Episode 1 of your favourite new podcast is here: Triathlon Unfiltered. This is a place where you’ll hear real opinions, no holding back, no politically correct worries or fear of negative feedback. We do, however, start relatively uncontroversially for the debut episode about all things Kona from last weekend. But spicy things are to come.

Patrick Lange, Lionel Sanders, Kristian Blummenfelt, drafting, crazy pre race training destroying race day, bike tech, Magnus Ditlev, running, doping, Cam Wurf, Trevor Foley, Matt Marquardt, Leon Chevalier, Rudy Von Berg, race tactics, over biking, Gustav Iden - we go over it all + more in the ultimate Ironman World Champs debrief podcast!

We then talk about the training he did under former coach Luc Van Lierde (a 2 x Ironman World Champion himself) that took Rudy to a podium at the Ironman 70.3 World Champs in 2019 and how it differs from the training he and Mikal Iden have been doing in the lead up to Ironman Texas this year. Rudy then gives us a detailed breakdown of the 2023 Nice Ironman World Champs course and breaks down all his main competitors and why he thinks they can or can’t win the race.

Well, this is officially the craziest week of Road to the PTO European Open so far. Collin is injured and it's looking unlikely he will be ready to race and Mika had a broke crash and was in hospital when the episode was being recorded. So as the last man standing Frederic Funk called in Aaron Royle & Tom Bishop to fill in. Both of these two are athletes who will be at the front of the race so it was exciting to hear more from them about how they are preparing and their thoughts on the race.

Cam has come runner up at The Ironman World Championships twice and third twice and was known amongst his peers to be doing the highest volume of training in the sports history.

It’s time to listen to the podcast that everyone has been talking about with Ironman CEO Andrew Messick. This episode gets heated. There’s hard questions, debate, there’s back & forth and **spoiler alert** it ultimately ends with Andrew walking off the podcast. But at least he got to eat his lunch live on air before walking off

We talk about what training Alistair was doing leading into both of his Olympic Gold medal winning races, his training philosophies including the importance of aerobic training, high volume & consistency to success. And as always there’s the exact breakdown of what does a typical Monday -> Sunday training week look like for him. We go into some classic Alistair Brownlee stories, talk about the year ahead and how Alistair plans to win the Ironman World Championships.

In todays episode we talk about what training Collin did in the lead up to winning the PTO US Open with coach Mikal Iden & training partner Lionel Sanders. Lionel, Collin and Mikal decided to do a period of overreaching training prior to the PTO US Open in a bid to beat the worlds best - and it worked. We go through the training day by day and then discuss their brutal heat training. Then we talk about the following month in the lead up to the Ironman World Champs where, under the watchful eye of Coach Mikal, Collin & Lionel continued on their path of doing HUGE amounts of training out on the big island. Talbot Cox filmed their training out there and posted about it every day on Lionel Sanders YouTube page. Once you listen to this - go and watch that. We then talk about diet, both day to day and race day. Collin is as honest and detailed as any guest we’ve had and I found this chat with him so interesting, raw & insightful.

In today’s episode we do a deep dive on the positive doping test returned by Tomas Rodriguez. What is clomophine? Why do people take it? When was the test? We dissect his performances, pulling out of races in the past couple of months, how Tomas maintains his innocence and is it possible for chicken and eggs to be the reason he tests positive? TUE’s and suspect coaches also come into the conversation. This is the deep dive you’ve been wanting since you heard about Tomas’s positive drug test!

Emma Snowsill is one of the greatest female triathletes to have ever lived. She's an Olympic Gold Medalist and 3 x Triathlon World Champion. We talk all about Emma's training. Exactly what her swim, bike and run training looked like in order to win her Olympic Gold Medal. She takes us through specifics of her weekly training, what every single session specifically looked like, where it all was in her schedule and why. This was as comprehensive a training chat as we've had. We also talk all about her racing, coaches, retirement and then go deep on the mental side of triathlon and how Emma believes the thing that separated her from the rest was her mental toughness. She takes us through this in detail. We briefly touch on her relationship with husband Jan Frodeno and find out if she has any influence on his training. Emma is one of the true legends of triathlon and if you don't know her story and love triathlon, this episode is for you.
