SEASON 3, EPISODE 7
KELLY CATALE
RELEASED NOVEMBER 8, 2022
Professional endurance mountain biker and mental health advocate Kelly Catale has always had a competitive streak — from her earliest biking memory of trying to out-do her twin sister when first learning to ride, to Marathon Mountain Bike World Circuit as a rider for Team USA. And if there’s one thing I quickly learned during our conversation, it’s that Kelly Catale only knows one way to do things: WITH BOTH FEET, ALL IN! There have been a multitude of triumphs, some memorable type 2 fun, and some much-needed type 1 fun. But having spent 30+ years dedicated to finding glory at the finish line, it hasn’t always been easy. Opening up about her own mental health, she also shares with us a voice that a lot of people feel, but can be too shy or embarrassed to vocalize. It was wonderful to spend time with such a determined and caring human.
