This week we start with Hayden Wilde making headlines for racing in prohibited shoes before shifting our attention to the main event, the Ironman World Championships in Nice. Lizzie Rayner joins us to break down the men's race, the form of the favourites and the likely tactics that will shape the day. We dive into the chances of Sam Laidlow, Gustav Iden and Kristian Blummenfelt, and what it will take to win on the demanding Nice course this year. We finish with Tim's picks for the podium.   To support the podcast please head to: patreon.com/talkingtriathlon Use "TALKINGTRIATHLON" at the www.therunningalgorithm.com 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 You can follow Lizzie at https://www.instagram.com/lizzierayner97 

Ela aprendeu a nadar ainda bebê e, dos nove aos dezenove anos, dedicou-se à natação competitiva, passando também pelo polo aquático, experiências que construíram a base que sustentaria sua trajetória. Ao mesmo tempo, cultivava uma curiosidade quase enciclopédica pelos esportes em geral, acompanhando resultados e estatísticas. Enquanto avançava nos estudos de Engenharia Civil, o ritmo intenso entre faculdade e trabalho em uma construtora a afastou momentaneamente das piscinas. Um episódio de estresse, porém, a levou de volta à atividade física, primeiro pela corrida e em seguida pelo ciclismo. Pouco tempo mais tarde, já disputava um triathlon sprint. O passo seguinte foi natural: em 2005 estreou no triathlon e, em 2006, brilhou ao conquistar o título mundial amador do Ironman 70.3 em sua faixa etária, resultado que despertou nela a vontade antiga de se tornar atleta profissional. Super dedicada, sua progressão foi consistente e rápida. Tornou-se tricampeã brasileira de longa distância, conquistou um top 10 no Mundial de Longa Distância de 2008 e a 5ª colocação no Ironman Brasil 2009. Ainda foi eleita atleta revelação e melhor triatleta de longa distância do país. Sua carreira, no entanto, sofreu uma reviravolta quando um grave acidente de bicicleta a afastou das competições por meses. Entre a reabilitação e a reconstrução, encontrou espaço para uma nova vertente: a comunicação. Atuou como colunista esportiva, comentarista, repórter e produtora de triathlon. O retorno às competições trouxe novas conquistas, mas também abriu portas para o empreendedorismo. Em um período em que se afastou do esporte, desta vez para realizar duas cirurgias, cofundou uma agência de marketing esportivo que desenvolveu projetos inovadores, entre eles a famosa Casa do Brasil em Kona. Nos últimos anos, ampliou ainda mais sua participação no ciclismo, em provas de estrada e de gravel, acumulando pódios em diversos eventos, ao mesmo tempo em que deu os primeiros passos como comentarista de ciclismo na ESPN e passou a integrar a equipe do podcast Gregário Cycling. Projetos autorais em redes sociais, como resumos de provas e coberturas dos Jogos Olímpicos de Tóquio e Paris, ampliaram seu alcance e deram uma nova voz ao esporte olímpico brasileiro. Conosco de volta, a engenheira com MBA internacional em Gerenciamento de Projetos, educadora física, ex-triatleta profissional que se tornou ciclista, comunicadora, fundadora da Flows Sports Marketing, podcaster, comentarista e narradora esportiva que se transformou na voz do ciclismo feminino no Brasil, a goianense Ana Lídia dos Santos Borba.

In this third installment from race week in Nice, host Matt Lieto catches up with three of the most powerful cyclists in the sport: Magnus Ditlev, Léon Chevalier, and Kristian Høgenhaug.First up is Magnus Ditlev, who has finished on the podium at the last two World Championships. The Danish powerhouse details his extensive preparation for the technical Nice course, revealing he's spent significant time practicing the descents and is now faster and more relaxed than two years ago. He offers a fascinating tactical breakdown of the bike course, identifying the middle plateau—after the main climb—as the critical section where he plans to make his move, and explains his strategic decision to race at a slightly heavier weight to improve his durability.Next, Léon Chevalier discusses his steady progression, having placed 5th in Nice in 2022 and 4th in Kona last year. He reflects on a demanding season chasing the IRONMAN Pro Series, which has left him feeling fatigued but has also taught him a valuable lesson about his own resilience, having consistently achieved top results while racing at what he considers 75% fitness. With a refreshingly honest perspective, Chevalier aims to be patient and fight for another top-10 finish.Finally, Kristian Høgenhaug shares the joyful news of becoming a new father just weeks before the race. He opens up about how fatherhood has given him a "newfound purpose" and hopes the famous "dad watts" will kick in on Sunday. After two previous DNFs in Nice, he's looking to create positive new memories on the course. He also discusses the tactical layers the Pro Series adds to the race, as he'll be keeping a close eye on his main rivals for the overall standings.

