In this episode, we talk with Vinolee Ramalingam!! Vinolee Ramalingam is an inspiration to many women from all around India. She was an athletic kid who won medals at national level until higher studies put them at the back burner. An M.Tech graduate and an assistant professor, she picked up sport to lose weight after the birth of her son. Little did she know that it will rekindle her childhood passion for sport and completely change the course of her life. She completed 3 Ironman events and multiple half Ironman events. She gave up her job as a lecturer and became an Ironman certified triathlon coach helping others push their limits in swimming, running and cycling with TriLeeCoaching.

Someone working full-time/part-time, entrepreneur or anyone who has to work to make ends meet and doesn't let being busy to stop him/her from pursuing an active lifestyle is a working athlete. I consider stay at home moms/dads who pursue a sport, as working athletes because homemaking is a full-time job. If you like this, share with friends who could be interested.
