On this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon hosts a re-airing of a fireside chat with Vincent Luis and Paula Findlay, two top Professional Triathletes, at the Purple Patch Performance Center in San Francisco. The Night of Champions event supports the Challenged Athletes Foundation, which provides opportunities for individuals with physical challenges. Vincent and Paula discuss their journeys, handling pressure, and adversity. Vincent shares his experiences at the Olympics, including his struggles and the resilience he demonstrated. Paula talks about her career, including her success at Daytona and her plans for future races. Both emphasize the importance of coaching and mentorship in their careers. The event raised $14,000 for the Challenge Athletes Foundation.
