Podcast appearances and mentions of andreas dreitz

Schwimmen: Einer wahre Abenteuerin ist Nathalie Pohl, eine Extremschwimmerin. Sie ist die erste Deutsche, die die sieben gefährlichsten Meerengen der Welt durchquert hat, die so genannten „Ocean Seven“. Das alles nur im Badeanzug, Brille und Badekappe. Beim längsten Trip schwamm sie mal eben ununterbrochen knapp über 15 Stunden. Ein Interview wie ein Abenteuerfilm, von Herausforderungen, Zielen, Delfinen und Haien. Triathlon: Der Mythos Ironman Hawaii. Wie gut, dass wir jemanden sprechen konnten, der schon mehrmals auf Hawaii dabei war und uns diesen Mythos erklären kann. Es ist Andreas Dreitz, der in Italien mal einen Ironman gewann. Aber Hawaii ist dann doch noch irgendwie eine Stufe höher und damit reizvoller. Fussball: Die Frankfurter Buchmesse ist schon wieder Geschichte. Wir haben aber unseren Bücherwurm Christian Sprenger losgeschickt und er hat auf der Messe etwas gefunden. Denn es gibt auch Bücher, die sich um Fussball-Trikots kümmern. Was man da alles so niederschreiben kann, hat er dann in seiner Rubrik „Sprenger spricht“ mit dem Autor Stefan Appenowitz besprochen. Judo: Mit dem Remscheider TV holte Alexander Gabler den Titel als deutscher Mannschaftsmeister. Das war für den Ort im Bergischen Land historisch. Aber Gabler konnte nicht lange feiern, denn er musste noch nach Abu Dhabi zum Grand Slam und jetzt steht auch noch die Deutsche Einzel-Meisterschaft in Stuttgart auf dem Programm. Es geht also um den Titel, den er in den letzten beiden Jahren in seiner Gewichtsklasse gewonnen hat. Ein voller Oktober für den Judoka. Skeleton: Es ist immer, wenn tolle Sportler und Sportlerinnen ihre Karriere beenden. Im Skeleton ist es jetzt bei Tina Herrmann so. Sie ist die erfolgreichste Deutsche in dieser Sportart. Und klar, dass wir dann mit einer solchen erfolgreichen Athletin reden müssen. Hier gibt es die Interviews in voller Länge: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/sportstunde-interviews-in-voller-l%C3%A4nge/id1705390264?uo=4 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/00va1TW4YzTYDCGMpkNMOU Website. https://sportstunde-podcast.de/

Bei der Ironman-WM in St. George 2022 erlitt Andreas Dreitz einen schweren Unfall – und hatte anschließend lange mit den Folgen zu kämpfen. Ganze zwei Jahre. Nun hat der 35-Jährige endlich die Überhand über die Beschwerden gewonnen und prompt starke Ergebnisse eingefahren. Im Gespräch mit Jan Grüneberg erzählt er von dieser herausfordernden Zeit.

Claudi und Vedat sprechen über das mega Startfeld bei der Challenge Roth 2023. Bei der Aufnahme stand erst das Feld der Männer fest und wir fragen uns: kommt Jan Frodeno noch dazu? Das Triathlonfest in Roth verspricht einmal mehr, die Veranstaltung des Jahres zu werden! Das Training läuft bei Vedat. Er erzählt über die Tücken eines Trainingsplans und wie schwierig die Umsetzung ist, wenn man präzise sein möchte. Claudi, als Tecki, kann da helfen. Sie klärt Vedat über die Funktionen seiner Laufuhr auf. Die kann ihm und auch Euch nämlich bei der Umsetzung der Trainingsvorgaben gut unter die Arme greifen. Beim OSTSEEMAN 2023 gibt es aktuell nur noch Staffel-Startplätze über die Wartelisten. Bei uns sind die Staffelplätze, die wir, dank unserer Kooperation, füllen dürfen, bisher noch nicht vergeben. Bewerbt Euch noch bis zum 15. März! Diese und noch viele andere Themen erwarten Euch in unserer Episode #125.

Last week's IRONMAN World Championship was historic on many levels. We saw the IMWC raced on the big island after a two year pandemic induced hiatus. We saw the first two-day format with the women's race Thursday and the men's Saturday. We saw records blown away including all of the top 10 pro men finishing sub 8.and an American professional champion after a 20 year stretch.   This week we have coach and age group Kona competitor Lauren Vallee joining us to review last week's historic Ironman World Championship.   Show Sponsor: UCAN Generation UCAN has a full line of nutrition products to fuel your sport.

