A Day in the Life of Pro Triathlete Kaylee Slade

How Kaylee manages her pro triathlon career, studies, and on top of it all, her YouTube channel

For some, attending veterinarian school to become an orthopedic surgeon would be enough. But for first-year pro triathlete Kaylee Slade, it’s just what she does between workouts. And somehow, Kaylee and her partner Brian also have time for their own YouTube channel. Kaylee only took up the sport in 2021, and it’s mind-blowing just how she does it. She’ll be making her pro debut this weekend at Clash Miami, good luck Kaylee! 

Study O’Clock

4:30 am - 6:30 am: My body is programmed to wake up at 6 AM, but with exams coming up, and a surgery lab taking up most of my time, today called for more waking hours and more caffeine! The alarm greeted me at 4:30 AM, and I started studying for an upcoming anesthesia exam with help from a quad shot of espresso. There aren’t many supplements I believe in, but caffeine is definitely one of them.

I also start off the day with around 250-400 cals, mostly carbs, mostly belVita’s.
