He won the bike in Nice it seemed to work out there and it seemed to work out ok in 2022 Kona.

[@LoneTreeMilsim]

Thanks for getting these highlights up so quick!

[@drdanyu]

I guess we are going back to the German method 😂

[@siitan83]

Going to lange method...its mind-boggling, what he did and how he did it

[@mobystwin]

Haha yea

[@giorgospanagiotou6647]

The Norwegians don’t train for Ironman

[@garyleem2000]

The Norwegian method didn’t work. The Canadian method was disappointing. The French method is just crazy!

[@paolointhenight]

Haha, brilliant comment!! They sure did KB dirty with the slow mo shots of him projectile vomiting against the backdrop of the intense racing music.

[@siitan83]

Excuse my comments, but what lange just did , and how he did it was crazy .. hes the goat.. the kona goat.. he was on a sunday jog while others were dying.

[@PlatNmRex]

There is so much recency bias these days. People throwing around ‘Goat’ aimlessly. Mark Allen and Dave Scott both won 6 Kona titles.

[@siitan83]

@@PlatNmRex yeah... True, but at what times did they win those?.. and the sport was so young and competition scarce. lange has the course record.. anyway pardon me.. hes my kona goat

[@tjtennisicmroll2k]

@@siitan83 pretty easy to set the course record when you can save 30% of your energy the whole bike ride by drafting 10 feet from the back wheel while going almost 40mph

[@BillBrinkop]

@@PlatNmRexexactly, nowadays whenever someone is winning they are automatically the “goat” 😂. Big picture people, take a step back and have some respect for history. Statistically speaking, the goat will always be in the past not the present.

Wow what a Kona Ironman race - epic race! Thanks for this footage Travis. I watch it a few times. Great year of Triathlons.

[@insiderugbywithmark]

Have been watching Kona for 40 years. Have never seen so many destroyed souls after that run yesterday. Carnage prevailed.

[@thedeadlyexplorers7514]

So many got caught up with pretty bike numbers. The likes of wurfy, Lange, Ditlev and Rudy all were patient and executed really well

[@spencerj6557]

@@thedeadlyexplorers7514Lange even said that if one of those guys won then props to them, he wasn’t going to win anyway. Ran his race and ended up the victor because of it. Laidlow broke a look of racers today Just ran his race

[@dwahearn]

What a day. So happy for Patrick

[@abeybaby29]

Thanks for putting this together. Appreciate it!

[@richardhudson4649]

Sam Laidlow beat his own Kona bike course record by ~8 minutes. He paid for those 8 minutes with 30 minutes on the run. I hope he got a huge sponsor bonus for the sub 4hr bike course record.

[@SeanStephensen]

We've recently seen the swim record and the bike record both get smashed by people who sacrificed the rest of their race to get that record. I hope that someday soon a super runner will sabotage their early race and drop a crazy run split lol

[@tjtennisicmroll2k]

He would have finished first still if everyone behind him wasn't drafting the whole race

[@Jm-Gonz]

Pacing is everything, truly knowing your body inside and out, saving watts by riding at the back of the front pack is great strategy, and understanding that this race is almost always won and lost on the back half of the marathon

[@PHC24]

He and patrick used the same bike, both sponsored by canyon. LOL

Absolutely!

[@astora85]

Such a cool highlight video!! Thank you - goosepumps ! What all the athletes accomplished wow!!!

[@BigStevo1]

That was epic! Patrick Lange was the only one that the Kona course didn’t destroy. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many amazing athletes humbled by the heat and humidity as well as the tempo of the powerhouse swim/cycle combination of Sam Laidlow. Great race!

[@yukim9466]

Very good editing of the race! It gives me a good sense of the race in T1, specially. Thank you for posting this. Love your work!

So awesome to wake up to the highlights of this epic event and re-live it all again! Felt so bad for Sam, but what a turn of events! Patrick Lange is the man! Thanks for staying up all night to compile this amazing footage! I ❤ The Daily Tri! 😊

Epic cut!!!

[@michaelr.8402]

It's a razor's edge ride, as we clearly saw yesterday. Overhyped stuff always goes wrong - sooner or later. I think, sustainable experience and intelligence is a big part of the puzzle and an important component of success...not just in our sport. BIG Congrats, Patrick!

[@lowerthomas]

Great recap! Thank you for the excellent video!

100%!!

