Courtney Conlogue is in the upper echelon of competitive surfing. Currently ranked in the top three on the womenโs tour, she’s known for her powerful turns, positive attitude, work ethic, and incredible fitness capacity. It’s all a testament to the fact that she has an amazing ability to set goals and achieve them.
In 2016, she modeled for ESPN the Magazine’s Body Issue, getting barreled while naked and she narrowly missed a world title, finishing runner up on the WSL’s Elite Tour. As she says herself, she’s used to wearing the yellow jersey this time of year but she’s still searching for her first title, so we talk about what you can learn from losing, how she trains, how she sets goals, what she does when she achieves them, and even what she loves outside of the water.
