Alistair Brownlee has achieved almost everything in sports: double
Olympic champion, serial world-title collector and one of the most
uncompromising racers the sport has ever produced. In this episode
Jan sits down with someone he’s shared two decades of rivalry,
respect and occasional desert bike rides with - a relationship
built on racing each other to the line and trying not to push each
other into oncoming traffic. Alistair talks about what it really
takes when “good enough” has never been an option: pushing himself
to 99.9%, embracing obsession and why he never cared for “fake
confidence.” They dive into how perfection both powered his career
and broke his body and why he’d always rather risk everything than
arrive at 95% to a competition. Plus: the moment in Rio 2016 he
forced himself to actually remember, why he still can’t let his
brother beat him and how he’s rebuilding purpose now that the start
lines are behind him. Follow Frodeno Going Mental on Spotify, Apple

Get your mind ready, tune in and take a deep breath, cause Frodeno
is Going Mental. Starting January 12th, Going Mental takes you
inside the headspace of people who’ve been pushed to their limits
and pushed themselves beyond them. Athletes, Musicians, Creators,
Thinkers and above all: people, whose stories go far beyond
results. Jan Frodeno isn’t stepping in as the champion here. He’s
the one asking the questions. The one who knows what it feels like
to doubt yourself, fail, get back up and to wonder whats left when
the noises fades. Honest conversations, quiet truths, unexpected
moments of vulnerability and stories that stick with you long after
the episodes ends. No hero talk. Just real people, real emotions
and the part most never speak about. Every monday, starting January
12th, Jan sits down with guests who bring raw insights, tough
lessons and the kind of perspective that hits harder than any
training session. Hit subscribe/follow so you don’t miss the start.
Produced by Podstars by OMR.

Über diesen Podcast
Welcome to Frodeno Going Mental. A podcast with me, Jan Frodeno,
where I sit down with people who know what it feels like to hit the
edge and sometimes go way past it. Physically, mentally,
emotionally. In every episode, we dig into questions that don’t
leave you alone:
What actually drives us?
What holds us back?
And
how do we grow beyond the person we thought we were? We talk about
the search for meaning, identity and the tiny details that turn
good into great. But also about the things most of us keep quiet:
the setbacks, the doubt, the loneliness, the dark stretches that
never make it into the highlight reel. This podcast is for anyone
who wants honest conversations, real resilience, and stories that
go deeper than results.
If you’re curious about what happens in
that space between breaking down and breaking through - enjoy the
show.