I was there & witnessed Patrick crossed the finished line, & he did looked like he was still fresh and could go for another round.

[@elka2palka]

This race was 🔥🔥🔥 and a nailbiter 😂

[@Wagom13]

Awesome video. Clearly the only on NOT drafting was Laidlow. Lol. Looked like ITU or Supertri. ???

[@Frakc_official]

When you look at the top 10 you can clearly see the value of experience and a belief in your self that is built upon that experience rather than media hype.

[@michaelr.8402]

[@januarypasture]

Will there be a video for the women's highlights? Haven't yet found a single KZbin video for the women competitors in Kona.

[@samholder196]

Lange the Terminator

[@MoldovaTours]

Patrick Lange might be the GOAT that everyone in the sport had overlooked. I cannot see this record be beaten anytime soon. Laidlow cannot run fast in Kona after destroying the field in the swim and bike sections. KB has shown his limits both in Paris and Kona. Frodeno's record in 2019 was 7h52. Technology has improved but not by 16 mn.. Gustav Iden has not confirmed his brilliant talent and promises. Mark Allen and Dave Scott are from another era etc...

[@tjtennisicmroll2k]

dumb take

[@barfy-man3628]

Ironman damaged its brand by splitting men’s and women’s races and moving the Kona event. They need to revamp their PR, especially since losing NBC coverage and Mike Reilly’s iconic announcements.

[@TheOfficialStaxx]

If only the athletes could show more respect while training

[@gtkona1608]

First, tremendous video. Any way to get more? Second, this was to be my 30th time competing here but a cold/covid forced me to spectate with my wife. She said it best, "Something was wrong. No women." I agree as do my several Kona veteran friends. ONE DAY. ONE RACE.

[@Erin60147]

What place did Christian Blumenfelt and Lionel Sanders get?

[@yesitis1395]

Why anyone thought LS would get near the top 10 is pure insanity. He literally stated that he wasn't going to race, but to "do his best." He's a competitor and decided not to compete.

[@Gardener7]

Lionel was 32nd and Blummenfeld was 34th.

[@xtrimtri2002]

Anyone knows the title of the epic music in the video? Thanks!

[@andrewmetcalfe9898]

Swim course record broken by Sam Askey-Doran (age grouper) 45:43 Bike course record broken by Sam Laidlow 3:57:22 Course record Patrick Lange 7:35:53 (1:19 off run record) Like what? This sport is getting kinda stupid. 🤯

[@nielsflottie1364]

The amount of drafting is just insane. 20m at least like pto... This is just ridicoulus...

[@KG780c]

50 participants vs 20 participants. big difference

[@Gardener7]

You can't fit 30 guys in a row at 20m. That would be a 600m long train. How could anyone overtake? 12m is fine. You hardly get any benefit at that distance. It's the motorbikes that give far more benefit.

[@yannickmartin7032]

The drafting was massive

[@juicyfruit100x]

Wow, excellent recap video with some epic music 😁

[@stcezaire06]

Patrick Lange : big progress in cycling and for the run just run as he can do , Sam the best for the bike but run ????

[@joseseptien]

The Norwegian method, how to lose nutrition through the race 😮

[@DittersGustav]

They race in a peloton now?

[@joseseptien]

The Norwegian method, better not to draft or you'll take my nutrition

[@MarceloG..]

Too funny and nasty at the same time! haha!

[@markbeuerman]

[@letsrelaxwithtexts2114]

why there are running so slow? legit question? it was hot?

[@elka2palka]

Hot, humid, some got stung by jellyfish and many of them overbiked trying to catch up with Sam.

[@davidlutter6008]

How many penalties were handed out during the bike? Several times it looked like you could call at least six or seven. .

[@verideaux3250]

IM new main sponsor should be DraftKings based on that awful bike footage. 20m and race ranger, it’s not that difficult

[@yesitis1395]

It's more difficult than you'd expect. Too much to write here, but unless your race is limited to 20 people, there's just not enough room for an IM bc of the Age Group race component.

He told us, he won it at Mile 5 in the run when his late mum was with him. Goosebumps.

Of course ita all 3 disciplines. But usually he's minutes behind on the swim. This time he was 7 seconds behind. That's huge for him.

[@ulruru2]

I was disappointed! Too many blowups. Many didnt do their race trying to follow others in the bike. I think they lost the respect to the race. Time to go back to basics?
