Shownotes

We’re kicking off the year with an absolute powerhouse: Rosie Wild—Major in the British Army, barrier-breaker, and the first woman ever to pass the legendary paratrooper regiment test joins Kelly, Katie, and Joanne for the first episode of 2026.

Rosie takes us inside her world: juggling an elite military career with pro triathlon, navigating brutal training environments, and chasing experiences that push the limits of what’s possible. From battling the elements at Ironman Wales to taking the win at the beautiful-but-brutal Patagonman, Rosie’s story is less about medals and more about grit, purpose, and what keeps you moving forward when everything hurts.

Rosie's rewriting the rules and also reminding us why we love triathlon: discipline, accomplishment, and FUN!

You'll leave inspired for your own challenges and for the triathlon season ahead!
