Marni On The Move

Today on the Marni On The Move Kona 2022 Triathlon Series, I sync up with Danish Professional Triathlete, Daniel Bækkegård. Daniel is one of the most inspiring athletes I’ve spoken with on the pod and he is on a mission to make an impact on the world with every move he makes. He is an emerging talent on the long-distance triathlon scene, but competition and excellence in sport are in his DNA. At an early age he was a competitive Junior Swimmer  where he won over 20 national titles.  In 2014 he switched over to triathlon as part of the Youth National Team. In 2019 he moved over to long-distance triathlon, winning his debut IRONMAN in Austria and qualifying for his first IRONMAN World Championship in Hawaii. Since then he has been crushing it it the  IRONMAN and 70.3  scene as well as PTO.  This week he is competing in IRONMAN World Championships in Kona on Saturday Oct 8, 2022. Daniel and I sync up to chat about what he loves about triathlon, key life (and triathlon) lessons he has learned over the past few y
