In this conversation, Trevor shares how he made the leap from running to triathlon, what he learned from early racing mistakes, and why he mixes up his riding instead of spending every session on his time-trial bike. He also looks back on his devastating crash at Kona in 2024 and the mindset that's brought him back hungry for Kona 2026.
