These week we are thrilled to bring to everyone the interview we’ve all been waiting for: Jenny Kalmbach, who was the lead paddle boarder in Kona this year! Jenny told us all the details on her experiences in this role, including the wildlife sightings along the way. Beyond the triathlon world though, Jenny has had an illustrious paddle boarding career, including big races and long treks. We loved this change of perspective and getting to learn about the paddle boarding world, and we are so excited to bring it to our listeners!
