a husband who is a pilot and as a trainer and coach. Michelle also opens up about her experience having two c-sections and learning to give her body grace and time to recover.
