Why All Types of Diversity Are Important to Embrace in Endurance Sports
Today, we’re honored to share the voices of Marci, Eve, and Nicole, three remarkable women from the LGBTQIA community who bring their experiences and insights to the forefront.
In this episode, we aim to educate and enlighten the triathlon and endurance sports community about the unique challenges and triumphs faced by these athletes. Marci, Eve, and Nicole share their heartwarming stories, offering a glimpse into their journeys, the obstacles they’ve overcome, and the joys they find in the sport.
Join us as we listen, learn, and gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be part of the LGBTQIA community in the world of endurance sports. Together, let’s foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for all athletes.
Some of the questions I asked Marci, Eve and Nicole, included:
