I’m Shangrila Rendon, 2x Guinness World Record holder, 48-time Ironman distance finisher, Ultraman and IM Kona finisher, keynote speaker, author, creator of Smart Training Method and Founder of Feisty Fox Coaching.

But I didn’t start this way.

At 24, I couldn’t swim, didn’t own a bike, and could barely run for 15 minutes. I battled depression, PTSD, addiction, eating disorder and the lasting scars of childhood abuse, sexual assault.

Endurance sport became the path I used to rebuild myself.

I trained hard, failed often, and never gave up. And now I help others do the same.

I created this podcast to help you go farther, inspire others, and become unstoppable.

    Finish Half Marathon Sub 1h 40min Injury-Free (From 12:21 min/mile pace to 7:21min/mile pace)
    Dec 30 2025

    Think you can’t run a sub 1h 40min Half Marathon because of pain, weight, or just starting out?

    It’s time to crush those limiting beliefs and see what’s possible.

    You don’t have to settle for just finishing. Whether it’s your first half marathon or your fifth, you have the power to crush it, without pain and without the limits you’ve set for yourself.

    I’ve heard it all before:

    "It's my first official half marathon. I just want to finish." "I have weight to lose." "I ran my first half marathon in nearly 3 hours." "I’m struggling with pain or discomfort. I'm taking it easy on my workouts. Just zone 2."

    But honestly, none of that matters when you're training smart.

    It’s not only about where you are right now... It’s about where you’re going. And if you believe in yourself, the possibilities are endless.

    This episode is for those who want more. We’re not just talking about finishing. We’re talking about thriving.

    👉 If you’re struggling with your pace, your weight, or injuries, this training will change the game for you. 👉 Whether you’re aiming for a sub 2-hour half marathon or even sub 1:40, this training is for you. 👉 If you’ve ever doubted your potential, we’ll show you how to unlock it.

    Here’s what you’ll learn today:

    🏃‍♀️ How to train for your first or fastest half marathon without overtraining or risking injury. 🏃‍♀️ How to tackle any pain, from foot, knee, hip, hamstring, groin to IT band, with targeted strategies that keep you running strong. 🏃‍♀️ Build strength, speed, and confidence even if you’re just starting out or dealing with weight or pain. 🏃‍♀️ Smarter fueling, recovery, and technique to make every mile easier.

    This isn’t just about finishing a race. It’s about creating the best version of you: strong, confident, and unstoppable. So, if you're ready to break through your limits, join us!

  • Wondering How to Fix your Freestyle?

    Wondering How to Fix your Freestyle?
    Dec 19 2025
    Wondering how to fix your freestyle? Or why it still feels off? Most adult swimmers spend years stuck in the same broken stroke, even after binging YouTube, scrolling reels, attending workshop after workshop, and following structured swim plans. Here’s why: Your body always defaults to what it knows. And unless you retrain your movement map or change the way you train, no amount of drills or cues will stick. In this 12-minute episode I go over: - Why technique tweaks don’t stick - The hidden reason your stroke isn’t improving - How to retrain your freestyle without starting from scratch This one’s for the swimmer doing everything “right" and still not getting results.