Despite attempts to pull away in the first half of the swim, neither were successful in building a definitive lead.   Instead, a staggering 19 pros exited the water within 15 seconds of each other, led by Angert in 48:15 and Laidlow in 48:16. This tight pack included some of the most dangerous triathletes in the field, setting up the likes of Kristian Blummenfelt, Gustav Iden, and Braden Currie in perfect position for a tactical race at the front of the field.   One minute and 15 seconds later, another large pack emerged from the water, containing even more strong cyclists capable of quickly bridging the gap. These included Igor Amorelli, Patrick Lange, Rudy Von Berg, and Magnus Ditlev.   A third and final large pack, four minutes down from the leaders, contained Matt Hanson, Chris Lieferman, Cam Wurf, Sebastian Kienle, Joe Skipper, and Lionel Sanders.   Laidlow was the one to take charge in the initial miles of the bike, setting an average pace of 27 miles per hour over the first 25 miles. Max Neumann was the only one willing to take the bait, staying just out of Laidlow's draft to avoid a penalty. Behind them, big groups stuck together as the crosswinds picked up through the lava fields. Fifty seconds down, the first chase group of 11 included Ditlev, Blummenfelt, Iden, O'Donnell, and Bakkegard; almost two minutes behind was a group of 18 that included contenders like Lange, Currie, Ben Hoffman, and Denis Chevrot.   At mile 30 on the bike, the massive groups continued through the rolling hills on the way to Hawi. With 42 men racing within 5 minutes of each other, space was hard to come by – and the referees noticed. As with the women's race on Thursday, the penalties began early and often, with Angert, Clement Mignon, Mathias Petersen, and Arnad Gilloux being the first to serve their five-minute punishment for position infractions. Leon Chevalier soon joined them for a one-minute penalty as well.   Soon, more setbacks started to snowball in the men's field. With each passing mile, Sanders saw the race get away from him as his position slipped from 4:42 down out of the water to 7:13 by mile 30. Colin Chartier, who was in the first large pack out of the swim, found it difficult to recover after an early flat tire. Lange seemed unable to jump on to the train of competitors passing him at full speed, and in a shocking twist, pre-race favorite Currie dropped from the race around mile 35.   Meanwhile, the men's race began to take shape near the base of Hawi as Ditlev went to the front of the race and took control. Behind him, Laidlow and Neumann could not match the effort, while countrymen and training partners Iden and Blummenfelt sat 30 seconds behind Ditlev, working together near mile 50.   Just after the Hawi turnaround, Laidlow reclaimed his lead, but Ditlev, Neumann, Blummenfelt, and Iden were hot on his tail. Further back, a group including Kyle Smith, Tim O'Donnell, and Jesper Svensson trailed the leaders by 2:30; 3:30 back from the leaders were Kristian Hogenhaug and Daniel Bakkegard. A big group of dangerous bike/runners sat 5 minutes behind the front pack that included Wurf, Chevalier, Skipper, Lange, Kienle, and Andreas Dreitz.   Near mile 90, disorganization plagued the chase group of Iden, Blummenfelt, Ditlev, and Neumann as they lost an additional 1:30 to the race leader, Laidlow. Further back, Wurf, Kienle, and Chevalier led a rally to try to get within striking distance of the front, putting 2:20 into the Norwegian group over a span of over 10 miles. As the race barreled toward T2, the chaos continued, with Ditlev receiving a five-minute position penalty at a time when most would be making their critical moves in a race.   Up front, Laidlow seemed to not know – or care – about what was playing out behind him. Instead, the young gun stayed focused on his own race, surging ahead. By mile 88, Laidlow's lead grew to 2:37; at mile 94, a 4:11 advantage.   Heading into T2, Laidlow smashed Cam Wurf's 2018 bike course record with a split of 4:04:36—knocking almost five minutes off the previous time. Behind him, the chase group was six minutes down, and the second chase had 8:30-9:45 to make up.   Laidlow set out on the run with a target on his back. The question then became: Would his bold bike strategy pay off, or would it end in disaster? Could he actually beat the notoriously fast Norwegian runners to the finish line? Could anyone? As the men's pro field moved through T2, the field shifted from large packs to a steady trickle. It was soon clear who had paced themselves well on the bike and who had burned their matches. Behind Laidlow, Blummenfelt and Iden led the charge, setting out at a 5:54 minute-per-mile pace to the leader's 6:13 pace. Behind them, O'Donnell and Kienle were the fastest movers in the second chase pack early in the run, along with Ditlev—finally released from his penalty.   As Laidlow made his way up the Palani climb, his pace slowed to 6:23. Iden and Blummenfelt powered on, checking their watches to ensure they were sticking to their staggeringly consistent 5:58 pace. With every footfall, they seemed to cut into Laidlow's lead. Neumann, looking to hold his own in his Kona debut, followed suit.   Slightly further back, strong runners like Kienle and Ditlev were working together as well, slowly making their way up through the top ten, through the first half of the marathon—as did Joe Skipper. At the halfway point, they found themselves in fifth and sixth place, with elder statesman Kienle offering words of encouragement to the young Dane as they ran together.   Between miles 11 and 16, the Norwegians' march toward Laidlow started to stall as the Frenchman found a way to staunch the bleeding. As he made his way out the Queen K, it seemed as if he found a pace he could comfortably sustain. At the turnaround in the infamous Energy Lab, Laidlow could see exactly where he was relative to his competition. He knew he had a lead of just over two minutes, but what he didn't know was whether or not the Norwegians had another gear. Anticipating a battle, Laidlow gathered all he could from the aid stations – cups of ice, a gallon bottle of water to douse himself on the scalding Kona pavement.   Indeed, Iden had just decided to drop his friend and training partner, pulling ahead in the Energy Lab just before mile 19, while Blummenfelt trailed behind. With less than eight miles to go, Iden broke out into 4:38 min/mi pace, laser-focused on the task ahead.   At mile 22, Iden gave Laidlow a pat on the back to let him know his time at the front was up. With a handshake and a smile, Iden made the pass, striding confidently to the finish line.   After the pass, it was the Iden show, as the Norwegian extended his lead to set a new course record with a time of 7:40:24 and a new run course record of 2:36:15. Not far behind, Sam Laidlow valiantly hung on for second place with a time that also broke the previous run record, 7:42:24. Kristian Blummenfelt would fade only slightly, but still stand on the podium with another course record time of 7:43:23.   “That was so freaking hard,” Iden said just moments after his record-setting finish. “The last 10K I was worried about the legend of the island killing me. Everything was going pretty smoothly until I caught Sam Laidlow. When I passed him, the island really tried to put me down. But I think my hat must be stronger than the legend of the island.   “That was so epic, and I'm so proud of Sam and Kristian making the podium. I'm not sure if I'm coming back here, this was too hard.”   What's New in the 303: Asking For a Friend, Is Anything Possible to Change the IRONMAN World Championships? Bill Plock Oct 12, 2022–I promise, this opinion is not rooted in sour grapes. I really think IRONMAN should consider either moving the championship race somewhere affordable with easier logistics, or go back to one day of racing and figuring out how to make it somewhat bigger and equitable for men and women. Much easier said than done.   Some have suggested having the men and women race at different times of year, in Kona, or rotating the men and women every other year. It seems to me keeping this format of a Thursday/Saturday race with 5,000 amateurs competing isn't sustainable or good for the race long term. And, I suspect it was quite hard on the island despite the economic windfall estimated at over a $100 million.   The IRONMAN World Championships is a very unique sporting event. It's really the most successful pro/am event in the world if you ask me. Sure golf tournaments usually have a VIP pro/am round before the tournament, but name a world championship where the best of all categories compete at the same time in the same venue.   What I fear with the new two day format, by more than doubling the number of participants and more than doubling the cost, the Golden Goose of triathlon will get squeezed too tight and stop laying the proverbial egg which lures age group athletes to dedicate their lives (and pocketbooks) to racing in Kona. And for marginal pro's with very little hope at a prize and footing their own bill, maybe they forgo Kona and the field shrinks?   After shopping condos for 2023 at unbelievably high prices, I know 303 probably won't be able to bring you first hand stories and celebrate the success of our well represented state of Colorado. I”m sure we aren't the only ones and I would fear, more importantly, if deserving athletes and their families forgo participating because of costs. I know that has happened over the years, but now it will probably become a reality more and more.   This race, Kona, is way more than a race. It's a celebration. It's a lifetime pursuit and a lifestyle. The red carpets are literally rolled out. Age group athletes feel like rock stars. And they are.   But the race needs folks like us, and volunteers, and fans and industry support. We all know it costs a fortune to attend the Olympics, or a Super Bowl. They are exclusive as well. But they are TV sports and most of the world is happy to watch at home. And those venues take place in large cities and are accessible by car. It's easy and affordable to be near the venue in most cases and feel the vibe. But not in Kona. You pay to get there or you don't. No drive by's happening there.   This year it seemed to go fairly “ok” logistically from all accounts but no doubt there were complaints. We were supposed to go, but our condo was mysteriously condemned due to “mold” in late July—I'm skeptical and think it went back on the market for double the rate. That's what happened to pro Joe Skipper who almost pulled out when his condo booking was revoked and they asked for three times more and he vented frustration on his IG account. https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch27WEirBdO/   I am curious how the two midnight finishes played out and if it was electric like always. I can't imagine any men racing on Saturday hung out to cheer Thursday. I was sad to miss Mike Reilly's last call. I was bummed to miss all of it.   I'm torn because I loved watching the pro women race by themselves and get the attention they deserve and race under more fair conditions without the fast age-group men interferring and having more favorable weather. But as far as a race experience, I've heard some complaints about less aid stations because of less volunteers available and a few other minor things.   Said finisher and triathlon coach Lauren Vallee who will be featured on our podcast this weekend to talk about all this, “There was a notable decrease in volunteers, but that's expected given the demand this event takes on the community. We knew in advance where aid would be and given the opportunity to plan accordingly.  The run aid stations being farther apart certainly impacted peoples days, but I decided to race with a bottle and had no issues with getting anything I needed from one station to another.”   This race is already darn hard to qualify for, now it's darn hard to afford. With so many more participants, volunteers, and spectators converging on the big island with the same amount of bed space as always, does this just make the sport that much less inclusive than it already is? There is already a correlation between the high incomes of triathletes and participation, does this just makes it worse? It must.   Condo's for 2023 have more than doubled in cost to more than $500 per night plus fees for a one bedroom. I booked a two bedroom condo for this year (the one condemned), in the same building, for $225 per night.  And I'm just a guy with laptop. I don't have race fees (which are going up substantially next year), bike transport and all that goes with racing.   I really don't fault the tourism industry, it's a free market, take what you can get, and during Covid they got pretty much nothing. Thats how it works. And IRONMAN must see a demand of people willing to pay to play, but something has to give, and it will at some point.   I get the tradition of this race and importance of its heritage, legacy and the aspiration it provides. I get the mentality of “you can't move the Boston Marathon to Las Vegas and call it the Boston Marathon.” But this is the IRONMAN World Championship. It's not the Kona World Championship. It could be somewhere else like what happens with the 70.3's.   The solution is not easy, nor do I really have one other than being open to changing something to keep it accessible to not only athletes, but to fans, supporters, volunteers and others who want this sport to have the best championship possible.   I'm just asking for a friend, posing a question of what, if anything is possible.     TriDot Mark Allen Edition - LEARN WHY THE "GREATEST OF ALL TIME" CHOSE TRIDOT AND ENTER TO WIN A LIFETIME SUBSCRIPTION TO TRIDOT & A NEW GARMIN FORERUNNER 955 SOLAR WATCH.

