In this episode of The Real Triathlon Podcast, Lisa Becharas, Jackson Laundrie, and Garrick Loewen are joined by 2025 St. Anthony’s Triathlon champion Marc Dubrick. The crew dives into Marc’s back-to-back wins and how he executed the perfect swim-bike-run strategy, despite unexpected pre-race chaos and a strange swim start. Lisa opens up about racing through a painful saddle sore and lingering infection, while Jackson shares how he clawed his way into the top 10 after a long racing hiatus. Garrick gives a raw update on his DNF at Ironman Texas, including his struggle with pain and the tough call to pull out mid-race. With honest takes, plenty of laughs, and unfiltered moments (including a wild dinner table medical consult), this episode is a must-listen for triathlon fans.
