Lilly Soliman

Lilly grew up in East LA one of the toughest neighborhoods in California, where you either become a victim or a survivor-Lilly choose the latter. In High School she ran cross country, upon graduating she decided to serve her country by joining the Army. After being called a "one trick pony" because she only ran marathons at the time-she started a two year quest to become a triathlete. The road to becoming an ironman wasn't easy. Lilly went from not owning a bike, knowing how to swim, getting injured, having an operation, shattering her toe to fully recovering and crossing the finish line a few weeks ago in Augusta GA. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/derek-oxley/support