Andreas Dreitz bekommt Wildcard für Hawaii // Kalles Weg führt über Portugal, Namibia und Israel zur WM 2023 Aloha Kalle heißt es mal wieder. Mit einem verkrampften Rückblick auf den BerlinWoMan und einem "zweiten" Recap zum Ironman Mont Tremblant beginnt der wöchentliche Talk von Triathlon-Profi Marcus Herbst und Agegrouper Conrad Kebelmann. Schließlich richtet sich der Blick nach vorn, denn bis Jahresende stehen noch weitere Highlights auf dem Menü...

Zum ersten Mal seit neun Wochen gibt es Carbon & Laktat wieder in der Konstellation Nils Flieshardt und Frank Wechsel. Der Chefredakteur und der Publisher sind wieder da – und bald schon wieder weg, wenn die Reise nach Big Island ansteht. Mit dieser Episode eröffnen wir die Kona-Coverage 2022!

WTCS racing is back and we saw some seriously action packed racing over the weekend with Team GB dominating both the men's and women's races. We discuss some more news to come out of St George including reports that Andreas Dreitz was taken out by an on course motorbike, Alistair Brownlee's reaction to sitting the race out and the pacer reveals for Sub7Sub8 next month. We then also look at the news that Gustav Iden is racing The Challenge Championship, a race we had forgotten was even on which makes us ask, does anyone really care about The Championship?

