This week, Haley and Alyssa welcome Tiencia James onto the pod. Tiencia is a multisport coach and accomplished age group triathlete, mom, and emergency room physician. She also happens to be coached by our very own Haley Chura.

Tiencia tells us how training fit into her life as she worked as a physician during the covid pandemic, the lessons she’s taken from the ER to the race course, and the best places to race and bring your kids.

Tiencia’s race experience includes several World Championships, including last year’s Ironman World Championships in Kona. She offers her throughs on the Ironman Foundation’s Race for Change Initiative and Ironman’s efforts to support clubs and organizations focused on welcoming Black athletes to the sport.
