Kylexandr Holin, also known as Organic Ironman (@organicironman) is one of the first endurance athletes I started following online. Seeing him go from half Ironman, to full Ironman has been incredible and talking with him for about an hour about the triathlete lifestyle was SUPER interesting. I really dig his outlook and how he approaches the sport. Hopefully you will too! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/myles-biggs/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/myles-biggs/support