That corresponds to 1440 in the UK, 1540 CET and 0940 Eastern Time.   The race will be broadcast live, with the event the first of 11 IRONMAN 70.3 events to be broadcast in 2022 in a new partnership with Outside TV. You will be able to watch for free via web, mobile or connected TV app.   PRO Men Let's kick off with the triathlon racing return of Alistair Brownlee. Not for the first time in his career, it's been a long road back from injury and surgery for the two-time Olympic Champion.   Lionel Sanders is no stranger to this race – he went 3rd / 1st / 1st / 2nd between 2015 and 2018 – and is on a similar road to Brownlee for the IRONMAN World Championship St George. Whatever happens during the swim and bike, he's expecting this one to come down to the late stages of the run… and is very confident of where his form is at for that final discipline.   Ben Kanute must be a strong contender, having won the last two editions. He has already raced well this year – third at CLASH Miami – and will surely be better here as a result of that. He's already said that Oceanside is an event he is excited for.   Sam Long, the winner in Miami, is on the start list but after his impressive start to the year he is seemingly set to skip this one and fully focus on prep for St. George. Jason West, who finished second in Miami (and was fifth last year), will race however. No thoughts of May 7 for him however.   Opening his season here will be Rudy Von Berg, who we spoke to at length earlier in the year. He also knows the race well, racing fifth in 2018 and second in 2019, and he is rarely far from the podium in any race. If he's in contention in the late stages of the run too, watch out as he typically has an extra gear over the closing kilometres if needed.   Rudy is another athlete not thinking about St George – though he will make his full-distance debut at IRONMAN France later this year.   Add in Sam Appleton, Jackson Laundry, Matt Hanson, Andreas Dreitz, David McNamee, Bart Aernouts and more and you have what will be perhaps the deepest field we will see this side of St George.   PRO Women Just as with the men's race, we have both a stellar cast of talent and an intriguing mix with some athletes looking towards St George and others fully intent on spoiling their plans.   Daniela Ryf has five World Championship titles to her name over this distance, which in years past would make her the odds-on favourite for the win. She took top spot on the podium here in 2019.   Second to Laura Philipp at IRONMAN 70.3 Dubai earlier this month was a strong start to Daniela's year, but not quite enough as yet to think she is back to her absolute brilliant and almost unbeatable best. Will this be another step towards that status? That is one of the most interesting sub-plots of this event.   We will see something new from Taylor Knibb this week – she's got a TT bike! It's not as though her road bike was seemingly holding her back in 2021 to be fair, where she earned a World Championship bronze medal in only her second 70.3 race start, as well as that impressive display at the Collins Cup. Oh, and an Olympic Games silver medal was pretty good too.   Still a youngster in triathlon terms, how will a bit more planning before that first race (and the new bike) impact her performance in 2022?   Just as with the men, we have the defending champion racing here in the shape of Canadian star Paula Findlay. She was in a class of her own on the bike in October, and reflecting back on that hugely impressive PTO 2020 Championship victory in December 2020, she is strong across all three disciplines. At her best, that makes her tough for anyone to beat.   Holly Lawrence (2017) and Heather Jackson (2015 and 2013) add to the previous winners set to race on Saturday, and both have multiple World Championship podium finishes on their records, Lawrence of course taking the IRONMAN 70.3 title in 2016.   Australia's Ashleigh Gentle made seemingly light work of CLASH Miami recently as everyone around her was melting in the baking Florida heat, while Skye Moench was an impressive sixth at the 70.3 World Championship and Jackie Hering was just one place behind her in Utah. They will all add further quality to what should be a fantastic race.   That's far from a complete list of podium contenders either – don't miss it.   You can find the full Pro start list here.   Prize Money: What's on the line? The prize purse on offer this weekend is $50,000 – with each of the winners collecting a $7,500 share of that total   In addition to money, there will be a total of six qualifying slots (three MPRO / three FPRO) for the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in St George in late October 2022.   The total funds will be paid eight-deep, as follows:   $7,500 $5,000 $3,750 $3,000 $2,000 $1,500 $1,250 $1,000   IRONMAN 70.3 Texas in Galveston - Beachside Best Race with us at Memorial Hermann IRONMAN 70.3 Texas and experience the best of both worlds, blending together a PR chasers dream course with a beachside bliss atmosphere.

