Podcasts about you are an ironman

Our guest today is Mike Reilly, a true legend in the hearts and minds of many and someone who has witnessed the finish point of hundreds of thousands of dreams. As the lead announcer for Ironman triathlons across the globe for over three decades, Mike is most celebrated for creating a universal language consisting of four simple words. "You Are An Ironman" has been a primary motivator for countless triathletes to get out of bed each morning and get after their goal of finishing the iconic Ironman distance triathlon. Mike was our guest for the 100th episode of this podcast in 2018, on which we dive into his back story, the journey to his reign on the red carpet, and the Big Island moment when that famous phrase was born. Enjoy this meaningful conversation with not just a voice but the kind and compassionate heart of this Ironman hero. In this episode, we discuss: - life after Ironman - trusting it will all work out for you - family as his anchor - his final Kona - living a life of no regrets - we have one thing we can control on race day - we must motivate ourselves - sharpening your skill of presence - no limits mindset - playing the role of a connector - we are not alone in not knowing who we are - teach to learn - exercise is the best medication Namaste- Jess

This week The Voice of ironman, Mike Reilly, returns to the show to talk about his new book, Finding My Voice.  Mike has been the announcer at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii for almost 40 years.  His iconic greeting, "You Are An Ironman", has welcomed over 350,000 finishers across the line at more than 180 ironman races worldwide.  Now, Mike has decided to put pen to paper and share some of his favourite stories from the last 40 years.  When you read this book be prepared to laugh, cry, be amazed and inspired.  As you can imagine we covered a lot of ground including: How Ironman competitors are Reilly’s 2nd family, and what it’s like to have your family show up at every race Ironman, and why it’s not about what you did but who you became When the normally quiet and introverted Ironman World Champion gave Mike’s 7 year old son Andy his sweaty, smelly race shoes that he wore when winning Ironman Australia a few days before MIke’s walk-on music "Baba O’Riley” by The Who, and the bet that got out of hand “That" moment when you ask your best mate to stand in on the mic while you take a comfort break Sarah Reinertson, Scott Rigsby, and the inspiration of the para-athletes Why triathlon and Ironman in particular is a metaphor for life and the way you live your life To find out more about Mike Reilly and to purchase his book, Finding My Voice please go to mikereilly.net o find out more about Simon’s coaching please visit his website here.

Subscribe on iTunes / Subscribe on Stitcher / Subscribe on Google Play Two weeks ago, we had the honor of joining Sarah Hartman, Executive Director of the Ironman Foundation at the finish line of Ironman Boulder, from 10PM to midnight, cheering on the day's final finishers. If you're looking for some motivation, something to pump you up on your next long run, this podcast is for you! For those of you who don't know, and Ironman is a 140.6 mile triathlon consisting of: (1) a 2.4 mile open-water swim; (2) a 112 mile bike; and then (3) a full 26.2 mile marathon. Though I've done six of them, it still seems impossible as I type this. But as you'll hear in this podcast, anything is possible! In this podcast, you'll hear how Ironman and the IMF are changing lives and communities around the world. You'll also get to meet two Ironman legends, Scott Rigsby (the first double leg amputee to finish Kona), and Dave Orlowski (who finished in 3rd place in the very first Ironman, 40 years ago in Honolulu, Hawaii). (By the way, here's a photo of Dave Orlowski in his jean shorts for the very first Ironman.  He borrowed the bike!) My interview with Sarah takes about 25 minutes.  But then I just left my recorder running as she and I stay in the finisher's chute for over an hour until the last finishers cross the line. And that's where the real magic happens! If you ever have the opportunity to attend an Ironman, go to the finish line from 10 to midnight.  It's one of the greatest things you will ever witness or participate in.  Whereas the race winners finished nearly eight hours earlier, the people finishing in these hours have been out there all day, since six in the morning. Some of these athletes are in their 20's.  Some are in their 70's.  Some are finishing in their projected times. Others may have hoped to finish sooner, but had a rough day.  (It was hot and windy!)  But in all cases, these athletes have just written an epic story for themselves. This podcast will PUMP YOU UP! You will feel the music. You will feel the crowd. You'll hear legendary Mike Reilly announcing every finisher as they cross the finish line: YOU ARE AN IRONMAN! Here's a rough outline to guide you through the podcast: Interview with Sarah Hartman, Executive Director of the Ironman Foundation. Special appearance by Scott Rigsby. Short interlude, as Sarah and I head into the finisher's chute to cheer on the finishers. Interview with Dave Orlowski in the finisher's chute.  (Amazing!!) Cheering on all the finishers, with the final official finisher coming in a mad dash to cross the line with one second before the cutoff! EPIC!! Imagine: as even a few more racers finish after the official time cutoff. (They're each still an Ironman in my book!) Huge thanks to Sarah and the Ironman Foundation for inviting me to share this experience with them. This was so much fun! #AnyThingIsPossible #EveryMileMatters!   The post Sarah Hartman, Executive Director of the Ironman Foundation: Anything is Possible! appeared first on Charity Miles.

  Zach Boivin went to watch a friend race Ironman Lake Placid in 2015.  At the time he weighed 330 pounds and was not active.  He was inspired watching the finishers that night and the next day he decided he was going to do a triathlon.   He thought all triathlons were Ironman distance. Fortunately, he realized there were shorter races and he signed up for Ironman 70.3 Syracuse the following year.  In 2017 he attempted his first Ironman at Lake Placid. This is his life changing journey that starts with running his first step and then two years later hearing Mike Reilly say "You Are An Ironman!"
