"Sometimes it's good to be pushed by a friend or by yourself. If you think that you don't want to 'kill yourself' when you work out or do anything endurance related, it's the wrong mindset. Being pushed or pushing yourself won't hurt. It may even help you get faster!" In this episode of Hilary Topper on Air, Hilary speaks with Megan White, president of the All Women’s Tri Team, USAT Certified Triathlon Coach, RCAA Run Coach, and 2x Ironman Finisher. Learn about the All Women's Tri Team, Megan's personal journey, her impact on Hilary, how to get involved, and more!

About Megan White

AWTT Founder and Coach Megan White completed her first triathlon in 2009. She found the experience so empowering, she started to learn all she could about the sport while starting to encourage others to participate by lecturing run clubs, starting a blog, and a Facebook community that shared triathlon resources for new and experienced triathletes. Her goal was to inspire more women – particularly those of color – to participate in the incredible sport of triathlon. In 2012, her efforts inspired  Lisa Laws and TsiTsi Merrit to bring her vision to life and these three ladies officially co-founded the All Women’s Tri Team (AWTT) in 2012.

About All Women's Tri Team

AWTT has since become an active and visible part of the athletic community throughout the greater New York/Long Island area. AWTT is different from other tri teams, as members are tasked to encourage and support women to explore the multisport arena. Training four to six days a week, the team prepares themselves to be ready to compete year-round not just in triathlons, but various cycling, distance running, and swimming events. AWTT coaches encourage healthy lifestyles that embrace and acknowledge the daily demands of balancing full-time jobs, family life, and training. For more information visit www.allwomenstri.com.
