Sub 32…
There are some excellent age group runners in tri but not too many troubling 5:20 miles for 10 k?!
Does he mean stand-alone or in a tri?
There’s no seriousness in that whole thread apart from one poor fool who attempts it. Then women get involved. Well it ends on a high/low note - pretty sure the last post is a hate crime these days.

Lionel Sanders–We are blessed to have him in Triathlon: Triathlon Forum: Slowtwitch Forums
Is this peak ST?
A thread for no other reason than a Lionel love-in which very quickly gets into bullets being fired!

Probably for the rant thread but two words I hate in that article. Blessed and privileged.
We’re not blessed by some higher power to have some chap doing triathlon. Its not a privilege to see him race, you just turn up to where he is racing.
I saw some bollocks on LinkedIn the other day that said “Leadership is a privilege”. No its not, its a job.

Meh, they’re all “you are either with us or you are against us” over in the US.
it can also be a complete and utter pain in the arse having to babysit those under your leadership.
“what do you want to with your career?”
“I wanna be a manager”.
“you absolutely sure about that??”

I resent that. I do a lot more than 10-15mins work a week as upper management. Probably at least 45.

As long as most of that extra 30mins is claiming expenses, all good.

Quite enjoying watching this one. Man is an absolute machine!
After so may of the fake/gamed efforts shame he’s not getting more credit. But I suspect he’s happy just to be out doing it and couldn’t care less about the publicity.

Yeah I gave him a little nod earlier today.
As well as being amazing, his sleep and nutrition is interesting. I think it at least challenges the notion of continuous sleep being best.

I quite often read this forum, but I’ve never joined or posted before - haven’t seen any women here yet. So I’ll stay on the sidelines!! just wanted to say…
Rait is an absolute machine and thanks for linking the thread. I think it’s a shame he’s not getting more credit too, which is why I started the thread in the first place to show more people what a real effort looks like.
