Post Race Thoughts || Collins Cup & Ironman Copenhagen 

I’ll be running my first Ironman in Chattanooga. Super happy Lionel will be there. Can’t wait for him to zoom past me on the second loop of the bike course

One of my best memories was getting passed by Jan in Roth on his way to the WR. Now I get to get passed by Lionel in Chattanooga!

Yo, the fact that you freaking did the ethical thing... Fan for life man. Fan for life.

See you Chatty boss! I’ll miss you at St. G.

You are the best. Was fun seeing you in real life in Copenhagen 👍

I’ve been waiting for this upload ever since u finished copahagen

Not gonna lie, after seeing Talbot’s story of swimmers cutting course and no DQ, you really gotta question IM’s standards and livings up to the rules - very disappointing

Good on you Lionel, i like where your head is at in this video.

350 watts for 80k. Seriously impressive numbers, especially for a lightweight like Lionel.

„You wanna destroy them and crush them…it’s not actually very aggressive“ lol

Stay tuned for Lionel’s new feature challenge ’Stop sucking at cycling’

I like how you said “I had all these excuses” A real champ like yourself strips that away and addresses the real challenges faced during competition. Transparency is key and I’m glad you opened up about it 💯

Can you do a full day of eating video again, and go through the supplements you take?

I appreciate, you didn't take the shortcut! 💪👍

18:10 When Lionel was where Kienle is in this shot, Talbot smacked Lionel's behind... Talbot, we saw that on the official feed haha You're getting dexterous with your one-handed camera gimbal skills. hahaha :p

We took a photo with Lionel at Collins cup with my brother and 2 friend's. None of us were able to speak when We met our superhero :)

Yes, IM Chattanooga!! Another match up with Sam Long, can't wait to watch this one! Humidity is going to be the biggest challenge in this one.

Outstanding performances,Lionel! So inspiring to see you improve. Keep it up, #nolimits

Lion's post-race talks have become my 4th triathlon discipline for triathlon training, let's call it sport-soul training and it's not really about performance. thanks Lion, for sharing and motivating people

When Eric Langerstom’s dog Flynn broke his camera, Talbot was the first one to step up and get some donations going to help replace the equipment. I don’t know much about cameras but I’m guessing the are quite pricey. Wish we could help talbot. Already bought mech from him. Kona pictures hanging on my walls at home.

#NOLIMITS

if you really want to be the best. You have to keep yourself inspired, and your spirits very high all the time. That will mean, a lot of socializing, training always with at least 2 others, meeting Olympians and the greatest athletes training with them all over the world. And anything else your soul needs to keep inspired.

Hi Lionel, love watching your videos, you are very inspiring.

Saludos desde COSTA RICA. Adoro Lionel Sanders, adoro el Triatlon 🤩😍😍🤘🤘🤘

Lionel, you are doing fantastic. You are doing everything right. The mental game is important too. It's not about others. It's abt yourself. Never give up. Rooting for you.

I just love this videos!!! ... you really understand tactics, feelings and you re live the race in the best way posible!. The footage is amazing, well done Talbot!!

I’m super excited that if Jake 🙃picks his nose it’ll be al’right 😅😂😂😂😂☺️💙💙💙

And yet another entertaining video. Thanks for the insights from the collins cup. The official video coverage for the Collins Cup was a bit lacklustre so thanks for sharing the experience from a participant's point of view.

You finally put an aero bottle on your down tube. Getting there :) watts/cda ftw!

This is why nobody should care too much aout Swim/Bike/Run times in triathlon, and just focus on rankings and how athletes fares with their competition. Triathlon courses are like WMM/Diamond League races.

That speech by whomever at the end was a mega cringe for me. Also, it sounded like the start of a good "curb your event-importance...".

I almost died without ur videos lionel Thank u for it Keeeeep it the hell up

Long shot here. Anyone know the music to the Collins cup montage? Super nice sounding. Would love it on my pre race playlist.

don't you think there are some learnings from the loss of your nutrition at the start of the bike at Collins Cup, as well as reduced avail of nutrition in CPH? Perhaps worthy of analysis - about getting enough nutrition, rather than too much, trying to replace all "sweat" nutrients? Can the gut/GI cope with the physical effort you are going through at your intensity and then the quantity of nutrition in your gut and your bodies ability to utilise it all?

collins cup was overrated, their coverage was mediocre at best and just fell flat. didn't care for the 3 person format, 12 small races where some of those races got little attention. personally, i think your YT content does more for the sport that this overhyped event does.

