“Once you’re out on a training session or once you’re out on a race course being a father has been a huge motivation, an extra motivation on a hard day to keep going and try to turn it into a good day,” says Patrik Nilsson, who, along with Ben Kanute, join Eric Gilsenan on the Beyond Podcast to discuss their lives as professional triathletes while also being the fathers of young children. Ben and Patrik also go into detail on how being a parent changed how they view training and racing, the influences their own parents played in their careers and their best dad jokes.
