Ep 55: McKendree Hickory | Trail Runner Making HERstory

She's only 19 years old but already she's accomplished something less than a handful of pro surfers have done in their entire careers: win back-to-back Championship Tour events at two of the world's highest performance, and consequence waves, Teahupo'o, Tahiti and Cloudbreak, Fiji. Erin Brooks' real accomplishment though, is the mindset she was able to shift herself into that made it possible. Entering these two events, her back was against the wall to make the WSL's postseason, but a trip to her favorite place in the world, some great advice from a fish, and chasing joy, not results, turned everything around.

Don't forget to follow Erin through the rest of her season and follow/subscribe The PowHERful on all your channels!

Ep 54: Pro Surfer Erin Brooks on HERstoric Win & The Mindset That Made it Possible

Since 1912 there’s been a men’s Olympic decathlon, the year is 2026 and there is still no women’s Olympic decathlon. That’s a fact that women around the world are fighting to change through the Women’s Decathlon Championships. The event is in its 4th Annual event and will host more athletes, from more countries, than ever before, including Paris 2024 Heptathlete Camryn Newton-Smith. The Australian multi-event specialist takes us inside the sexism that has long been accepted, what it takes in order to become an elite level decathlete and how we can watch and support this movement that she hopes will see her an Olympic decathlete in her home country in just a few years. 

Watch the event LIVE on Sunday, August 9th on the Women’s Sports Network and follow along @womensdecathlon as the event unfolds from Cleveland, Ohio.
