New England Endurance Podcast

Granite State Endurance Project - Amber Ferreira

Art Trapotsis & Eric Schenker Season 2 Episode 9

Hi there! Feel free to drop us a text if you enjoy the episode.

In this episode of the New England Endurance Podcast, we sit down with Amber Ferreira—professional triathlete, mom, coach, and founder of the Granite State Endurance Project. Amber shares how she transformed her personal passion for endurance sports into a thriving community of athletes in New Hampshire. We explore what sets her coaching apart and why Granite State Endurance is about more than just training—it's about connection, grit, and joy in the process. We also chat about the Granite State Running Club and her involvement with that organization. 

Based in New Hampshire, Amber and GSEP cultivate a close-knit community of runners, triathletes, and adventurers.  This is our 6th episode with an endurance group based out of NH and, have to say, NH is making a strong case for most bad-ass endurance state in the country!

Before we dive in, it’s worth noting—we don’t often get to interview someone with their own Wikipedia page! Amber is a two-time U.S. Snowshoe Champion, the 2012 World Snowshoe Championship runner-up, and a Lake Placid Ironman champion. Needless to say, she brings the kind of grit and experience that’s hard to match. 

Amber's story and philosophy will leave you inspired to chase your goals a little harder—and strive for the balance of work, family, and fitness.

Art & Eric embark on a journey to showcase and celebrate the endurance sports community in New England.
