b'This is a fantastic chat with Emma Snowsill Frodeno in her coffee shop in Girona. Emma won triathlon Olympic gold in 2008 and was 3x World Champion. But there\'s so much more to Emma than triathlon. She\'s a business owner, she runs La Comuna coffee shop in Girona and she\'s driven to give back to society. She\'s also a mum of two, not to mention an amazing wife to Olympic and Ironman World Champion Jan Frodeno.\\nYou\'ll hear:\\n00:00 We talk about how she and husband Jan Frodeno started La Comuna cafe in Girona and how it fits in well with the community in Girona, which is made up of locals, professional athletes, and a growing expat community.\\n07:14 "Other than dealing with my stress at times and eating the kitchen out of the last remaining food, Jan doesn\'t have so much to do with the running of La Comuna.\\n08:10 Wise words about Emma and Jan helping each other. "We are both big believers in doing things we love and doing things we are passionate about and for us it works and having someone to help you remind you of the things you set out to do is important.\\n10:20 We talk about building a community in Girona. "This has been a personal finding myself and my community here. I came here towards the end of my career and when you are into sport, wherever you go in the world, you have an instant community and people who help you along the way.\\n13:05 The work of the Frodeno Foundation, Jan\'s indoor ironman and the pumptrack in Salt, Girona. "When he told me about the idea of what he wanted to do, I thought it was quite egotistical and I said I was only going to get involved in it if it was something bigger than himself.\\n23:25 "Starting a foundation, opening a cafe and managing apartments in a year has been super super challenging, it\'s not a year I\'d want to repeat!\\n27:40 We talk about S-Grail event that Jan and Emma put on in 2021 for the first time, which was a swim - gravel biking - trail run triathlon.\\n31:10 We touch on Emma\'s triathlon career and her first time in Girona, which was as a spectator. I went there in 2011 and I was hooked and I thought \'yes, I really want to do that.\'\\n34:30 What is Jan like on race morning? It\'s so sickeningly long and nerve-wracking. As a spectator it\'s 8 hours when you\'re not in control.\\n36:45 We talk about role models - Susie O\'Neill was Emma\'s hero when she was growing up.\\n40:50 It is an amazing life and Jan gets asked a lot about finishing. But if you love what you do, what does it matter what the number says. The moment that\'s not there, that\'s a different story. But it\'s the best job in the world, so keep going.\\nFind out more about this week\'s guests \\nEmma Snowsill Frodeno Instagram\\nLa Comuna website and instagram\\nLike what you heard?\\nLet me know!
