The shorter the race format, the more a weak swimmer is exposed. It’s truly insane Lionel stays in the mix with these short distance specialists. Incredible!!

[@trepidati0n533]

But this probably the key to him being a better long distance racer. All of the consistent greats the past decade have come from short course.....and that isn't a fluke.

[@garyvoysey4831]

I’d love to be as bad at swimming as Lionel is.

[@jedielnunes1328]

@@W.C. "isnt good" is relative. The guy came in 8th at the olympics.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

@Trepidati0n that's typical endurance sport progression. Going down in distance and leaving long distance isn't. Also, if the glory and money were the same in short course, many would never leave until they lose their speed to the point that their body makes them move up in distance. That's something that's terribly common in track and field.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

@@jedielnunes1328 WC must have finished 7th

[@yellowboat8773]

He's just a beast. It must take so much courage knowing you have all this media around you, and knowing you are not going to win, but still get out there and be humble about racing.

[@markscott2259]

Hahahaha! Ladies winner said “not sure if everyone is here for us or Lionel”. Thanks for sharing the experience!!!

[@jacobreesmontgomery]

everyone asking and talking about lionel, Dixon’s entire interview was talking about Lionel 💀😂😂

[@rodp7803]

Lionel will transcend his training, undoubtedly.👌LFG

[@JarredDaw]

Undoubtedly

[@joshuafoulds8107]

That was epic! I should not have watched this right before going to sleep. Now I just want to get on the trainer and sweat

[@leslie7922]

lionels sub 3min/km sprint is probably still 140bpm heart rate

Everyone: Lionel Sanders Tim Don: Lionel Saunders

[@michellewynveen4584]

Pure Entertainment! I love this ❤. Lionel Way to go!🎉

[@jamieblack9349]

You are an absolute legend mate! Watching you compete is always exciting. I will watch what ever sport you do!

[@billpicciano5341]

Probably one of the best races to watch , never would have thought but always making your fans proud , thanks Lionel and keep going !!!

[@Tethysmeer]

Amazing. Shows how versatile Lionel is.

[@allenvilleendurance]

“I think we could see vomit” my new favorite line! “I hope we do!” Second

[@markwt2680]

Awesome effort - best biker, top level runner (in the mix) but oh the swim. For a world class long distance Triathlete to do that it a world class field of short course sprinters was super impressive.💪👍🏻

[@wimvdputte]

This is man is just.......... whatever you wanna call it.... incredible.

[@jiujitsuboxer]

They need a jumbo tron that shows where everyone is.

[@Masteroiece]

Watched the finals live and I was up from my seat the whole time Lionel.

[@1wiesehoefer1]

This guy has power and no fear for a competition where he can not win 😮😊❤

[@szymonmodelski149]

Awesome Lionel!!! You are THE MAN!

[@Rolf1702]

Impressive Lionel. Didn't´t thought that he could keep up with the specialists. Great!!

[@maxou_th]

Absolute and utter inspiration

[@ronanvandervaart232]

He might not be the Best swimmer, but Lionel is the toughest athlete in the sport undoubtedly 🦁

[@karlosfandango6637]

Is anyone else racing? I'm just enjoying the Sanders show. Media are fixated on him. Legend.

[@robertnastasi8643]

Amazing! Inspirational! You killed it!

[@EL-fv2np]

Legend! So proud of you Lionel!

[@michaelsesler1158]

Well done.

[@TheLadc5]

Man, if Lionel Sanders could improve his swim by even a little, he would basically be the Mike Tyson of this sport. Dude is a beast on the run and bike.

[@janfolkerts7342]

Yess! Well done Lionel!

[@sambrown1779]

That's friggin awesome man 💪😎✌️

[@sinancetinkaya]

Colonel Sanders 👍

[@neallund7693]

Way to go, Lionel.

[@askhatashimov7250]

Absolutely smashed that bike and run course!!!

[@aarondcmedia9585]

How the heck did you manage to film this? I would have thought broadcast would prevent you, so glad you could though.

[@TalbotCoxMedia]

They only broadcast the finals so they did not care at all. :)

You are so inspiring

[@Bukoe]

Best duathlete in the world right here =) .. You did amazing it was good entertainment and I would for sure love to see you play with this again if it fits in and dont mess up any real goals =)

[@sheltonmorris2536]

Wow. This guy is a real beast.

Amazing work!

Lionel! Haven't seen you in a while! I hope you're putting your all into it!

If only the finals was 4 stages he could have been on the podium

[@rylanrussell9595]

So awesome!

[@JCNegri]

Pure Respect

[@shavas100]

I think it looks like Lionel swims with his upper body/head way to high in the water compared to everyone else. I'm not a swimmer but can anyone else comment on that? Could that be a reason why he is so slow in the water?

[@HidayatFamily2.8]

Amazing

[@zacharygodfrey6781]

Beast brotha!

[@mpageaustin]

Insane!

[@matthewshanklin2296]

Thank you for commentating like real people. Hopefully Ironman catches on.

[@aligferrari]

Yeah, wasn't that fun for a change.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

Ironman's issue is pricing for entry fees and the cost of traveling to events, not how it's covered on KZbin.

[@armandocanoespinoza3414]

What treadmills r they using?

[@raze0ver]

LS is an incredible “dual athlete” thats for sure. why he can’t just fix his swim with all his resources? he did swim 1min/100m pace in his swim sessions though

[@aarondcmedia9585]

Watching the swim is so nerve-wracking eesh.

[@benji1681]

Fuck yeah Lionel big effort

[@CryptoJay]

BOOM!

[@HarryTzianakisTheGodOfSpeed]

Theses guys in the live chat talking like you are handy capped ha ha ha take swimming lessens they say . like dude just watch and shut your trap.

[@fromsamuraitoscience7184]

Machine 💪

[@Nrk4u]

I don’t know about you but I would be doing breathing exercise to get as much oxygen into my muscles prior to jumping in the water

[@geoffsanford16]

That’s not the problem, more so the acute accumulation of carbon dioxide and lactic acid.

[@larsnatus]

What’s Lionel’s swim pace?

"Stop calling him Colonel."

What brand of shoe is Lionel running in these days?

[@robbyd3892]

Asics

[@kriterium123]

Almost looks natural

[@williamwyn]

Why the hell does Lionels trainers not have the tag at the back to help him get them on faster? Such a bad design.

[@CG-99]

Jeez the commentators are so annoying 🙄

[@EspenSkaufel]

Move along, nothing to see here....

[@aj8580]

Why so negative? Just be happy. Life is short

[@prof_Pomari]

I mean they pushed his presence a lot, I am sure this kind of event benefits from having an athlete with big media following in it. Plus it's not like they handed him a medal or anything, he still has to go through the finals. I see your point but hey the event needs Lionel too

[@sansooilegal]

Olimpic medalist? I think Henri Schoeman is there also… and the show is important for the sport, Lionel knows how to entertain 👍

[@EspenSkaufel]

@@aj8580 not intended to be negative, just saying it as I see it. If you are a casual viewer that was strange. The camera is only focusing on the slowest swimmer. And no one even said who won...

[@EspenSkaufel]

@@prof_Pomari you are probably right, but that was the stranges camera focus in any race ever. The guy so slow you cant see any of the other swimmers leave to pool. I do not intended to be negative, but it was just not what I expected.
