Pedals and Purpose: Laura King on Family, Racing, and Changing the Game for Women in Cycling

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with cyclist, community builder, and women's advocate Laura King for an inspiring and down-to-earth conversation about balancing elite performance with real life. We dive into Laura’s unique journey—racing Ironman triathlons, helping shape the gravel scene through Rooted Vermont, and most recently, redefining what it means to be an athlete while navigating pregnancy and postpartum.
Laura shares how she stayed connected to sport while cycling through both of her pregnancies, the mindset shifts that came with motherhood, and how she continues to chase big goals while raising a family. We also explore her advocacy for women in cycling, the barriers that still exist, and the community efforts she’s leading to create more inclusive and empowering spaces for female athletes.
Whether you're a parent, an athlete, or just someone passionate about sport and personal growth, Laura's story is a powerful reminder that it's possible to evolve, shift gears, and still ride strong.
