Shock news rocks the crew in the intro to start off this weeks episode of Road To Oceanside. After that the boys get stuck into their training weeks as always and then finish the show off by discussing the Norwegians and going deeper into the big announcement that was made to start the show.

Fred gives us the secrets you need in training to ride well over Ironman 70.3 and Ironman distance as well as giving the specifics of how you should be doing your ride intervals to maximise them. He tells us the #1 mistake he thinks everyone makes in their training and we discuss volume vs intensity. We then get educated on how to train for running as a triathlete with run session specifics, the marathon vs half marathon training differences, brick sessions and treadmill training vs outdoor training. Then we discuss his favourite athlete, who the 20m draft rule will help and hurt, who is the athlete to watch in 2026 and lots of other general triathlon chat!

We are getting towards the pointy end of the journey to Oceanside 70.3 and this week Justin delivers some crazy power on the bike and big swim sessions, Jackson is doing bigger volume and more impressive training and Ari hits 30 hours for the second time this season and executes a near perfect week. The boys also go over the scheduling of their weeks and try to give each other advice on how they could improve it.

After winning his second Ironman 70.3 World Championship Jelle Geens joins the podcast to give all the details about his training in the lead up to the race. After listening to this you can copy 99% of what he did in your own training or just get an appreciation for what he did. Jack also talks to Jelle about the rest of his 2025 season and plans for 2026.