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.

In this episode from race week in Nice, France, host Matt Lieto sits down with three of the biggest names in triathlon ahead of the IRONMAN World Championship: Daniel Bækkegård, Kristian Blummenfelt, and Gustav Iden.First, Daniel Bækkegård shares his journey through a challenging few years marked by injuries, including two torn discs in his back that led to inconsistent training. He discusses the positive impact of his new coach, Philip Seipp, and Seipp's holistic approach that focuses on the entire ecosystem of an athlete's life. Bækkegård also contrasts the high-pressure "spotlight" of Kona with the more relaxed, "laid back" atmosphere of Nice, where the city itself helps athletes stay more centered.Next, Kristian Blummenfelt details his meticulous preparation, having spent months training on the Nice course to familiarize himself with its unique demands5. He breaks down the bike course, describing it as having "a little bit of everything," from steep and long climbs to technical descents where comfort and nutrition are key. Blummenfelt analyzes the race dynamics, anticipating aggressive tactics from competitors like Sam Laidlow, but remains confident in his ability to stay collected, even after a poor swim, and leverage his run.Finally, Gustav Iden opens up about the significant shift in his career since his 2019 victory in Nice. He speaks candidly about the mental struggle of going from a multi-year winning streak to a period of disappointing results, which challenged his identity as a "winner". Now, with renewed confidence fueled by strong training sessions, Iden states he has a "great chance of winning this race" and believes a sub-2:30 marathon is possible on Sunday.

In this episode, host Matt Lieto sits down with Jackie Hering, a seasoned triathlete known for her resilience and balance between professional racing and family life.

The conversation explores the mental and physical challenges of racing, Jackie's strategic adaptability, and her aspirations for the upcoming Kona event.

Jan Frodeno was meant to race UTMB but had not qualified, and the wildcard entry he received has seen him cop a wave of online criticism. We talk through why the reaction came so hard and what it says about the way the trail scene handles elite entries. From there we look at one of the wildest endurance feats of the year, South African runner Sibusiso Kubheka covering 100km in 5:59:20 at the Adidas “Chasing 100” event. It will not go down as an official world record, but breaking the six hour barrier is a landmark moment for ultra running and we discuss why it matters. Supertri Chicago brought more drama, with Jeanne Lehair and Alberto Gonzalez Garcia taking the wins, Tyler Mislawchuk running brilliantly, and Georgia Taylor Brown showing strong form in the women's race. WTCS Fréjus sets up a massive showdown as Alex Yee and Hayden Wilde line up against each other again, while at T100 French Riviera Hayden backs up to race alongside Morgan Pearson, Jelle Geens and Jess Learmonth. We finish the episode with listener questions to celebrate the 100th episode of Talking Triathlon.

Listen to 127 Future Now Show Dolphins In the first hour were lucky to get both Ed Ellsworth and Tamayo Brown as our guests this week, as they prepare to host their Dolphin Yoga Retreat next week on the Big Island of Hawaii. Both are seasoned explorers of dolphin and whale communications and will be offering a 6 day interspecies experience  at the famous Point House in the storied Kealakekua Bay on the Kona coast of the island of Hawaiʻi.  They share with us some of the magic that happens in their interspecies contact experiences. In the second hour we discuss the unusual info found so far by the James West Space Telescope, trained on 3I/ATLAS, the interstellar object approaching Mars.  We then check out a breakthrough in achieving ‘artificial photosynthesis,’ a holy grail of achieving true energy independence. Famed talk show host Billy Sunshine comes to visit us in studio and we bring him on to discuss robots for the elderly, self driving cars, and a supplement for cognition called ‘lithium oratate.’  A lively show, we thinks you’ll enjoy it!

Winner of Ironman Copenhagen 2025 - Finn Grosse-Freese (24) from Rostock has the potential to take on the proud Kona-legacy, build by German Ironman athletes over more than 30 years. Tune in and learn more about Finn and how he won IM Austria and IM Copenhagen this summer on very little training, but a relatively tight racing schedule!

Devadesátá léta minulého století bývají leckdy pejorativně nazývaná „devadesátky“. Souvisí to s velmi zjednodušeným hodnocením, že se mohlo takřka cokoliv. Zásadní změny zasáhly nejen společnost, ale i policii a na scéně se objevily zcela nové metody zločinů. Naopak zůstaly staré vazby směrem do kruhů veksláků či estébáků, kteří se přesunuli do jiných sfér života. Jak pohlížet právě na toto období? Jak to bylo doopravdy přináší tři skutečné příběhy.Všechny díly podcastu Jak to bylo doopravdy můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

We dive into our coffee obsession, leg day struggles, and viral gym pranks before talking about how I/Arend got duped by a fake Back to the Future 4 trailer rumored to star Tom Holland. Along the way, we share Hawaii travel stories including swimming with manta rays in Kona and kick around the idea of recreating classic album covers with ourselves in the spotlight. If you're enjoying the podcast, don't forget to follow, rate, and share it with a friend. It helps us grow and keeps the banter coming. You can also catch extra clips and highlights on our TikTok channel.

