In this raw and deeply personal episode, Chris interviews Dennis just one day after his emotional Ironman Hamburg experience — a race that didn’t end as planned.
Dennis opens up about the highs and lows of his preparation, what went wrong on race day, and the difficult decision to stop during the run. From tapering missteps and cold water shock to unexpected breathing issues and the emotional toll of a DNF, this is an honest reflection on the reality of long-distance triathlon.
More than a race review, this episode is about resilience, learning from failure, and the courage to keep going. Dennis shares the powerful lessons he’s taking with him — not just as an athlete, but as a person.
🎙️ A must-listen for anyone who's faced a setback, felt the weight of expectations, or needed a reminder that thriving isn’t always about crossing the finish line — it’s about continuing the journey.
