About this listen
After 20 years as a professional triathlete, Josh Amberger is stepping up to the start line one last time—PatagonMan XTri—his final race as a pro and maybe ever. In this round-two conversation, I get to hear Josh open up in a way he never has publicly about what it means for him to close the chapter on the only life he’s known since he was a teenager.
We talk about the emotion of letting go, why he chose Patagonia Man as his farewell, the relief and grief wrapped up in retirement, the changing landscape of elite sport, the beauty of racing for experience rather than results, and what life after triathlon might look like for him—from gravel racing to rediscovering creativity to supporting Ash as she chases her own career.
It’s a raw, honest conversation about transition, identity, and what happens when you stop just doing the thing…and finally let yourself feel it.
