Age Group drug testing, Race Ranger making drafting data public, reflection on Andrew Messick vs Scott Derues differences as CEO of Ironman, the T100 is (maybe) going to the Olympics, the Sam Laidlow conspiracy theory, the Kona favourites + can debutant win, which male & female triathletes train the hardest, should pro’s speak up if they are suspicious about an athlete doping + the first ever edition of pretender or contender. Yep, it was a big one!!

We start with the Ironman Frankfurt penalty drama from Kristian's perspective, his power numbers from the race to get a 9 minute lead off the bike and his intentional weight loss for the race. Then we go into ALL of his 2025 bike training Monday to Friday including session details + power numbers. ERG mode vs no ERG mode on the trainer, indoor training vs outdoor training, his Kona power numbers last year and some other race power numbers, his running training including all of his session/volume/long run details. His sleep, his problems with low sex drive + erectile dysfunction in the past and some really honest chat about getting draft assistance by lead motorbikes/cars on course at Ironman races, including this weekend at Ironman Frankfurt. This is the best pure training pod of 2025 so far.

Ironman Frankfurt happened over the weekend and it was full of chaos, drama and world class performances. There were disqualifications given, then taken back. Penalties galore. Arguments between athletes/athlete teams and referees on the course. Race changing mechanicals. Cramping/shoe issues. The Norwegian hype train was back in full force and dominating on the world stage, insane bike performances and so much more. This is one of the most action packed podcast of the year so far.

Last week Sam Long undertook an intensive 5 day swim training camp ran by the best swimmer in triathlon Greg Harper. On today’s podcast both Sam & Greg join us to tell us every single detail of what happened on that camp. All I asked of them before we did the podcast was “can you try and make all of us listening feel like we were there at the camp?” and I think that’s exactly what Sam & Greg achieved in this podcast. This is the kind of podcast we’ve never really had a lot of in triathlon before and is what I’m most passionate about bringing you all. I really hope you enjoy it!
