| When You Can't Race the Same Way, Find Another Way: Kris Bonot's Triathlon Story Ep 160 | 10 sept. 2026 | 00:44:55 | |
What happens when being an athlete is part of your identity...but your body can no longer race the way it used to? You find another way. In this episode of the Find Your Edge Podcast, Coach Chris Newport talks with longtime Humans of Steel athlete Kris Bonot about a remarkable endurance journey. Kris started triathlon in 2013, became a successful age-group athlete and eventually competed at USA Triathlon Nationals.

Today, Kris continues participating in endurance events using an all-terrain wheelchair and is an advocate for making triathlon more accessible and welcoming to athletes of different abilities and identities. We talk about: • Going from age-group triathlete to adaptive athlete Kris's story is a reminder that sometimes finding your edge doesn't mean pushing harder.

| How to Prevent GI Distress in Endurance Athletes [Replay] Ep 159 | 03 sept. 2026 | 00:20:19 | |
Nausea, bloating, cramping, reflux—or the dreaded mid-race bathroom emergency? GI distress is common in endurance sports, but that doesn’t mean you have to accept it as part of training and racing. With fall race season ramping up, we’re bringing back this practical episode of the Find Your Edge Podcast to help you understand what may be happening in your gut—and what you can do about it. Coach Chris Newport breaks down some of the most common causes of GI distress in runners, triathletes, cyclists, and other endurance athletes, including: • Eating or drinking too much at once The big takeaway: Your gut can be trained, too. Instead of waiting until race morning and hoping your nutrition plan works, use your training sessions to learn what your body tolerates, adjust your strategy, and build confidence before race day.
