WTCS Abu Dhabi, originally postponed from March due to unrest in the Middle East, has a new date of November 13-14 and will now also offer Olympic qualification points. And Ironman 70.3 Versailles, cancelled due to the heatwave back in July, has been rescheduled for October 11 at the Château de Versailles. After the break we recap Ironman Lake Placid, where Marten Van Riel converted his 70.3 form into a dominant full-distance win, setting a new course record on debut at the distance. Paula Findlay made an equally impressive full Ironman debut, winning the women's race on her first attempt. We then preview WTCS London, where Alex Yee races in front of a home crowd and we ask whether the women's start list, featuring Beaugrand, Beth Potter, Georgia Taylor-Brown and Lisa Tertsch, is the best we've seen all year. We close with a look at the Canadian racing weekend, where Tyler Mislawchuk came within 0.01 seconds of winning the Edmonton World Cup, losing in a sprint to GB's Solomon Okrafo-Smart, and a quick mention of Taylor Knibb maybe being the most versatile athlete in the sport.

Zwei Langdistanzen innerhalb von 14 Tagen – und am Ende das Ticket für den Ironman Hawaii: Frederic Funk hat sich beim Ironman Lake Placid erstmals für Kona qualifiziert. Im Gespräch erzählt er, warum der Start weniger spontan war als gedacht, wie er das Rennen bewusst kontrolliert anging und weshalb der Marathon ihn für seine weitere Entwicklung auf der Langdistanz besonders optimistisch stimmt. Außerdem spricht er darüber, warum aus seinem Vorsatz, der Hawaii-Qualifikation nicht hinterherzujagen, doch eine kleine Jagd wurde – und was sein erster Start auf der Insel für ihn persönlich bedeutet.

Paula Findlay wins Ironman Lake Placid on her very first full distance triathlon attempt. Setting the bike course record, ringing the first-timer's bell, and crossing the tape after one of the most composed performances of the year. Nick and Eric were both on course for the day, and this week all three of us sit down to relive every moment: the cold non-wetsuit swim chasing Chelsea Sodaro, the wind-whipped bike ride where Paula refused to let the gusts derail nine months of preparation, the broken flask on the run, running a 1:24 half marathon split before her quads staged a full revolt, talking herself through lonely miles of River Road, and what it actually felt like to turn into the Olympic oval.This week we discussed:Paula's full Ironman Lake Placid race recap: swim, bike, run, and every mental moment in betweenRacing without a wetsuit in cold windy weather — staying warm, not panicking off the bike, and why the cold nearly derailed the first 45 minutesRiding through 28mph gusts: how Paula stayed in her aerobars when everything in her said sit upThe Marta Sanchez dynamic: running together through the first half, trusting her experience, and slowly stretching the gapQuad cramping from mile 13 of the marathon and choosing to keep running anywayRinging the first-timer's bellThe med tent, the wheelchair, and what "empty" actually feels like after an IronmanHow Eric and Nick tracked splits all day: whiteboard shorthand, the Iron Man app, texts from people on course, and educated guessesWhat Paula discovered about herself: long activities are a mindset, not a personality typeThe timing chip chafe solution that actually worked (and the neck chafe that still didn't)TTL team finished 4th in the team competition — in their first year150 people at the Lake Placid donut run and the volunteer team who drove 45 minutes for donutsIs it better to race a new distance naive, or knowing what's coming?

IRONMAN Lake Placid delivers one of the best Ironman performances we've seen — Martin Van Riel's near wire-to-wire domination and Paula Findlay's debut IRONMAN — as we break down the men's and women's races and who's punched their Kona ticket. We hand out mid-season report cards on the sport's biggest names (surprises, letdowns, and business side how the race organizers are stacking up), then drop some race predictions for this weekend, and close it out with Hot Takes.

Ironman in 2026 is WILD. Marten Van Riel sends a warning To Kristian, Gustav & Casper. Marquardt is a threat. Trevor Foley was on the podium before it all came crashing down. Paula Findlay puts on a masterclass ahead of a strong field, now onto the real test - Kona! And Chelsea Sodaro's 4 hour marathon has us all questioning whether she still has what it takes.

Was war da schon wieder alles los! Nicht nur WM Finale im Fußball sondern auch jede Menge Triathlon Sport. Ironman Lake Placid, Welt- und Europacups und natürlich auch die 1. Triathlon Bundesliga.

