Training Day: Motorpacing with Olympic champion Gwen Jorgensen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- Gwen Jorgensen won gold in the 2016 Olympic Triathlon, and she's shooting for a repeat victory this year in Paris. As motorpacing was a big part of her training in the lead-in to the 2016 Olympics, she is using a similar formula this season.
I tag along for a motorpace session - her third (!) workout of the day - as she does an intricate set of intervals, jumping around the scooter for a few seconds, tucking back in the draft, and riding alongside but in the wind to mimic the demands of Olympic triathlon racing.
Thanks for letting me tag along, Gwen and Pat!

Very cool to see her training after having a kid! Inspiring to women everywhere! Go Gwen!
Great video Ben!!! Would love to see more like this. Love your channel 👍👍👍
Thank you. I will see who else I can rope into letting me tag along.
Keen for a Keegan one
@mikeed666 would need an e-bike if not a full on motorcycle for that one…
Go Gwen! Thanks Ben, really enjoyed that. 👍
Gosh! What an incredible person. Respect.
Well done Ben for asking the right questions...how to interpretate training results and even establishing training benchmarks.
Gwen is very down to earth and will add, extremely lean. I was in fact a bit surprised at how lean she looked. No doubt helping her W/kg.
Thanks to all.
Great video, looking forward to this series
More of this, this was excellent.
That was so cool! Great job. Thanks for that.
Awesome insight into a Pro Athlete's training, brilliant.
Minnesota's finest endurance athlete
Ben, you are in good shape 👍🏻
That’s very interesting! I wonder if the other recreational cyclists seen on video realized they were pedaling next to an elite Olympic Athlete?
Nice session 🙂
Gwen! 💪💪
She is definitely in Hero Status
When Gravel World 🌎 and Triathlon World 🌎 Collab, it’s a big win.- Ben, we need to get Gwen to Steamboat Gravel after the Olympics.
36 Bike path! LETS GO!
👌
motorwork is the BEST
Now that’s some clickbait, Ben. You only did 1/3 of Gwen’s training day!
This is true... No way I could keep up running, and I would drown in the pool. That might be a funnier video, though...
long upper legs make more power. more lever momentum
The bike leg is her weakest event. She started as an outstanding swimmer and is an elite runner
@@veganpottertheveganelite triathlon runner correct, elite runner?
Canyon needs a bigger downtube…can barely read their logo on it.
Oh you'll read it when the seat stay snaps 😆
