Why gravel riding is great for triathlon training. Builds strong aerobic endurance, no cars, improves bike handling, more efficient pedal stroke, uninterrupted riding, and develops confidence.

Out doing some ridge running in Mallorca yesterday. The Manaslu circuit has certainly influenced this. Check out my new documentary if you e not seen it yet. https://t.co/MNRL6Xzt5j

Can carbs during exercise spare muscle glycogen? Yes,but barely. Our new meta-analysis (31 studies) shows CHO intake = a small reduction in muscle glycogen use (~20–25 mmol·kg⁻¹ over ~110 min). No effect of: carb dose, timing, type, exercise mode, starting glycogen.

The PTO, T100 or whatever it’s calling itself now reminds me of a shit band that never releases an album. Instead of writing original songs, they cover other people’s hits (crucifying them) and hope the association carries them. @Timheming

Whereabouts protect clean sport. 1 mistake can happen, even 2. But 3 in 12 months isn’t bad luck; it’s a pattern. If athletes could avoid testing by simply being unavailable, the whole system collapses. 3 strikes exist for a reason. A ban at that point isn’t harsh it’s necessary.

Impressive stuff
Think this makes Alex the fastest bonafide triathlete of all-time (?) But worth noting how high level his running’s been from a young age & there’s been serious dedication to marathon specific work since end of 2024 triathlon season. Hopefully makes this result all the sweeter.

Avoiding FAI Surgery Through Regenerative Medicine at 65 •FAI doesn’t always mean surgery. Regenerative medicine can change the story. Stem cells, PRP and focused shockwave are her plan #HipPreservation #FAI #AvoidingSurgery #OlderRunner #RegenerativeMedicine #StemCells

My next episode is out. As expected my critique of the T100 cake and arse party doesn’t pull any punches. Also check out what it takes to complete the Manaslu circuit in less than 6 days. @Timheming

Leaving Thailand today for Nepal after @tri_c_livesey won the UCI gravel (mud) race. 1 week wasn’t enough time to experience this country, we may come back. Our next adventure awaits along with some charity work. Peak Education Nepal.

“Why don’t more athletes speak out?”
WADA: "Whistleblowers, Speak Up!" Also WADA: "Whistleblowers, we will hunt you down!"

Every time an athlete pops positive, the lawyer spins the same ‘contaminated by my partner’ story. They know if an excuse dodged a ban once, it’s now a legal cheat code. Funny how due process gets way more thorough when you have budget.
