Show notes

Sam Laidlow lead for most of the race at his Kona debut, eventually finishing 2nd to Gustav Iden. He surprised many by obliterating the Kona bike course record and splitting the Norwegian favourites of Iden & Blummenfelt on the day. On his return to the Oxygenaddict Podcast, we talk about: How he burst onto the Iron-distance scene at Lakesman in 2019... What he learned from upsetting Sam Long at the Collins Cup... The race strategy & tactics at the front of the race in Kona... His power numbers during the bike leg and why he thought he'd gone too hard too soon... Why he plans to exit the water with a several minute lead at the next World Champs... The innovations and equipment decisions that helped him to his Kona result... The importance of building a personal brand as a professional athlete and why it's not all about race results... Why he'd prefer people to hate him than be indifferent about him... Smashing the Kona bike course record without a bike sponsor(!)... Whether he believes he can beat Gustav in future World Champs... Sponsors Like what you heard in this interview?

415 Chris McCormack: "Don't Underestimate the Power of a Dream" Dec 14, 2022

Show notes

Chris McCormack is a man who moved seamlessly between his life as a professional triathlete (2x Kona Champion, multiple World Champion) and his new business career. As the man behind SuperLeague Triathlon, he has been pivotal in helping ‘professionalise’ the sport of triathlon, giving athletes chance to race (and make money) from short course racing outside of a traditional governing body route. It’s a series that turned triathlon into a more spectator friendly format and made short racing exciting for the general public. As one of the founders of the Pho3nix Foundation, he’s helping fund hundreds of children and young athletes from disadvantaged backgrounds to be able to achieve their potential in Olympic sport. More than that, Macca is one of the biggest fans of triathlon, and one of it’s big thinkers, and we hear his views on where he sees triathlon going next, we review the 2022 triathlon year, and talk about who will be the names to watch in 2023.

Show notes

Joining us on the show this week is the CEO of the Ironman Group, Andrew Messick. Ironman announced late last week that there would be NO two day World Championships in Hawaii in 2023, and that instead, the event will be a split location event.

Is there a possibility of the race moving from Kona in the future? We put all these questions to the CEO - listen in to hear what he has to say. Sponsors Like what you heard in this interview?

411 Age Group Story: Dr. Karim Hammad Nov 16, 2022

Show notes

Dr. Karim Hammad recently competed at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in St. George. A busy doctor, he’s had to learn to balance his desire to train against the realities of his job: 12 hour on-call shifts, night shifts and the challenges of unpredictable work load and lack of routine. His story involves a lot of acceptance of needing to train around ‘the way things are’ rather than ‘the way we would ideally like things to be’, and his success qualifying for the World Championships underlines the importance for all of us of putting recovery, and health, first.