But not only Migraine, athletes with fatigue and dizziness, and how to train and race while living with a chronic illness or disease.   There are plenty of lists of famous athletes and Olympians who have migraine: Amanda Beard, Steve Kerr, Ian Thorpe, Dwyane Wade. But these articles rarely go into the details of how these athletes manage the sometimes debilitating effects of Migraine. We just know that they have. It's not helpful. The Cleveland Clinic says, “an exertional headache occurs when an activity causes veins and arteries to expand to allow more blood flow. That expansion and increased blood pressure create pressure in the skull, which causes the pain.”   Without further ado, here are some recommendations by sites, my commentary on it, and some things I do in a vain attempt to reduce the severity of the exercise-induced headaches I get after hard efforts, long efforts, or races   WHAT MIGRAINE CANADA SUGGESTS When I actually found an article with tips for athletes with Migraine, I've either been doing the suggestion already, I won't do it, or it isn't even applicable. Migraine Canada suggests the following:   Stick to a schedule Eat and sleep at regular times Exercise regularly Eat a healthy diet Find factors that are triggering the Migraine (light sensitivity = wear sunglasses; noise sensitivity = wear earplugs) What I do While these all make sense for even someone who doesn't have Migraine, what happens if you already have a daily headache and strenuous exercise makes it worse? Because I do. What if exercise, is in fact, the trigger? Because it is for me. And when you are sticking to a schedule, eating regularly and healthily, and getting enough sleep, then what? Yes, I do these things.   I regularly go to bed around 9:00 PM and wake up around 5:30 AM. Lately, I've been trying to eat 6 small meals every 2-3 hours throughout the day. Before that, I'd eat 3 meals every 4ish hours. “Exercising regularly” varies between people, but I workout 6 days per week and one day is reserved for rest and yoga. I try to make sure my diet consists mostly of whole, real foods. So, food that doesn't have a ton of weird ingredients listed or if you left it outside the fridge for too long, it'll go bad.   If you also do all these things, and you still have headaches, there are more things to try, so keep reading.   WHAT NEW YORK HEADACHE CENTER SAYS Another article (I emailed them about the misspelled title already) differentiates between exertional headaches and effort-induced headaches. Exertional headaches are caused by lifting, pushing, or pulling. They list sex, coughing, sneezing, or straining to shit as some of the triggers for an exertional headache.   Effort-induced headaches are caused by aerobic activities like running, swimming, cycling, etc. They think that if you're dehydrated, hypoglycemic, or overheated, this can result in an effort-induced headache. The authors also believe if you're low in Magnesium then this would also contribute to effort-induced headaches. Their recommendations were:   To take an NSAID an hour prior to the activity Get a prescription for Indomethacin Do a proper warm-up and cool-down What I do While taking an NSAID every once in a while won't cause much harm, taking one every time before a strenuous workout will actually cause a rebound headache. This is when you essentially become dependent on the NSAID. When the pain-relieving effects wear off, you take another one and another one and another one.     A New Kind of Gravel Bike Festival in Elbert County If you love biking, particularly on quiet gravel roads and dirt trails maybe combine it with a family oriented camping event complete with music, food, beer, the Mad Gravel on Memorial Day weekend might be for you. Rattler Racing will host the second annual Mad Gravel race at the picturesque Peaceful Valley Scout Ranch in Elbert County, Colorado on Saturday, May 28th, Sunday, May 29th and Monday, May 30th, 2022.  Mad Gravel is now a full-on 3-day weekend event with a little something for everyone.   Saturday will be a fast and furious circuit race within the boundaries of the Peaceful Valley Scout Ranch. Runners also get to enjoy most of the same course on a 5K trail course before the cyclists take off. Look for some great winding gravel roads, double track, and a mix of twisty single-track sections. Sunday is the biggie. Racers and riders have the option to pick one of three epic routes along the eastern Colorado slope. Monday including a sweet mountain bike course highlighting the great trails within the ranch. Participants will get to take in amazing views of Colorado's high 14'ers, and enjoy an optimum vantage point of the entire front range.  All three days of Mad Gravel are fully supported with multiple aid stations.   Mad Gravel 2022 has been through many iterations. There aren't many gravel events where you get to try your hand at a circuit race the day before the big event. Says race director Dave Muscianisi, “In scouting out our mountain bike course last November, we thought portions of that course would be perfect for a gravel circuit. And with a circuit race already set up, how about starting the weekend with a trail run? And, since we have 3 days to work with, let's get the MGXC mountain bike race going on Monday. Why? Because we can.”     Video of the Week Lance Armstrong Passed In Last Second of Ironman Texas 70.3       Upcoming Guests   Andy Potts and Daniel Brienza of APRacing   Closing: Thanks again for listening in this week.  Please be sure to follow us @303endurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment.  We'd really appreciate it!

