#154 – Journey From Obesity To World-Class Triathlete/ FT. Sue Reynolds

    There are a lot of stereotypes that go with obesity, and Sue, like many people, did not fit those stereotypes.

    Our guest today is Sue Reynolds, author of “The Athlete Inside: The Transforming Power of Hope, Tenacity, and Faith.” She transformed herself from a 335-lb couch potato into a 135-lb World Championships-qualifying triathlete—all between the ages of 56 and 62! This is truly a journey from obesity to greatness

    A Journey From Obesity To World-Class Triathlete

    Sue conquered fear and pride to find that her best version had been there all along. She hopes the book and her story will inspire others to begin their own transformation journeys – whatever those journeys may be. 

    Sue is a passionate achiever who throws herself wholeheartedly into everything she does. As a result of her dedication and hard work on her successful nonprofit, she let her health go and used eating to aid her in staying awake and working long hours into the night. She is sharing with us more about her health and fitness story and fulfilling her secret dream of becoming a triathlete. Sue’s journey from obesity to World-Class Triathlete is interesting and unique in many ways but also wonderfully inspiring and relatable for everyone.
