Morgan Pearson!!!
The King of Zone 2 (who cares) joins us for the first time ever on The Triathlon Hour! We start the episode by getting to know Morgan a little bit, how he got offered a T100 contract, who by, when it happened, what his plans for 2025 with running, short course and T100 are, his plans for Ironman and his plans for the LA Olympics. We then go into his training and talk about how he trains, his coach Ryan Bolton and what will be needed in his training to have success over middle distance. Things then take a bit of a turn and we talk about the famous Zone 2 meme, the "who cares" meme and Morgan talks about his 2020 rivalry with Sam Long and his potential 2025 rivalry with Jelle Geens. As with everything Morgan does, this was a fun one!!!

Taylor Knibb - Ironman 70.3 World Champion!!!!
Episode 2 of 2025 is here and we are joined by the middle distance GOAT and newly crowned Ironman 70.3 World Champion/T100 World Champion Taylor Knibb. We go deep on her training, particularly the new training approach she had in 2024 with coach Dan Lorang. We talk about weekly structure, bike workouts, long rides, long runs, run week structure, sessions, etc etc etc. You name it, we talked about it. We also have a bit of a laugh about the "new" Taylor Knibb who isn't afraid to speak her mind. And if anyone wants to know what power numbers Taylor Knibb rides, then listen closely to this episode as we try to get to the bottom of it.