Was ist eigentlich aus Project No Time geworden? Nach der Challenge Roth ziehen Nick und Nils eine ehrliche Bilanz: Aus lockerem Training ohne Zeitdruck wurde in den letzten Wochen doch wieder ein Alltag, der sich um Einheiten, Heat-Training, Ernährung und Regeneration drehte. Die große Frage: Kann eine Langdistanz überhaupt ein Hobby bleiben – oder übernimmt sie zwangsläufig das ganze Leben?Außerdem sprechen die beiden über Perfektionismus und Trainings-Gamification, die Balance zwischen Sport, Familie und Beruf sowie den berüchtigten Ironman Blues nach dem großen Rennen. Warum weniger Training nicht automatisch Formverlust bedeutet, weshalb neue Ziele und lockere Bewegung helfen können – und warum eine Halbdistanz manchmal einfach die bessere Idee ist. Zum Abschluss gibt's die Race-Prediction für den Ironman Lake Placid und die Frage, wie realistisch Freds nächster Schritt in Richtung Kona ist. Werbung: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PUSHING LIMITS CLUB⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deine All-in-One Trainingsapp für Triathlon, Radfahren und mehr!

A first triathlon. A breakup. A lifelong love story with endurance sports that nobody saw coming. Before triathlon became one of the biggest endurance sports in the world, Leslie Knibb was standing on a start line in Chicago in 1990 just trying something new. She ended up finishing near the top of the race, beating the boyfriend who introduced her to the sport, and unknowingly starting a triathlon journey that would stretch across more than three decades. In this special Mother's Day episode of Tri Beginner's Luck, Leslie reflects on the many versions of herself she has been through in triathlon: beginner, competitor, mother, coach, mentor, Ironman finisher and community builder. From racing through the Northeast triathlon scene to stepping away during motherhood and later returning to complete Ironman Lake Placid, Leslie shares what it looks like to evolve with the sport instead of walking away from it. The conversation also explores the heart of triathlon culture and why so many people stay connected to it for life. Leslie opens up about coaching beginners, helping grow youth participation through USA Triathlon, supporting first-time athletes with the DC Tri Club, and watching her daughter Taylor Knibb rise to the highest levels of the sport. Whether you are a triathlon beginner, training for your first sprint, or chasing your next Ironman 70.3, this episode is a reminder that the beginner mindset never leaves us. Sometimes the biggest win is simply staying connected to what lights you up.   Join the Tri Beginner's Luck Community: Enjoyed this episode?

Norway's Solveig Løvseth made an immediate impact on long-distance racing in 2025, setting the fastest time ever recorded for a female professional on debut at IRONMAN Hamburg, where she finished third in an impressive 8:12:28.  She then went on to take her first IRONMAN win in only her second appearance at the distance, breaking the tape and the course record at IRONMAN Lake Placid. With her sights firmly set on the sport's most iconic race, Solveig arrived in Kona in October and raced with remarkable grace and composure amidst the heat, humidity and pressure she endured.  From the early miles to the final stretch down Aliʻi Drive, she delivered a masterclass in execution, breaking the tape on triathlon's biggest stage to be crowned the 2025 IRONMAN World Champion. In this episode, Solveig takes us through her extraordinary season as we unpack what it truly takes to get to and perform at the highest level of the sport.  Beyond the results, this conversation explores the person behind the athlete. The 2024 Olympian opens up about her early years in sport and the transition from swimming to triathlon, the lessons learned from short-course racing and the patience required to move successfully into middle and long distance events. She also reflects on the loss of her father and how that experience reshaped her perspective on sport, resilience and life, bringing deeper meaning to every opportunity she has to race. Solveig Løvseth's story shows us that the path to greatness is rarely straightforward. Defined not by obstacles, but by determination, resilience and self-belief, her journey is thoughtful, humble and refreshingly honest, centred on patience, perspective, passion and the importance of carving your own path to success.

In this episode of the IRONMAN Insider, host Matt Lieto is joined by two top contenders for the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona: Taylor Knibb and Lisa Perterer.First, Taylor Knibb offers a candid look into her race week mindset, emphasizing her need for quiet and solitude to conserve her high energy for race day. She reveals her love for reading as a key distraction, sharing that her current non-fiction pick is Mastery. Taylor reflects on the “naivety” that helped her in her first Kona race and discusses how a humbling experience at IRONMAN Texas has given her a “healthy dose of fear and respect” for the distance. While she remains focused on her own process, she shares a key tactical insight learned from Daniela Ryf's 2018 course record: the race can be won on the challenging return from Hawi.Next, first-time Kona competitor Lisa Perterer shares her excitement about finally experiencing the legendary race atmosphere. The Austrian powerhouse, who thrives in hot and humid conditions, is hoping for a challenging day. Lisa reflects on a tough past year and how she has rediscovered the joy in racing, an attitude that was on full display when she received a penalty at IRONMAN Lake Placid but continued to smile and wave to the crowd. While she still has goals of a top-five or even a podium finish, her primary focus is on having a “solid day” to defend her third-place position in the IRONMAN Pro Series standings.

