Angie Jackson returns to The Everyday Ironman Podcast for her third appearance, joining us just six days after crossing the finish line at Ironman Jacksonville. In this inspiring conversation, Angie shares her race-day experience, the challenges she faced, and the lessons learned from another incredible Ironman journey.

We also dive into an important discussion about representation in endurance sports. As a Black female athlete, Angie offers her perspective on competing in a sport where athletes who look like her remain significantly underrepresented. Her insights highlight both the progress being made and the opportunities that still exist to make triathlon more inclusive.

In addition, we discuss injuries, recovery, and the physical and mental resilience required to stay consistent through setbacks. Whether you're training for your first sprint triathlon or your next Ironman, this episode delivers motivation, perspective, and practical takeaways for every age-group athlete.

DJ Humphreys is back — and a lot has changed. 🙌 Since his last appearance on The Everyday Ironman Podcast, DJ has made some bold life moves: he stepped away from truck driving to pursue a college degree in digital marketing, got married 💍, and kept chipping away at the sport he loves with several sprint triathlons under his belt.

Now he's adding Ironman 70.3 Chattanooga to the list. 🏊🚴🏃

DJ sits down with Ashley Raines and Brian Weyenberg to break down the race — the preparation, the challenges, and everything it took to cross that finish line. His journey is a powerful reminder that triathlon isn't just a sport, it's a lifestyle that can anchor you through major life transitions.

If you're balancing big life changes with big race goals, this one's for you. 💪🎙️
