Episode notes

This week, Coach Rob talks with Team Oxygenaddict athlete Michael Mann, a first-time Ironman finisher at Ironman Barcelona 2025.

Michael works offshore on ships, typically four weeks at sea, four weeks at home.

Learn how he:

Adapted training at sea: using a turbo trainer in rough conditions, short runs in port, and prioritising key sessions.
Developed fueling and pacing strategies that helped him ride and run within himself on race day.

Stayed calm during preparation and raceday, and why that mattered more than perfect training.
