The Third 500

By: Maddy Duerig Maddy H-K and Meg Varcoe
  • Summary

  • This podcast is for the retired athlete. Many high school, college and elite level athletes take on their sport as being part of their identity. So what happens when they're done and are beginning their post-athlete life? The creators of this podcast, Maddy Duerig, Maddy H-K and Meg Varcoe, rowed together at Syracuse University for four years and want to share what life was like being a D1 student-athlete versus what it's like now, being retired athletes. Listen along as three best friends navigate the post collegiate world.
