Patrick Lange, 2 time Ironman World Champion, is our special guest this week! Patrick was the first athlete to go under 8 hours at Kona in 2018 and in this interview he is open, honest, and funny.
Patrick talks about the run he did with his dad when he was 12 years old which sparked the start of his journey into endurance sport. He talks us through how he has dealt with setback after setback as he tried to make a career in triathlon and why he as on the brink of quitting before his breakthrough season. We also find out more about his famous finish line proposal to Julia!