This week we set the record straight on T100 Valencia after rumours that it was cancelled. Hayden Wilde is planning to race both the T100 Fréjus and the WTCS on the same weekend, after his comeback could this be one of the best seasons ever? Jan Frodeno's UTMB bid might be on hold as it appears he hasn't followed the qualification process properly. Ironman Kalmar happened over the weekend Chelsea Sodaro finishing  third place and the question of whether she is keeping things safe before Kona. Ironman Copenhagen delivered crazy fast times and a rough day for Joe Skipper after a puncture forced a DNF. Zell Am See 70.3 gets a look as we discuss the start list and how the fields are shaping up ahead of a busy late season. Supertri Chicago closes the show with a stacked cast. Georgia Taylor-Brown, Jeanne Lehair, Ricardo Batista, Johnny Brownlee, Morgan Pearson and Tyler Mislawchuk headline what should be tight, aggressive racing.

Plenty to cover from T100 London, starting with Hayden Wilde's incredible win less than 100 days after a horrific bike crash and Lucy Charles-Barclay's brilliant performance that makes her a clear contender for the Ironman World Championships in Kona this October. We break down both the men's and women's races, with the women's race standing out as one of the best T100 events we have seen. Away from London, Alex Yee smashed a 5km road race, setting up an epic showdown the next time he races Hayden. We then preview Ironman Kalmar, where Chelsea Sodaro and Nikki Bartlett headline the women's race, and Ironman Copenhagen, which sees Joe Skipper going head-to-head with Rasmus Svenningson in what promises to be an exciting battle.

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.

This week, the Unnamed Automotive Podcast jams out with some subcompact crossovers. The show starts with Sami's review of the 2025 Hyundai Kona Electric, a perfectly fine EV that is a bit overshadowed by its market. With the competition offering better value, Sami and Benjamin argue that a used Hyundai Kona Electric is the smart choice for EV shoppers on a tight budget. Then the guys turn their focus to the 2026 Honda HR-V. Using Sami's previous experience as background information on his tester, Benjamin starts off thinking the Honda subcompact is pretty solid, but after spending more time with it, he wonders if there's a worse choice in the segment. Thanks for listening!

We are back with another big week in triathlon. Jan Frodeno is lining up for UTMB and we talk about what that means for his post-triathlon career.

The 2028 WTCS Grand Final has been awarded to New Zealand and we talk about what this means for the sport. There is big news from the PTO with confirmation of a 40 million investment and we discuss how that could shape the future of triathlon.

We're back with a packed week in triathlon. Challenge Roth's release of Race Ranger data gave us plenty to dive into. We break down who spent the most time drafting, where the tech worked (and didn't), and what it might mean for the future of racing. Sam Laidlow returned to long course racing at Ironman Leeds with an incredible win, achieved off just 11 hours of training a week as he continues to bounce back from recent health struggles. Supertri Toronto brought fireworks. Alex Yee made his long-awaited return to triathlon, Georgia Taylor-Brown was back in the mix, and Cassandre Beaugrand looked set for the win until a lap miscount cost her the race. Then it's all eyes on the T100 French Riviera start lists with some serious names confirmed including Marten Van Riel, Jelle Geens, Lucy Charles-Barclay and Jessica Learmonth.

In this episode of Pro Mindset ® Podcast, host Craig Domann sits down with history-making Ironman Athlete and Adaptive Sports Champion Roderick Sewell. Born without tibias in both legs and undergoing a double amputation before the age of 2, Roderick's journey is a masterclass in resilience, grit, and the power of mindset.He shares how his mother Marian and him navigated homelessness while fighting for access to the prosthetics he needed. Her sacrifices and the life-changing support of the Challenged Athletes Foundation gave Roderick the tools—and the hope—to thrive. With the help of dedicated mentors, he learned to swim, ran with prosthetic blades, and eventually joined the U.S. Para-swimming team, earning multiple international medals.In 2019, Roderick made history as the first bilateral above-the-knee amputee to complete the Ironman World Championship in Kona, conquering 140.6 miles of swim, bike, and run across Hawaii's Big Island.Episode Takeaways:

Will shares how Greenhouse is leveraging AI tools like Kona and dynamic learning pathways to create personalized, in-the-flow training at scale while maintaining a strong remote culture. The conversation explores why the future of HR isn't just about technology, it's about using AI to amplify human connection, learning speed, and cultural cohesion in distributed teams.

