Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. This week, we continue our series on Purple Patch Case Studies, where we hear first-hand experiences of time-starved athletes on their journey towards improved performance in sports and life.

This week, Matt welcomes Purple Patch athletes Rachel Brown and Tiger Paton. Rachel, a busy mother of seven boys, is a passionate runner with a wonderful story of shifting perspectives. By embracing the tri-squad approach, Rachel evolved her understanding of training and multi-sport to become a faster runner and unlocked abilities she never considered.

Tiger Paton, a well-known figure in the Purple Patch community, serves as our squad specialist and program manager. She began her journey as a Purple Patch Squad athlete several years ago. She shares an inspiring lesson about perseverance. As a new athlete, she fully used all the tools in the program to overcome injury and fatigue. Struggling to find time for her health and needing a change, Tiger found support in the Purple Patch community. She integrated training into her life and wholeheartedly embraced her journey as a triathlete. Tiger's story is an outstanding example of athlete development in sport and life.

Both case studies highlight valuable lessons and practical advice to boost your progress or inspire you to kick-start your journey towards your future self.
