NASA astronaut Sunita Williams is a triathlete when she’s on Earth and sees no reason why being stationed on the International Space Station should keep her from a good race. Williams plans to participate in the August 12 7 mile Falmouth Road Race as well as the September 15 Nautica Malibu Triathlon. Williams is no stranger to space racing, having become the first orbiter to complete the Boston Marathon on her last trip to ISS in 2007.
Below, Williams discusses her workout program preparing for the upcoming competitions:
