Loughlin Campion is an Irish endurance athlete who crossed the finish line of the 2025 IRONMAN World Championship in Nice as the fastest Irish athlete, and whilst that deserves much respect and admiration, his journey to the race start line is truly an inspirational one of resilience, grit and the relentless pursuit of possibility.  A lifelong runner, inspired by his father's love of athletics, Loughlin's path to sporting success was abruptly interrupted a number of years ago when he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis; a chronic illness that brought daily struggles, physical setbacks and mental health challenges. For a time, his future in sport seemed uncertain as he grappled with fatigue, stress and the impact of a condition that literally turned life upside down.With the support of family and friends, when Loughlin finally found his way to remission he began rebuilding his life around new sporting challenges. Triathlon became his focus, providing an opportunity not only to reignite his passion for running, but to push himself further than he ever imagined. His return to competitive sport has been remarkable. He completed IRONMAN Italy last year in 8:54, finishing in the top 20 on debut at the distance, earning his slot for the 2025 IRONMAN World Championship in Nice. Whilst race day in Nice tested every ounce of his preparation and resolve, from the technical bike course to nutrition strategies and mishaps, Loughlin embraced and surmounted each challenge, ultimately crossing the finish line in a superb time of 9:34:44. The performance cemented his status as the fastest Irishman at the IRONMAN World Championship, a milestone that spoke not only to his athletic ability but to his perseverance in the face of adversity. His story shines a light on the challenges of living with chronic illness, the importance of support networks, and the power of determination in rewriting what is possible. As he looks toward new goals, whether improving his run speed or preparing for future IRONMAN races, Loughlin's story reminds us that every setback is a setup for a comeback, and that every finish line, no matter how big or small the occasion, deserves to be celebrated.

In this episode of The Brick Session, Mark and Caroline dive into a packed weekend of racing news, starting with the Ironman World Championships in Nice. With the legendary Kona course giving way to the French Riviera this year, the event sparked considerable debate. Mark and Caroline unpack the brutal bike course that left its mark on the field, reflected in a notably high DNF rate. They question whether Nice was given a fair chance to prove itself as a long-term alternative to Kona, or if the tradition of Hawaii will always overshadow any new host.The conversation naturally turns to the race dynamics, where the Norwegians once again proved their dominance, sweeping the podium with a remarkable top-three finish. Mark and Caroline explore what makes their approach so consistently successful, and what this says about the future of long-distance triathlon.Closer to home, Caroline shares her personal experience at the British Gravel Championships held in Dalby Forest, North Yorkshire. In a race that attracted some of the UK's best off-road talent, she put in a gritty performance to take 8th place overall — a standout achievement at 46 years old. Together, they reflect on the growth of gravel racing in the UK, the technical demands of the Dalby course, and what draws so many athletes to the discipline.It's an episode that balances the global stage of triathlon with the personal stories of racing at home — packed with insight, opinion, and the usual dose of Brick Session honesty.

In the second episode from race week in Nice, host Matt Lieto connects with another trio of top contenders for the IRONMAN World Championship title: Sam Laidlow, Marten van Riel, and Matthew Matthew MarquardtFirst, defending Nice champion Sam Laidlow reflects on a challenging year that started with a reactivation of the Epstein-Barr virus. He explains how the forced rest shifted his perspective from chasing numbers to focusing on quality, health, and a more holistic preparation. This new approach led to breakthrough performances on surprisingly low training volume, giving him a newfound "inner peace and confidence" as he looks to defend his title on French soil.Next, Marten van Riel opens up about his turbulent and "panicky" build-up to his first full-distance World Championship, which included a significant ankle injury that limited him to a four-week run block and a minor crash on the course just days before the race. Despite the setbacks, the Belgian Olympian discusses the freedom that comes from lowered expectations and his excitement to race on a course he feels is perfectly suited to his strengths.Finally, American Matthew Marquardt details his season of two halves, from frustrating early-season results to dominant victories at IRONMAN Cairns and Lake Placid. The medical student gives a fascinating deep-dive into the physiological cause of the quad spasms that have affected him in T1 and explains the strategic evolution in his racing—learning to conserve energy on the bike to unleash his now formidable run, which he believes is the key to competing with the best in the world.

What happens when your body changes the rules halfway through your biggest athletic goal? Lucy Hurn found out when perimenopause hit during her 8-year quest to qualify for Kona. In this raw and practical episode, Lucy shares her journey from struggling with fatigue, irregular recovery, and changing physiology to finally earning her spot at the Ironman World Championships. This isn't just about getting faster — it's about adapting, listening to your body, and redefining what success looks like.   Key insights from this conversation: • Listen to your body becomes non-negotiable — especially when hormones make recovery unpredictable • Fuelling enough is harder than you think — why most female athletes under-eat and how it sabotages performance • Your thoughts aren't facts — learning to reframe negativity can transform your training and racing • The guilt factor — why women struggle more with training time and how to navigate family responsibilities   Practical takeaways for training through perimenopause: • Build flexibility into training plans — some days you adapt, some days you skip entirely • Prioritise protein at every meal (minimum 1g per kg bodyweight, building up from there) • Focus on what you can control: sleep hygiene, nutrition quality, stress management • Track your symptoms to understand patterns and communicate effectively with healthcare providers   Resources & Links: • Book recommendation: A Life Without Limits by Chrissie Wellington — Lucy's inspiration for her Kona goal • Research mentioned: Work by Dr. Natalie Brown on training around menstrual cycles and menopause - • Training philosophy: "You don't get fitter from training — you get fitter from recovery from training"   Connect with Lucy Hurn: Lucy is the owner of Feel Fit with Lucy and helps women achieve big race goals while building both fitness and confidence. Her coaching covers training, nutrition, mindset, race planning, and stress management.

