#17 Guðlaug Edda Hannesdóttir: "I am a human first‪"‬ The Athletes Zone Podcast

    • Sports

Guðlaug Edda Hannesdóttir is Iceland's best triathlete, the 2018 Aquathlon World Champion and looking to qualify for the Paris Olympics.

We talked about how she got through extremely tough times following difficult injuries and broke free from the constraints of her "good-girl syndrome". She discusses the importance of being grounded to operate from a place of joy rather than fear.

With unfiltered vulnerability Guðlaug Edda shares how she had to learn the hard way that she is more than just an athlete, she is a person first. Now, fuelled by passion and determination, she is on the home stretch of trying to secure her spot in the Olympics this summer.
