## Resource

In this episode: Diving into the chaotic yet exhilarating world of triathlon and medicine, this episode showcases the fascinating journey of Pavlos Antoniedes, a medical student who somehow juggles both rigorous academic studies and being a national-level triathlete. Imagine the life of someone who, while mastering the complex anatomy of the human body, also trains like a beast, preparing for grueling competitions. The conversation starts with the absurdity of trying to balance a medical career with the demands of elite triathlon training. Pavlos shares his backstory—how he transitioned from hockey to triathlon, driven by family ties and a desire to find a sport that resonated with him. As we laugh and shake our heads at the sheer madness of it all, he reveals how he manages to keep his training schedule flexible enough to dodge the pitfalls of burnout and exhaustion, all while excelling in medical school. It's a wild ride filled with insights into the pressures athletes face, the mental gymnastics needed to excel in both fields, and the occasional sarcastic quip about medical exams and race days that will leave you chuckling at the absurdity of it all.
