Skye’s The Limit Podcast

Listen in for a solo episode with Skye. Recorded before the Ironman World Championship in Nice happened, Skye shares some FOMO and excitement for the event. She updates listeners on what training is like for her as she is now 30+ weeks pregnant, and she keeps it real with all the fun house projects she and Matt have been working on to make sure their home is finished and comfortable to bring home a newborn baby. Skye ends with sharing some of the unexpected mental struggles she's experienced being pregnant.

Ben Kanute is a fan favorite professional triathlete, an Olympian, a multiple-time 70.3 champion, a two-time Ironman 70.3 World Championship podium finisher, and a father of two. Ben is in Kona right now preparing for his first Ironman World Championship in October, so Skye and Ben chat a bit about the Kona camp and races this year, and then dive into all things kids and fatherhood as a pro athlete. Ben is so open and honest about his experiences, from missing the birth of his first child while at a race (spoiler: the baby came EARLY), daily duties as a father, making sure everyone in the family gets the rest they need, how he supports his amazing wife Courtney, the Kanute stroller count, and so much more.
