In this episode, physical therapist, endurance coach, and competitive triathlete Emma Taylor shares what she sees from the front lines of high performance. From intrinsic motivation and consistency to strength training, injury prevention, and fueling strategies, this conversation explores how endurance athletes build durability, resilience, and long-term performance.