Happy to hear you pulled 70.3! LS so smart that you have your own answer to this decision. 3 more Ironman by February 👊👊👊

Lionel you must give the Andrew Huberman’s podcast a listen. A neuroscientist and ophthalmologist from Stanford with super powerful information on sleep and much more!

Finally a new video!😁

That Yak is your spirit animal 😂

What's the Stolen Camera Story?

Great video, just found your channel and really enjoying it, amazing performance in the Collins cup.

15:29 useless security

Missed your updates man! No limits!!!

What a unit! Way to get up and finish the bike! Extremely impressive

What the videos songs guys?

This is the guy I want to be!

very nice video, great effort from you, Lionel , good luck :)

My favourite triathlete

What do you think of the pumas?

You the man Lionel!

We love you Lionel!

Keep it up 💪🏼💪🏼

Enjoy your content man. Good for you and all that swam the proper course. Your videos have reignited my interest in your sport. I do want to say though bro, if you want to improve your run performance, the most bang you'll EVER get for your buck will be moving away from heal striking. Up to you if you choose to believe a recreational athlete or not but I used to be a heal striker and am now on my forefoot and can tell you that you'll hardly be able to believe the difference. It's amazing to me how many elite level athletes are still heal striking. All the best bro. -A new fan

Lionel, you are THE MAN! Very good video. Thank you. Keep going. Keep posting videos. Fingers crossed for Kona Feb 22

Selfishly bummed I won't see Lionel in the flesh in St George but the plan sounds great can't wait to see the February Kona version of Lionel

You make this sport worth watching. F Ironman! They are turning into the IOC

Sam left the water ~2min behind and finished 2nd. That is the beauty of sport! It is not as predictable as Lionel made it to be in this video.

If you’re wanting some bike buddies, there are plenty on the Tuesday and Saturday Shootout! Love to see you blow that ride apart!

Mrs Sanders should do more interviews with you - you are more relaxed and insightful!

Good recap! Sucks about Talbots cam.

looks like it scared the shit out of you biking with gustav... :-))

Hoping to see Lionel on the course while I race IM Chattanooga!

💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Right on! Looking forward to seeing you Chattanooga!

So no Saint George ah !!! 😩 not gonna be the same without u Lionel .. I was waiting for you against long and íden … no the same sg.

I love you Lionel but you got to get your mind right. Confidence is self belief. Confirmation is doing something that you thought you couldn't do. You don't need to screw yourself up by doing 4-5 Ironmans, just remember that you already got what it takes and your day will come. You just got to trust in the process. Stop rushing

Congratulations. Enjoyed tuning into all your races.

Lionel, what if you do a 3 month trip with the Norwegians

Can you explain why you run with puma shoes now?

Look forward to seeing you in Chattanooga.

🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍

For cryin out loud, FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!

The man is a legend of the sport, end of story.

Lionel needs to get a training group together that would be so good!

No doubt, no limits!!!! Let's get it Lionel!

Definitely! Wishing you the best! It was awesome seeing racing and performing to the best!

how is the non twitching on the bike going?

IM Choo, get ready for the heat!

Stoked for Sac! See you there!

The cow photo has to go lol

No nikes on the run?? 🤔

Contend with the eat in the world? My Man, you are one of the best is the world! Keep being you!

top athlete!!!

How does a videographer lose their camera ? Seems sus

Lionel, 100% get out on your road bike more often. Ride with the top guys, you'll have some fast group rides right where you live. The intensity will help, as will the riding skills. It's also heaps of fun :)

We need another diet video! Day in the life!

Follow him long enough to know he just talks shit depending on how he performs… one minute he is a gun on the bike, next minute its the run, then now we hear he has bad legs for 70.3 with no speed but now he is confident on a 70.3 start line but not ironman

Hi Lionel! Create video! Create of you to share your thoughts. One recommendation: get a little bit more in touch with other triathletes or get a mentor. There are some things like the current speed in a river or nutrition at the end of the marathon (coke&water), that one expects someone with your performance to know. And I bet there are a lot more things an amateur like me isn't even aware of. All the best for the season finals!

You and Sam Long should become training partners...no brainer

Hey Lionel just wondering if you've ever tried running on your mid foot?

Does anyone know if the 2nd place finish got him a Kona spot?

You think your bike was bad? Have you seen Dave Scott's suit?!
