The Triathlon Hour

The things we love most about Taylor Knibb is her honesty, her detailed & analytical story telling and her contagious energy. Today’s podcast has all of that in spades. Taylor goes through her 2025 year in detail we’ve not come close to hearing anywhere else. From a tough start to the year with burn out, stress and T100 contract negotiations to the crazy events that unfolded when she collapsed with 2km to go whilst in the lead of the Ironman World Championships in Kona, we go into it all. Taylor was as honest and open as you’ll likely ever hear her and all we can do is thank her for that because it made for a podcast that’s a bit different from your standard one. We hope you enjoy it.

Justin, Jackson & Ari are back to bring you up to speed on the last week in their lives on the road to racing Ironman 70.3 Oceanside to open their 2026 triathlon seasons. Justin starts the show with an absolutely insane statement that could end the podcast, then they get into an hour of the best training and racing discussions so far on the series. Everything from big gear cycling to long runs to threshold farming. This season just keeps getting better and if you don’t love it after this episode, you’re a pretender.

Join Jack, Vicky, Appo & Greg as they discuss a recent article written by legendary coach Joel Filio about being too fit, too soon in the season. Then Jack ranks the best Ironman World Champions before the best part of every show - responding to your Spotify comments!

Jackson starts the show with a shocking & disturbing revelation before Ari & Justin gets involved to start talking about their training weeks. The three boys were all on different training camps this week - Justin undertook Tadej Pogacar levels of bike training, Ari continues his rise as the Zone 2 King and Jackson does even more VO2 Max. Plenty of insightful training talk and banter yet again this week.

This week we starts things off by discussing zone 2 training, how to be a good time trialist, polarised training with high volume and ERG mode on the trainer. We then talk about food & diet for a little bit before a short but interesting discussion of what is the most important run session of the week. And, as always, we finish the show off by reading and responding to your Spotify comments!
