Just before the best women triathletes will toe the line at Kailua Pier in Kona (Hawaii) this Saturday, we sat down with German Laura Philipp who hasn't had a traditional pattern of becoming a professional athlete. Over the past years Laura has managed to establish herself as one of the leaders of the sport not just by winning titles but also being a role model for a healthy lifestyle, a powerful motivator for many people and finally her love for cake. Laura takes us on an in-depth, deeply honest, personal journey through her challenges and her constant search for opportunities to improve.
