Like a Rolling Stone. Fitspeek 181 – reintroducing Simon Whitfield

This week on the show we have another person originally from Kingston, Ontario. And unlike Mitchell Kirby, this guy has kinda already done everything there is to do in triathlon.

There was this moment (and the paycheque), there was that Olympic gold medal back in 2000, and there was that quarter-century-long career in swim bike run.

But Whitfield isn’t a WAS guy, he’s more of an IS guy, and as you’ll find out in the show, more of a WHAT’S NEXT guy. And while the latter is still being written, the IS consists of salt water and fresh air.

It seems to me sunrises give Simon more pleasure than sunsets but when you ARE a triathlon legend there’s gotta be some baggage you take along with you for the rest of your life’s journey. We deal with that stuff in the interview. We also talk about how ex-Olympians FEED themselves (or more importantly to Simon, sleep well)

Finally, in the show Simon goes Tri-Yoda and offers up insightful advice for today’s pro-triathletes and age-groupers. The advice involves what to do with your cell phone and what to bring to the pool, the next time you go. Hear the show now, by pressing that play button below.

It’s aero, it’s adjustable, it’s available. It’s the SP, the black missile disguised as a tri-bike by A-Squared. To ride it is to love it. Take it from one who knows! Click on the bike to check for available builds and prices.
