#474: Balancing Being a Dad + an Ironman Triathlete

In a nod to Father’s Day, Sarah and Dimity talk with Russell Newell, a father of four young kiddos and the author of Irondad Life. In detailing his journey to being on the cusp of his seventh Ironman triathlon, Russ shares: -how the more kids he has, the tougher training becomes; -his training (or lack thereof!); -why he cries as he sprints to the finish line; -nutrition advice that helped him get in racing shape; and,-marathon pacing advice.  In the intro, Sarah details her recent East Coast trip to visit her elderly mother and her BFF.
