2019 Breakfast with Bob from Kona: Sebastian Kienle, 3rd Place

[@KingLifeTale]

Such a deep appreciation for Kienle! Really enjoyed keeping up with his journey this year.

[@element00x]

He has such passion for Triathlon. Kienle will be an awesome coach when he retires and hopefully be around for a long time. Great Race Seb!

[@hossticklemonster103]

One of the best personalities AND talents in Tri! Thanks Sebi! Enjoy a cold one!

[@samholder196]

Kienle has the highest Triathlon IQ -- and the fact that he says he can't find the 10 mins on Jan demonstrates his anxiety about things haha. Great race, Sebi!

[@AntonioOrru21]

He is such a Champ, I like this guy, awesome

[@stefan78able]

Great interview Bob, always lovely watching you and your guest. Sebastian is one of our most liked Triathlete to follow. I do love his honest genuine way in stating his opinion even though he is often enough being censored for it by his managing Director ;) (wife) for it whereas he has to bite on his tongue.

[@bonn1771]

[@carlbyronrodgers]

Very interesting interview.

[@johnnyb1897]

So glad he mentioned Lionel. ✌️🇨🇦

[@kajet666]

Great guy, I was able to talk to him briefly this year - even though he was busy spying on the opponents' gear, he was happy to give this random age grouper some insight. Go Sebi!

[@TheDomLouis]

Awesome athlete ❗ ❗ ❗

[@bjonktfoisper]

Kienle listens well. he is smart and a great champion. he seems content with his hard fought third place . like his analogy of needing ten minutes.

[@SilvioMoraesVlogtrips]

Hahah.. man.. I love this dude! Hahaha .. rock on Sebie!

[@midsfella]

These Germans speak so much sense.... Top Man Sebi

[@hossticklemonster103]

“It’s a fine line between fit and F-d”. Regarding pushing the limits in training and injury... Bob, smh! Lol

[@NMGagne]

Sebi's the man!

[@careywaldie6735]

When he says Wurf did all the work up front what does he mean if you can't draft?

[@bobdown5520]

Set the pace

[@rogerc23]

There is legal drafting which still helps. Which is why the riding ride in a line. Wurf was up from which also means the others can follownhis pace which takes a mental load of you.

[@careywaldie6735]

So being 12 meters behind you can still get a bit of a draft?

[@rogerc23]

@Carey Waldie. Yes a bit especially in strong winds like Kona. Is it 12 meters or 7 meters at Kona I can’t remember? But he SK isn’t focusing on the draft as much as Wurf driving the pack and setting the pace. That would be my opinion. And if you have successive riders like the pack of 5-6 that SL was riding in with Wurf and depending how the wind is moving it would create some draft for sure.

[@onepunchbud1472]

Yeah with holding the in a 12m in a group you can still safe something like 10 watts I think. That is actually not bad. Depends heavily on the wind of course. When its coming from front it is more, from side it's less.

[@robertschuhte9010]

Killer Coconut @6:45?

[@pavanatanaya]

All these years of Ironman and the " more is better" mentality still destroys guys every year. I think about that course swim last Saturday. A hard effort one week away from the big one is contraindicated.

[@heikkisanelma6625]

@LIONELSANDERS HEAR YOUR COACH @SEBIKIENLE! OBEY YOUR COACH! :D

[@le0fonzagoric164]

We want Cam Wurf!!!

[@albo5254]
