Julie Derron: From Olympic Podium to Ironman World Champs

Julie Derron is an Olympic silver medallist, one of triathlon’s fastest runners, and part of a powerhouse sporting family.

We spent 24 hours with her in St. Moritz to get an inside look at her training, mindset, and the values that have shaped her journey.

From Olympic dreams to Kona ambitions, Julie is training hard, dreaming big, and keeping it real.
