Be Tough, Stay Patient with Jeanni Metzler (S16E3)

In this Episode

This week on the podcast Haley & Alyssa get the full run down on the 70.3 World Championships from the second place finisher Jeanni Metzler. Jeanni gives us all of the details on the race, what it feels like to be on the second step of the podium at the world champs, and how she is recovering from racing the gruelling course in St. George. Her incredible run strength gave her an edge on this course, and she passed American Taylor Knibb on the run to move into second place, and managed to push out a 10-second lead over her speedy training partner. Jeannie talks about her friendship with Knibb, and how they push each other to be their best.

Jeannie had success at the 70.3 worlds in 2017 & 2018, then in 2019 she decided to try her hand at the Ironman distance. She talks about her race in Kona in 2019, what she learned from racing Ironman, and why she decided to switch back to focusing on the 70.3 distance. Jeanni also gives us a few tips on preparing and training for a hilly run course.