In this week's episode of America on the Road, Jack Nerad and Chris Teague each test drive fascinating small cars — the 2025 Volvo EX30 and the 2025 Hyundai Kona. Depending upon how you look at it, each one could be considered a big bargain … or a disappointment. We'll tell you our opinions and break down the biggest auto industry news of the week. Let's dive into what's on tap: Road Test 1: 2025 Volvo EX30 Twin Motor Performance Ultra Host Jack Nerad puts the 2025 Volvo EX30 Twin Motor Performance Ultra to the test, a compact electric SUV that delivers sports-car acceleration—0 to 60 in just 3.3 seconds—while wrapped in sleek, minimalist design. Its dual-motor AWD setup generates 422 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, with up to 253 miles of range. Tech takes center stage inside with a single 12.3-inch touchscreen that controls everything—no gauge cluster or physical buttons in sight. While fast and feature-rich, Jack notes the interface can feel unintuitive, and the lack of tactile controls may frustrate some drivers. Sustainable materials, 5G connectivity, Google Built-in, and standard driver-assist features give it a modern edge. However, with final assembly and sourcing in China, the EX30 won't qualify for U.S. EV tax credits. It's a compelling, tech-forward EV for early adopters, but traditionalists may find it too digitally driven for daily use. Road Test 2: 2025 Hyundai Kona Chris Teague reviews the redesigned 2025 Hyundai Kona, now larger, smarter, and more refined than ever. The new model rides on an updated platform that improves ride quality, interior space, and driving dynamics. Its bold exterior features futuristic light bars and sharper lines, while the interior offers dual 12.3-inch displays, upgraded materials, and improved tech across trims. Powertrain options include a 2.0L base engine and a punchier 1.6-liter turbo, both delivering solid fuel economy. Chris highlights the Kona's strong value, easy drivability, and appeal to urban drivers and small families. Wireless smartphone connectivity and over-the-air update capability enhance its appeal. Downsides include some budget interior materials and AWD availability limited to certain trims. Overall, the 2025 Kona blends style, practicality, and features in a way that makes it one of the top choices in the subcompact SUV segment. Guest Interview: Jonny Grunwald, Pennzoil Spokesperson & Custom Car Builder This week's guest is Jonny Grunwald, a Pennzoil ambassador and respected automotive builder with a deep love for performance tuning and wrenching on machines. Jack and Chris talk with him about his path in the industry, his latest projects, and what he sees ahead for car enthusiasts and garage tinkerers alike. Industry News Roundup: Tesla Turmoil: Executives Exit Amid Falling Sales Tesla is in disarray as a string of high-profile executives has exited, including North American sales chief Troy Jones and key figures close to Elon Musk. With deliveries dropping and Musk's political foray stirring backlash, the company's direction—and stability—are being questioned. Stellantis Abandons Hydrogen Bet Stellantis is walking away from Symbio, its hydrogen fuel cell venture, just two years after buying in. Despite hydrogen's long-haul benefits, Stellantis is redirecting funds toward battery-electric vehicles, leaving Symbio's future in limbo. GM Flips Orion Plant from EVs to Gas Trucks In a surprising pivot, GM will convert its Orion Assembly plant from EV production to building gas-powered pickups like the Escalade, Silverado, and Sierra by 2027. Citing sluggish EV demand, the automaker is leaning back into its internal-combustion cash cows while maintaining battery module production on-site. Made in America Tour Update Jack shares the latest from the “Made in America” tour, highlighting domestic manufacturing, American-made vehicles, and other American-made items, including rock'n'roll, baseball, and football.

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

In this episode of Find Your Finish Line, I sit down with the remarkable Melanie McQuaid, three-time XTERRA World Champion and the oldest professional to qualify for Kona at age 50. Melanie's story is nothing short of inspiring. From her beginnings as a professional cyclist navigating a tough and, at times, toxic environment, to becoming a dominant force in triathlon, Melanie has consistently broken barriers and redefined what's possible.   We talk about the highs and lows of her athletic journey, how she transitioned into triathlon, and the deep sense of community she found along the way. Melanie shares powerful insights into her coaching philosophy at MelRad Coaching and how she helps athletes of all ages train smarter, race better, and believe in themselves more deeply. She even clocked her fastest IRONMAN marathon at age 50, proving that age really is just a number.   If you're an age-group athlete looking for motivation or just someone who loves a good comeback story, this conversation will fire you up. Melanie's wisdom, grit, and love for the sport shine through every word.   Learn more at: melrad.com

Having spent nearly two decades working with athletes, he reveals the powerful benefits of heat training, from enhancing blood volume to improving oxygen capacity.
