#962 – KONA Men's Recap 2026
Today we look at the Ironman World Championship Men's Race and the level-headed, consistent performance of Vincent Luis. We get into his disciplined training and his biggest focus while on the course. We talk the swim push, biking your own race, and saving something for the last 5k. We discuss the heat and different cooling methods along with why ice might not bet the best choice. These pros go all in, sometimes with a bad hand, and sometimes the bluff doesn't pay off.
