In episode 167, Jill and Chris talk with Adina O’Neill, the founder and head coach at Team B*REAL, an endurance sport community where athletes of any size, color, identity, age & ability are empowered to achieve their personal goals.
She helps her clients to build confidence, define their own goals, go at their own pace and stand out despite believing they may not fit in.
Adina is a marathon swimmer and triathlete who has completed over 100 endurance events including the Paris Marathon, ice swims, a 13-mile swim, IRONMAN Mont Tremblant, and a 200 mile single day bike ride.
She enjoys traveling, eating cereal and listening to live music with her husband, 2 children and their yellow lab Mel.
We discuss:

- Why she started her B*Real Community for non traditional athletes
- Virtual events and challenges: Saturday Sweat program and Winter Warrior challeng
- Helping others to run their first marathon or triathlon
- “I’m the right coach for someone who wants to run a race but is concerned about finishing.”
