For six years, Mark Allen was often in the lead late at the IRONMAN
Hawaii, and he fell apart every time. He came to believe the island
had it out for him. Then he won it six times. In this episode of
FRODENO GOING MENTAL, Jan sits down with Mark Allen in Kona. They
talk about the pickup truck that hit him on a ride and took away
his reason to race, the 1989 moment his mind went quiet, the shaman
whose image returned to him then, and why, at 68, he takes his
coffee outside before he picks up his phone. Both came to triathlon
from surf lifesaving, and Jan asks how a swimmer who calls himself
very average built the engine to win. They talk about what the
island tried to teach him: give everything you have, even on the
days you only have 60% of it. Enjoy this episode! Learn more about
