FROM BODYBUILDER TO TRIATHLETE
Season 1, Ep. 31
•
With Ironman Wales just around the corner, the boys welcomed Shane Parsons onto the pod this week. Shane has had a wild ride and has gone from bodybuilder to triathlete in the space of one year!
They cover everything from growing up playing the traditional Welsh sports in school before going off to uni and finding bodybuilding, right up to his transition to a triathlete and even bigger plans for 2025!
Bare with us on the audio of this episode, the wifi in Niki's hotel whilst he's working away was not user friendly!
