Don't destroy yourself in Lake Placid. It's your training session for Kona. Like you said, "The peak comes in October". Love it. Listening to you speak is bringing out the 2017 Kona vibes. You have no idea how many people you're going to make cry if you win Kona. Wishing you all the best.
Hey Lionel and Talbot. Love the content and the open honest thoughts I’ve been following the channel since the days up in Windsor. This is totally unrelated but It looked like you might not have a fence around your pool at you house and seeing your amazing little guy out there freaked me out. I am a fire captain in Arizona and have seen so many unfortunate outcomes with little ones and unfenced pools here in our state. I know you guys are amazing parents and by no means am I trying to preach to you nor would I try and tell anyone how to parent their children. Just something that may not be in the forefront of your mind coming from a place that doesn’t have many pools and drowning cases. Wish you all the best with training and your lovely family!
Can't wait to see you blow past me on the bike course! Race your race , chase that W and if it happens, it happed because your training is on point. Good luck from a fellow Canuck!
Hey Lionel, good luck on Sunday at LP! You'll ride right past North Country School/Camp Treetops! The kids will be out there cheering you (and all the competitors)! Give them a wave if you can!
Hey, Lionel, I'd love to hesr more about your story before you got into the sport. You talked about it before, but I think a video dedicated to that may help many youngsters who are trying to stay away from trouble. Your story is inspiring!
Hey Lionel, how do you think yours gains in the wind tunnel will affect you in your next race? i can't wait to see the impact of thoses gains also. Go Lion...
Unfortunately, will never happen anymore it seems - unlikely - but probably, if he would try .... 🙂 But its ok, the reliable steady fighter, hunting behind the others ... not that pressure in must lead - that can make more fun, and its still so exciting ... like going crazy ...
12:00- what happened between St George and Kona in 2022? From the outside looking in one thing stood out to me at the time (sure there were a bunch of other stuff that none of us UA-cam tuber fans would have the first clue about). In my view - having raced an ironman once a month since June 2021 to November AND the ‘2021’ WC p[postponed to May 2022, it did not seem to me that you had a proper ‘end of season’ full body shut down for 2-4 weeks. THAT is what you needed to do for the rest of May 2022, then start to rebuild from ‘ground zero’ in June (ie. do the pre season stuff you’d usually do in October-Nov the year before before your traditional ‘first race’ of the next year at Indian Wells. I think you got carried away with a combination of ‘the Norwegian method’ (especially thinking ‘well Gustavo and Kristian aren’t having a break, why should I’) and the fact that the PTO were debuting their three big money races (PTO Open canada and USA and also the 2nd edition of the Collins Cup). Compounding that was the dilemma of yet another scoring Arizona summer and doing your first ‘altitude block’ at Flagstaff: put a fork in you, you were cooked! In hindsight (lols), a month off then indoor training at home for 6-8 weeks, followed by an altitude camp at say Boulder for 3 weeks in August would have set you yourself up for a perfect 8 week Kona specific preparation at the back end. Of course that would have meant doing the Canadian Open as an ‘early season race’ - in only ‘early season’ form and probably skipping both the Collins Cup and the US Open, but you would have been tip top by Kona in October.
Rooting for you. Please train according to what you know is working! With this bike a couple of years ago and Patrick Lange would have never caught you. Focus man. A sentence I picked up lately: "Develop a sense of urgency." 🤙🏻
What training did Lionel do when he broke his rib? I’ve just started to get back into training and don’t want to lose all progress but managed to fracture a rib in the weekend. Just wondering what he did 😅
The 2022 Kona was such a disappointment. The training under Iden was clearly excellent. But Lionel and I think it was Gustav, Colin Chartier and VonBerg decided to actually race Kona a few days before in their training session. VonBerg decided to drop out. And Lionel let the drug cheat Chartier get into his head. Thankfully that parasite is gone. But the lesson is you always race within your own mind and on that day. Visualization is extremely important. But letting others control your thoughts isn’t. And of course, after Kona Lionel threw the entire baby out with the bath water. Fired his coach and quit IM. And pointing this out on his Discord channel got me banned by one of his woke moderators who was crying about “negative language”. The last year it looks like his focus is back with some real attention to detail. Oceanside and MT were very good races. Now it’s time to see where’s he’s at for IM. Hope he stays injury free and has a great day. Always wishing you the best Lionel. You probably have no real idea how many people you’ve inspired to doing things they never dreamed.

Never let another athletes training get in your head. A Belgium newspaper wrote a nice article about it in 2019. It's called Stravanoia.

Win or learn, we love you, Lionel!

Wish you nothing but success this coming weekend.
Cool to hear you sounding super confident and in a good place!
Nice Escalade Lionel!
The guys highly admirable

Can’t wait to see you race in person at IMLP!!
Wouldn’t mind seeing him race in Australia or New Zealand
Come do challenge canberra in November
He should do Busselton. It’s almost the perfect race for him.
LFG Lionel!
Lionel is channeling his inner jedi
"Listen to your body and do the absolute best that YOU can do each and everyday, and that has nothing to do with anybody else"
Got that wahoo treadmill
CANNOT WAIT FOR IM PLACID!!! yewwwwwwww 🔥🔥🔥
Cheering for you to win Kona!!
100% he will win WC one day 🔥

I was at the Ironman Arizona as a spectator. I remember some dude with a mustache was all alone transitioning off the bike to the run.
Also second to Jan at tri battle

Who is his coach right now? Does anybody know?
ultra bikepacking events!!!
What training did Lionel do when he broke his rib? I’ve just started to get back into training and don’t want to lose all progress but managed to fracture a rib in the weekend. Just wondering what he did 😅
He sat up on his couch. He was just recovering- laying down and sat up.
@@andreaolive5912 sad times, at least I’m consistent 🥲
Toe curls. 30,000 a day.
Discord gang🎉
Do I spy the wahoo kickr run?
Indoor training may be phenomenal in terms of training effect, but Zwifites are crashing all the time and losing time in downhills and corners
Kona is a straight road
Yup… LCB agrees with you. The WC.
I’m with you on amateur Zwifties, but the guy has been a pro triathlete for over a decade, I think he’s a safer bet for all-indoor training
I agree with you about Zwift riders not having great bike skills, but they’re also not getting hit by cars or trucks
Zwifties for the win 🎉🎉🎉
Haha driving shirtless 🫣
Fire emoji
Still waiting on the Slowtwitch react video
That's where communication with your coach is so important. To much fuvking around for 2 many years.
It is better than 24329 years
What coffee beans are we rocking with?
Grey beard ??
Typing
Baby near the pool scared me, legally in my country you have to build a childproof fence around the whole area
Why Lionel uses gloves indoor?
Sweat.
Germs
All good celebrate your wins. Too late for Kona win. Too many others in the arena now. Still very proud of you!!!!
Has lionel ever done Roth?

So anyone who wants you to shut your trap is woke, huh? Lol
Unfortunately 2nd is 1st loser!🤷♂️
Narcissist much?
