What it takes to be an Ironman – with Sam Long

He is one of the most outspoken personalities in triathlon – and
maybe all of professional sports: Sam Long is bringing power and
fun to the competition, yet he’s built an impressive track record
with multiple Ironman wins. But it’s not just about trophies, it’s
about the mindset, his transparency about the highs and lows and
furthermore about his belief that failure is a necessary part of
being successful. Sam is talking about growing up in Boulder, how
swimming is the hardest discipline for him, and why he doesn’t like
to be called an influencer. Fascinating insights from an athlete
who is known for pushing himself to the limit and beyond – but can
he push through the Powerbrains quiz as well? Find out and listen