That corresponds to 1440 in the UK, 1540 CET and 0940 Eastern Time.   The race will be broadcast live, with the event the first of 11 IRONMAN 70.3 events to be broadcast in 2022 in a new partnership with Outside TV. You will be able to watch for free via web, mobile or connected TV app.   PRO Men Let's kick off with the triathlon racing return of Alistair Brownlee. Not for the first time in his career, it's been a long road back from injury and surgery for the two-time Olympic Champion.   Lionel Sanders is no stranger to this race – he went 3rd / 1st / 1st / 2nd between 2015 and 2018 – and is on a similar road to Brownlee for the IRONMAN World Championship St George. Whatever happens during the swim and bike, he's expecting this one to come down to the late stages of the run… and is very confident of where his form is at for that final discipline.   Ben Kanute must be a strong contender, having won the last two editions. He has already raced well this year – third at CLASH Miami – and will surely be better here as a result of that. He's already said that Oceanside is an event he is excited for.   Sam Long, the winner in Miami, is on the start list but after his impressive start to the year he is seemingly set to skip this one and fully focus on prep for St. George. Jason West, who finished second in Miami (and was fifth last year), will race however. No thoughts of May 7 for him however.   Opening his season here will be Rudy Von Berg, who we spoke to at length earlier in the year. He also knows the race well, racing fifth in 2018 and second in 2019, and he is rarely far from the podium in any race. If he's in contention in the late stages of the run too, watch out as he typically has an extra gear over the closing kilometres if needed.   Rudy is another athlete not thinking about St George – though he will make his full-distance debut at IRONMAN France later this year.   Add in Sam Appleton, Jackson Laundry, Matt Hanson, Andreas Dreitz, David McNamee, Bart Aernouts and more and you have what will be perhaps the deepest field we will see this side of St George.   PRO Women Just as with the men's race, we have both a stellar cast of talent and an intriguing mix with some athletes looking towards St George and others fully intent on spoiling their plans.   Daniela Ryf has five World Championship titles to her name over this distance, which in years past would make her the odds-on favourite for the win. She took top spot on the podium here in 2019.   Second to Laura Philipp at IRONMAN 70.3 Dubai earlier this month was a strong start to Daniela's year, but not quite enough as yet to think she is back to her absolute brilliant and almost unbeatable best. Will this be another step towards that status? That is one of the most interesting sub-plots of this event.   We will see something new from Taylor Knibb this week – she's got a TT bike! It's not as though her road bike was seemingly holding her back in 2021 to be fair, where she earned a World Championship bronze medal in only her second 70.3 race start, as well as that impressive display at the Collins Cup. Oh, and an Olympic Games silver medal was pretty good too.   Still a youngster in triathlon terms, how will a bit more planning before that first race (and the new bike) impact her performance in 2022?   Just as with the men, we have the defending champion racing here in the shape of Canadian star Paula Findlay. She was in a class of her own on the bike in October, and reflecting back on that hugely impressive PTO 2020 Championship victory in December 2020, she is strong across all three disciplines. At her best, that makes her tough for anyone to beat.   Holly Lawrence (2017) and Heather Jackson (2015 and 2013) add to the previous winners set to race on Saturday, and both have multiple World Championship podium finishes on their records, Lawrence of course taking the IRONMAN 70.3 title in 2016.   Australia's Ashleigh Gentle made seemingly light work of CLASH Miami recently as everyone around her was melting in the baking Florida heat, while Skye Moench was an impressive sixth at the 70.3 World Championship and Jackie Hering was just one place behind her in Utah. They will all add further quality to what should be a fantastic race.   That's far from a complete list of podium contenders either – don't miss it.   You can find the full Pro start list here.   Prize Money: What's on the line? The prize purse on offer this weekend is $50,000 – with each of the winners collecting a $7,500 share of that total   In addition to money, there will be a total of six qualifying slots (three MPRO / three FPRO) for the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in St George in late October 2022.   The total funds will be paid eight-deep, as follows:   $7,500 $5,000 $3,750 $3,000 $2,000 $1,500 $1,250 $1,000   IRONMAN 70.3 Texas in Galveston - Beachside Best Race with us at Memorial Hermann IRONMAN 70.3 Texas and experience the best of both worlds, blending together a PR chasers dream course with a beachside bliss atmosphere. Athletes kick off their day with a protected, saltwater swim in the Bay at Moody Gardens, transition to a flat and fast bike course along the Texas Gulf Coast, and cap it off with a spectator-filled run. As athletes race, friends and family can experience the famous local beaches, iconic Moody Gardens, and Pleasure Pier. Beaches, boardwalks, and your personal best await you at Memorial Hermann IRONMAN 70.3 Texas.​     What's New in the 303:   There Is Very Little Information Out There For Athletes With Migraine By Jessica McWhirt   I've been researching for the past several weeks to find information for athletes with Migraine. But not only Migraine, athletes with fatigue and dizziness, and how to train and race while living with a chronic illness or disease.   There are plenty of lists of famous athletes and Olympians who have migraine: Amanda Beard, Steve Kerr, Ian Thorpe, Dwyane Wade. But these articles rarely go into the details of how these athletes manage the sometimes debilitating effects of Migraine. We just know that they have. It's not helpful. The Cleveland Clinic says, “an exertional headache occurs when an activity causes veins and arteries to expand to allow more blood flow. That expansion and increased blood pressure create pressure in the skull, which causes the pain.”   Without further ado, here are some recommendations by sites, my commentary on it, and some things I do in a vain attempt to reduce the severity of the exercise-induced headaches I get after hard efforts, long efforts, or races   WHAT MIGRAINE CANADA SUGGESTS When I actually found an article with tips for athletes with Migraine, I've either been doing the suggestion already, I won't do it, or it isn't even applicable. Migraine Canada suggests the following:   Stick to a schedule Eat and sleep at regular times Exercise regularly Eat a healthy diet Find factors that are triggering the Migraine (light sensitivity = wear sunglasses; noise sensitivity = wear earplugs) What I do While these all make sense for even someone who doesn't have Migraine, what happens if you already have a daily headache and strenuous exercise makes it worse? Because I do. What if exercise, is in fact, the trigger? Because it is for me. And when you are sticking to a schedule, eating regularly and healthily, and getting enough sleep, then what? Yes, I do these things.   I regularly go to bed around 9:00 PM and wake up around 5:30 AM. Lately, I've been trying to eat 6 small meals every 2-3 hours throughout the day.

Zum 14. Mal haben sich Andi Dreitz und ich am vergangenen Wochenende bei der Zielverpflegung der PTO Championship in Daytona getroffen. Nachdem wir viel zu kurz ein Teil unserer Vergangenheit aufgearbeitet haben, unterhalten wir uns über den Jahreshöhepunkt im Triathlon und welche Chancen und Probleme das Format hat. Zumdem versuchen wir das Konstrukt PTO zu beschreiben und Andi beantwortet mir einige jugendlich naive Nachfragen, da er schon länger involviert ist.

