Some Olympic competitors with golden aspirations and expectations may be less than satisfied with a bronze medal. Katie Zaferes would not be one of them. Zaferes finished third in the Olympic triathlon in Tokyo and considers herself “the happiest bronze medal winner there ever was.”

In today’s In The Village podcast, Zaferes and host Elizabeth Beisel talk about her 2:45 a.m. wake-up call and practicing race transitions in her room. Zaferes also reveals a little TMI.
