On this episode, we talk with Hallie Fitzsimons. Hallie has been an athlete her entire life involved with volleyball, tennis, running, softball, and D1 Crew in college but getting into more endurance sports in 2009 is where she met some amazing women to train with while she was living on the North Shore of Oahu.

After her first sprint distance triathlon Hallie really dove in headfirst immediately signing up for several IRONMAN events, and traveling the world to race, train, and ride her bike. Hallie has battled several health issues in her triathlon career, even crashing her bike in 2019 breaking just about every bone you could and clawing my way back to the sport as soon as she physically could. She has been lucky enough to work with her coach Rob Reinhard for the past 10+ years where she has seen a significant amount of age group success and been lucky enough to be part of an amazing Varlo Triathlon team for the past 3 years. At 40, Hallie continues to remain extremely competitive, enjoying as many races as possible a year with a full-time career and a house full of fur kids.