So viel Liebe und Hass in einer Podcast-Folge zugleich: Freude und Leidenschaft in den Momenten, als Publisher Frank Wechsel, Chefredakteur Nils Flieshardt und Redakteur Marvin Weber wieder Gänsehaut bekommen, wenn sie den Ironman Florida und die die bewegende Geschichte rund um Chris Nikic Revue passieren lassen. Hass gibt es für die eine oder andere Trainingseinheit, die nur ungern absolviert wird und jedoch trotzdem in jedem Plan stehen muss. Eine Achterbahnfahrt der Gefühle in etwas mehr als 60 Minuten.

Ein deutscher Profi steht am Samstag an der Startlinie des Ironman Florida. Andreas Dreitz startet in Panama City Beach seine US-Tournee, die ihn danach über den Ironman 70.3 Texas zur PTO-Weltmeisterschaft nach Daytona führen soll. Ein Gespräch über eine außergewöhnliche Triathlonsaison, Everestings und Badeseen, Planungen und Reisen in Corona-Zeiten und Ziele für die kommenden Rennen.

We have a really exciting episode here on the Challenge Roth Road to Roth Podcast Series which includes a great interview with the 2019 Challenge Roth winner, German Pro Triathlete, Andreas Dreitz. So for the first time listeners, a bit of a backstory here with the Road to Roth Series – at the beginning of August I announced that I’ll be doing my first full distance triathlon at Challenge Roth in 2020, and since then, I found that a lot of listeners were actually on a similar path; whether it was with Roth or another race; but they too were on their crazy journey to their first full distance triathlon and looking forward to hearing content specific to the full distance! Of course, never having actually done the distance before, I figured everyone could benefit the most in a series where I interview top professional triathletes and coaches that will be able to provide a ton of training tips specific to the full distance as well as give us the motivation and insight we need to help us maximize our performances come race day! I am SUPER Pumped to be having this conversation today with Andi because his 2019 performance was a huge inspiration for me and who better to get us psyched up about Roth then the fan favourite and reigning champion himself! Other themes we will explore in todays conversation is the recent announcement of the Professional Triathlon Organization, KONA, Erdinger Alkoholfrei and Club LaSanta in Lanzarote. Of course, as always we never finish an episode without a few training takeaways and motivational messages from one of the top triathletes in the world!

Der Gewinner von Challenge Roth 2019 Nach seinem Sieg bei der Challenge Roth hat sich Triathlet Andreas Dreitz einen Traum erfüllt. Der Oberfranke spricht über sein Pokerface beim Wettkampf, wie er sich über Tiefen rettet und was er Anfänger*innen rät.

Heute hat Garmin seinen neuen Forerunner 945 vorgestellt – wir durften ihn schon einige Tage ausführlich testen. Simon Müllers damit aufgezeichnete Herzfrequenzkurve vor den Rennmonitoren am vergangenen Wochenende bleibt unser Geheimnis, doch in dieser Episode spricht er mit Frank Wechsel ausführlich über die neueste Version der beliebtesten Triathlonuhr. Dazu: Der neue Nike-Wunderschuh, der deutsche Doppel- und Daniela Ryfs Arbeitssieg in Marbella und Texas, das WTS-Rennen auf den Bermudas und die Marathon-Ereignisse vom Wochenende.

Der Ironman Südafrika hielt, was er versprochen hatte - und einige Deutsche hielten mit. Wir analysieren das erste richtig große Saisonhighlight und die Aussichten für den Ironman Hawaii in genau einem halben Jahr. Apropos Analyse: Keiner nimmt dieses Thema so genau wie die Norweger. Simon Müller hat sie in der Höhe besucht. Mit Frank Wechsel spricht er zudem darüber, ob man als Rookie auf der Langdistanz unter acht Stunden finishen kann, wie die Halbmarathonauftritte von Patrick Lange und Javier Gomez einzuordnen sind und was sonst noch so in der Triathlonwelt geschehen ist.

Peinliche Pressekonferenz und erwartete Niederlage - Florian Rußler und Peter Schulze-Zachau sprechen in der neuesten Folge der Sitzplatz-Ultras über die Pressekonferenz von Bayern München sowie über das Club-Spiel gegen Hoffenheim. Außerdem ist Andreas Dreitz zu Gast im Studio und berichtet über seine Teilnahme beim Ironman auf Hawaii.

2017 gewann Andreas Dreitz sein Ironman-Debüt in Italien prompt mit einer Zeit von 8:03 Stunden. Nun steht für den dreifachen Sieger des Ironman 70.3 Mallorca seine zweite Langdistanz bei der Challenge Roth an. Wir haben mit dem "Überbiker" bei triathlon talk über seine Entwicklung, Ziele, seinen ersten Hawaii-Start und vieles mehr gesprochen.
