Ep.7 Noor Khouja

The World Triathlon Podcast - A podcast by World Triathlon

"What we do is more than coaching for these young people who have no little more than war for the last 10 years. Training is a bond, it is entertainment to cheer them up. Triathlon lets us run from our reality and our fear.” Against all the odds, triathlon coach Noor Khouja and the Aleppo triathlon community at large have continued to build the sport and hold races out of the rubble of Syria's second city. Noor reveals some of the triumphs and tragedies of the past decade that have made him more determined than ever to help young local athletes escape their fears and achieve their dreams.
