Swimming, cycling, and running are challenging enough on their own. Put them together, and you’ve got triathlon, a sport that demands endurance, strategy, and plenty of grit.
TCU Triathlon Head Coach Jenny Garrison joins Brian in the Home Zone Studios for an episode of Frogs in a Pod, offering a closer look at collegiate triathlon.
From the 750-meter open-water swim and 20K bike ride to the final 5K run, Garrison explains how athletes navigate each leg, including drafting and pack tactics that can make all the difference.
She also discusses the sport’s growing presence in college athletics, efforts to secure NCAA championship status, and what it takes to host races.
For Horned Frogs fans curious about a sport that combines three disciplines into one demanding race, it’s a chance to hear from the coach helping lead TCU’s triathlon program.
