Run Tri Bike: Amplifying Everyday Athlete Stories with Aum Gandhi and Jason Bahamundi
Manage episode 373152323 series 3322830
Ditch the notion that only high-performance athletes have stories worth sharing. This week, I'm humbled to chat with Jason Bahamundi and Aum Gandhi, the masterminds behind Run Tri Bike. They believe in the power of every individual story, the triumphs and the hiccups, from endurance sports beginners to seasoned pros. We’re also stirring up a debate on the polarizing culinary choice of pineapple on pizza. Yes, you heard it right!
Caught in the whirlwind of endurance sports, Jason and Aum's journey is nothing short of remarkable. They've come a long way, running quarter miles before progressing to mammoth challenges like Ironman. Their path, laden with trials, tribulations, and the thrill of crossing the finish line, isn't just inspiring; it's a testament to human resilience. With Run Tri Bike, they're amplifying the voices of often overlooked everyday athletes and underrepresented communities, illuminating their unique narratives colored with determination, passion, and strength.
But, what’s an athlete’s story without a taste of defeat? We’re not just talking victories here; we're embracing the journey, acknowledging the hard work, and even celebrating the 'DNF' stories. The ups and downs, the failures, and the comeback are all part of the bigger picture. Join us as we navigate the realm of endurance sports, drawing strength from the stories we share, and learning how to foster a growth mindset. Sometimes, it’s about running; other times, it’s about life. This episode is a testament to the transformative power of endurance sports, peppered with humor and a lot of heart. So lace up your shoes and get ready for a rollercoaster ride of emotions, inspiration, and a sprinkle of controversy in the kitchen!