In this week's insights-focused episode, we're deep diving on a bunch of topics including: thoughts on minimum effective dose of training for marathon, triathlons of all distances, and ultras; how holding on too tightly to expectations can lead to disappointment; how fueling, mindset, pacing, and heat all interact to make or break race day; three types of movement (exercise, training, and adventuring) and how they serve different purposes in our lives; additional Ironman Lake Placid takeaways from Jim's athletes; the intersection between “heat bonking” and metabolic bonking; and more pregnancy updates from Katie.

While Ironman Lake Placid unfolds with fervor, I'm here to share the pulse of the race from afar, offering my insights and guidance to friends and athletes navigating the final stretch of the season. With August on the horizon, we're gearing up for everything from half Ironmans to iconic gravel races like Leadville and Steamboat, keeping the spirit of camaraderie and strategy-sharing alive. As summer becomes the "Bermuda Triangle" of racing—where heat, rest, and life's commitments converge—it's crucial to adapt and thrive. Allow me to guide you through this dynamic period, offering strategies to balance your training and optimize your race plans. Whether you're a seasoned racer or new to the scene, I'll share unconventional approaches to building fitness and staying on course. So, pull up a chair, and let's explore how to maneuver through the summer racing season with flexibility, strategy, and a touch of innovation. Trust me, the journey is just as rewarding as the finish line.

This week we try to unpack the developing World Triathlon corruption story and why, sadly, it doesn't come as much of a surprise. We look at what's been reported so far, how the sport's leadership ended up here, and what it could mean going forward. We also react to the retirement announcement from Anne Haug and reflect on the incredible career of one of triathlon's most consistent performers. In race news, we look ahead to T100 London with some big names on the start list including Georgia Taylor-Brown and possibly Hayden Wilde if he's recovered from injury. Then it's over to Ironman Lake Placid where Matthew Marquardt and Solveig Løvseth claimed dominant wins, and we wrap up with what's coming next for Supertri as their 2025 season kicks off.   To support the podcast please head to: patreon.com/talkingtriathlon To watch this podcast as a video visit: https://bit.ly/3vzSss2  Or check us out on Social Media:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkingtriathlon You can follow James at https://www.instagram.com/bale.james85 You can follow Tim at https://www.instagram.com/tford14

While balancing his studies as a medical student at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, Marquardt finished fourth in the 2024 IRONMAN Pro Series with three podium finishes at IRONMAN Texas, IRONMAN 70.3 Mont Tremblant, and IRONMAN Lake Placid. He is driven not only to be one of the best triathletes in the world but also to make a positive impact by increasing cancer awareness and supporting research that integrates his experiences in triathlon and the medical field.

“  I never lost my ability to breathe. I never lost completely my ability to swallow. We had to adjust things for a little while. But I am a huge believer that being as fit at that moment as I was going to be all year—I needed that to get through what I got through and to be able to get up and moving again so quickly.”   Lynn Rogers had completed one IRONMAN triathlon and was training for another when her hands started to go numb. Next, it was her feet and her tongue. In the end, she'd be paralyzed from the chest down—the consequence of a progressive, chronic autoimmune disease called chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP).    Lynn entered rehab at the very hospital where she was working as a brain scientist, and though she regained her ability to walk and eventually to run, that was just the first step along a very long and bumpy road.    Through it all—successful treatments and failed ones, daily symptoms like numb and tingling hands and feet interspersed with more serious flares—she's continued competing. But now, her training is infused with a far greater purpose. She credits the fitness and functionality she had when she got sick for facilitating her recovery, and the joy and community she finds in sport for making each day all the more meaningful.    Lynn is an ambassador for Athletic Brewing, which in 2024 released an incredible documentary called Inches to Miles that chronicles her journey (and that of two other amazing athletes) to IRONMAN Lake Placid. In this episode—and the film—you'll learn the meaning behind Lynn's powerful mantra, “This is what we're doing now” and truly understand how, when it comes to chronic illness, there's always another chapter to the story.   Resources/links: Lynn's website, Instagram Inches to Miles trailer and full movie A Runner's World article Cindy wrote about Lynn in 2018   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 8 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!

In this inspiring episode of "Find Your Finish Line," I sit down with Matt Long, a man whose story of resilience and determination is nothing short of extraordinary. Matt shares his journey from being a competitive IRONMAN athlete to surviving a catastrophic accident with a New York City transit bus in 2005. Despite being given a slim chance of survival, Matt's indomitable spirit saw him not only recover but also return to the IRONMAN Lake Placid finish line in 2009. His story is a testament to the power of setting big goals, embracing adversity, and the unwavering support of family and community. Matt opens up about the mental and physical challenges he faced during his recovery, including moments of deep despair and thoughts of giving up. He credits his comeback to the support from his family, the FDNY brotherhood, and the triathlon community. Matt's journey didn't end at the IRONMAN finish line; he went on to become a motivational speaker, author of the bestseller "The Long Run," and a world record holder in indoor rowing. His message is clear: adversity is a part of life, but it's how we embrace and challenge it that defines our path forward.
