Episode 25 features Coach Reem Jishi. Reem grew up as an athlete, and was a three sport varsity athlete in high school - soccer, indoor track and outdoor track. In college and later law school, academics took priority and exercise became a more casual piece of her life. Upon graduating from law school, Reem moved to NYC to work in a large law firm. This meant working 80-100 hour weeks, and exercise was not in the picture. As she approached her thirtieth birthday, she knew she had to make a change. At the urging one of the partners at her firm, she decided to sign up for a half distance triathlon through Team in Training. This first triathlon sparked a flame that is still burning today. Over the past twenty five years, Reem has participated in countless triathlons, including representing Team USA on four occasions at the Age Group ITU World Championships, and racing in both the IRONMAN 70.3 and IRONMAN World Championship events. Reem also raced on the U.S. Professional Cycling circuit, and has done numerous run events from 5K to Marathon.
In 2010, Reem decided to retire from Corporate America and pursue her passion of helping others achieve their dreams. She opened up a fitness and coaching studio in upstate NY where she offered in person training opportunities. In 2018, Reem joined QT2 Systems as a coach and an athlete. As a coach, Reem works with a variety of athletes - from newbies to veterans, in running, cycling and various multi-sport activities. For Reem, what's most important, is that the athlete is excited about pursuing their athletic dreams. Training and racing should be a stress reliever, not a stress creator.
