Sam…..I have openly wished (and encouraged) you to embrace the “villian role” in long course Tri. You absolutely turn on that inner monster during competition, and there’s plenty of people out there that love when you lose. Embrace it!!! Tri needs a villian! Who wants another nice guy? I want to root for the villian! Keep up the hard work, the success, and the trash talk! Love it all!

Nice insights. Thanks a lot! After following you for a while it is clear you are a mix of driven, funny, crazy and you bring a lot to the sport. Finally another actual character who is not playing a role, just beeing himself. That's why i will continue to cheer for you - even as a German. Since Jan is out (😭), Patrick as well you can get 2nd place after Sebi 😄👍 Jokes aside - keep rocking man! Your journey is great and i wish you all the best. (Especially when our old Germans retire soon 😜)

LOL - 'haters' or just people calling you out for claiming you're in the same bracket as people who have actually walked the walk and won multiple world championships, rather than just running their mouth on youtube? you keep racing your soft american fields and shouting to everyone that you're the greatest though, the fanboys love it. by the way, doesn't David McNamee have a couple of Kona podiums in his pocket?

Now that Jan and Patrick is out, my money is on Sam as no.1. I think Sam is stronger than Gustav and I think the strongest will win St. George (not the fastest). I think Lionel will suffer with his nutrition again. Alistair will go out too hard. Joe Skipper is one of the biggest threats - very durable athlete. Just hope Sam doesn't overdo it and get an injury before race day.

@@troycollett8540 we'll see. I hope it for him because he has been trying for years. My guess is that his body just doesn't work so well after 6.5 hours. Over the last 30 years there have been several athletes (olympic & 70.3 champions) that struggled with the Ironman. Simon Lessing was one of them.

@rogerc23
@rogerc23 2 года назад
@@AJ5dude well my advice for what it’s worth is after the Olympic make sure you are eating the best recovery foods, which are obviously low inflammation food like a wide variety of vegetables, fruits grains and beans and make sure you recover your protein levels right after the race. A big greens shake would help. Then in terms of workouts you want to be doing shorter stints but still pretty good intensity. This is a classical tampering type of workout for the week leading up to 70.3. Oh a good video on 70.3 tapering was done by Triathlon Taren. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0-dtqkSIp54.html