As in 2024, Coach Tim was invited back (much to our surprise) by IRONMAN to brief athletes in the course for the IRONMAN World Championships this time in Nice, France, alongside kiwi counterpart Rob Dallimore.  A detailed look at race week and race day, plus some questions from the recorded audience following.  If you're racing, be sure you'll get some handy coaching insights. With the IRONMAN World Championships returning to Kona as a single day from 2026, this will be the last IRONMAN outside the big island for both men and women. Thanks to the team at IRONMAN for the opportunity once again. Ohana. Join the tribe. www.koasports.com.au 

Following the tragic loss of his brother-in-law nine years ago, Luke co-founded the charity Andy's Man Club, a peer-to-peer support movement giving men a safe space to meet and talk. What began in Halifax has since grown into a nationwide network of over 300 clubs across the UK, saving lives and breaking down stigma.  This year Luke set out to complete "Mission Possible" which includes completing all five IRONMAN races in the UK alongside additional running and cycling events to support and raise awareness of Andy's Man Club.  Having already completed three of the five events; IRONMAN 70.3 Bolton, IRONMAN 70.3 Swansea and IRONMAN Leeds, Luke was invited to race at the Men's IRONMAN World Championship in Nice next month as an athlete ambassador and will swap out IRONMAN 70.3 Weymouth to race in Nice before heading back to the UK to tackle IRONMAN Wales one week later. Unphased by the challenges that lie ahead, mission possible has already made a significant impact within and beyond his immediate circle and community.  Throughout this insightful conversation, Luke reflects on the strong parallels between sport, mental health and resilience, the support of family and community and the power of open conversations.  His athletic achievements and success to date with Mission Possible are certainly inspiring, but it's his commitment to creating lasting change through Andy's Man Club and beyond that truly sets him apart. From building communities to conquering IRONMAN races, Luke's journey shows that with purpose, resilience, self-belief and passion, anything is possible. 

Why Mindset Matters in Endurance Sports & How a Coach Can Help Navigate the Minefield - Episode 1 - What Is Mindset? In this podcast series, QT2 Owner and Head Coach Tim Snow shares his views, informed by more than twenty years of racing and coaching endurance sports, on how an athlete's mindset can have a profound impact on performance. In Episode 1, Coach Tim sets the framework for the rest of the series, defining Mindset as the lens through which we we see the world. How we see a situation defines how we approach a solution to the problem, or even if we can see a solution. But yet, Mindset is often ignored. In the following Episodes, Coach Tim will take a deep dive into Mindset Strategies an athlete can use to identify "potholes" and come up with solutions to enable an enhanced performance on race day. Five Strategies to Alter Mindset *Setting and Managing Appropriate Expectations *Recognizing Controllables and Uncontrollables *True Goal Setting *Maintaining a Larger View/Managing a Disappointing Result *Coping Visualization Learn more about QT2 Systems at www.qt2systems.com

How many times have we heard that weight loss and maintenance is simply “calories in, calories out?” Well, the equation may be rooted in thermodynamics, but the reality is biology, history, hormones, and a whole lot more. This week, endocrinologist and Harvard obesity researcher Dr. Jody Dushay breaks down why this concept is far more complex than the numbers on a food label or how many calories our devices tell us we've burned. From how your body actually absorbs calories to how (or not) it expends them, we explore how and why weight gain and loss anything but straightforward—especially during menopause, when shifting body composition, gut microbiome changes, altered insulin responses, and evolving hormone levels, create a whole new metabolic landscape. As you'll see, your body isn't a calculator—it's a dynamic, adapting system. We also revisit GLP-1 drugs, which are increasingly popular with midlife women, and where they fit in this whole equation (so to speak). Jody Dushay, MD, MMSc, is an endocrinologist at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. She is also the founder and director of Well Powered, a comprehensive wellness and weight management program. Dr Dushay has studied the effect of pharmacotherapies and dietary interventions on body weight for years, including a large single-site study examining the effects of a glucagon-like peptide receptor agonist on body weight in obese women without diabetes. As a triathlete, she has qualified for Kona 3 times and came in 2nd in her age group at the 2020 Ironman World Championship in St George.

When things start to feel “off” in midlife, it's easy to blame perimenopause. It's easy to accept the advice to slow down—or to internalize the idea that age automatically means decline. But this week's guest, Jen Temperley, isn't buying it. A lifelong triathlete, Jen has faced her share of challenges: unexplained fatigue, weight gain, gut issues, injuries, and symptoms that looked like menopause—but weren't. Through it all, she leaned into curiosity, self-advocacy, and a relentless drive to understand her body on a deeper level. The result? She raced the Ironman World Championship faster at 50 than she did at 40—and continues to thrive in the sport she loves. This week Jen shares the pivotal moments that changed her trajectory, the hard reset she made on fueling, rest, and stress, and what it really takes to rebuild your health—and your power—in midlife.Jen Temperley is a strength, nutrition, and endurance coach with over 25 years of experience working with active women and athletes. A lifelong athlete and competitive triathlete, Jen is currently ranked in the top 2% of her age group, and a 10-time Ironman 70.3 World Championship qualifier. She specializes in coaching women 40+ through the key lifestyle factors that impact performance and well-being; including strength training, fueling, recovery, and the physiological changes that come with the menopause transition.

Chelsea Sodaro broke into the mainstream when she won the Ironman World Championship in 2022, but it's fair to say her accomplishments outside of that race have been just as impressive. She has created space for conversations around mental health in sports, parenting, and so much more. Her approach is best summed up by the mantra she has written on her bike: "YES YES YES". Chelsea continues to inspire by creating a new event called Unlocking Yes, and in this podcast, we dive deep into the details of her inaugural event.
