In 2021, Ashton Lambie became the first person in history to ride 4000m in under four minutes. He completed the distance in 3:59.93, surpassing the previous record held by Filippo Ganna, the current time trial world champion. This was Ashton's third time to break the world record, which he had first held in 2018. He went on to win the individual pursuit at the Track World Championships two months later. Given this history, it is perhaps surprising that Ashton grew up racing gravel in Nebraska before discovering his talent for track racing. In this interview, Ashton tells Payson about his history in gravel and decision to break the four minute barrier on the track. He tries to explain the specific pain that a rider experiences at that speed, and the bike setup that allowed him to average 62km per hour (38.5mph). They also talk about his complicated relationship with gravel's competitive trajectory, and why he's decided to race the Grand Prix after spending years on the track. He also talks about his recent move to Houston where his partner is training to become a NASA astronaut.

A competitive racer on the dirt, road and track since the age of 7, Ventura amassed over 70 victories during his professional career, was a member of the U.S. World Team and rode the Track World Championships in Hamar, Norway, placing 5th in the elimination.  In 2000, Robbie started Vision Quest Coaching, a uniquely positioned program for endurance athletes focusing on high quality coaching delivered with the maximum benefits of the latest technology and training methodologies. The success of his athletes has helped VQ grow to five locations and, since opening, has helped thousands of athletes reach their potential in competitive athletic events.

Val and Faith make it to the studio in hot blustery conditions where they are joined by studio guests, Caz Whitehead and Anna Thompson. After sharing our bike moments we move on to the week's news. The Australian women are tearing things up at the Track World Championships in Paris with an impressive list of achievements including Anna Meares' 11th World title. Still on the subject of racing, Melbourne cyclists are racing each other on shared bike/pedestrian paths prompting calls for Strava to not support segments on those paths and us to raise the question; is it time to move on from shared paths? Recently twenty-five women took part in a mass Everesting on Mount Donna Buang, attempting to ride 8848 metres (the elevation of Mount Everest) with repeated laps of the mountain. Caz and Anna, both participants, share with us why they took part and what it is like to push the limits of your endurance. And why? We finish up with a quick wrap up of upcoming events on the bike around Melbourne.

Robbie graduated with honors from Lake Forest College with a double major in Business and Psychology. While working toward his Bachelor's degree, he played on the Forester hockey team, which advanced to the NCAA Tournament, and was named to the All-American Collegiate Cycling Team. In 2008, he was inducted into the LFC Athletic Hall of Fame for his accomplishments in both hockey and cycling. Robbie was a professional cyclist for 12 years with his last 4 years as a member of the U.S. Postal Service Cycling Team alongside Lance Armstrong and his U.S. Postal teammates. A competitive racer on the dirt, road and track since the age of 7, Ventura amassed over 70 victories during his professional career, was a member of the U.S. World Team and rode the Track World Championships in Hamar, Norway, placing 5th in the elimination. During our interview, I ask Robbie:   What does a typical training protocol look like 8-12 weeks leading up to the Tour de France, in terms of sample workouts, exercises, mileage, etc.? Do many professional cyclists use strength training, or any form of plyometrics/resistance training? During the Tour, nutrition and glycogen restoration is obviously an issue. What type of fuels are consumed, and in what quantities? How about hydration and water volume? Without touching on the doping scandal, a horse that gets kicked to death, are there sports performance supplements, such as creatine or nitric oxide that professional cyclists typically use? What type of recovery techniques or tools can a cylists or triathlete implement when multi-day workouts are occuring, or fast recovery is necessary? What are the top 3 examples you have of extreme workouts or feats of human performance leading up to or during the Tour? ------------------------------------------------------- Special Announcements: -Flexible Option: if you simply want unlimited Q&A e-mail access to Ben Greenfield, it is $175/month.

First Name Last Name Email Cell # (1+area code) --------------------------------------------------------------- Listener Q&A: Ioan asks: Why sometimes after a training session, do I have an "ammonia-like" smell in my nostrils afterwards e.g. by the time I get to shower? It's something I'm not doing right re nutrition, but can't figure out what. Sarah asks: I am a beginning triathlete and am taking a lot of supplements for performance and other health benefits. I am taking an amino acid supplement that contains aspartic acid and phenylalanine. I have seen foods that contain phenyalanine and have a warning on their label for that purpose. I have also done some research on both of these and see that they are part of the sugar substitute aspartame. Are these really amino acids with health benefits or should I stop taking this supplement b/c these aren't healthy? Geoffrey has a call in question: My 17 year old daughter has had a growing problem with not only falling asleep, but when she finally does sleep, she wakes around 3:00 a.m. and can't get back to sleep. She is a vegetarian and I'm wondering if she might be missing something in her diet. Do you have any thoughts as to what food or supplement might help? In my response to Geoffrey, I mention the Magnesium testing kits from http://tinyurl.com/bioletic and also the Expanded GI Panel and Tissue Mineral Analysis from UniKey Health Systems. For insomnia, I also recommend Natural Calm and this topical magnesium oil. chunkybearcub asks via twitter: @bengreenfield is there a particular brand of compression socks you recommend? im looking to wear a pair for a 50 mile ultra. Sarah has a call-in question about females building better leg muscles, and listener Daniel has a call-in question about how rowing compares to running and swimming for conditioning and calorie burning.
