This week on Another Triathlon Podcast, we're keeping the Ironman Texas energy rolling with a special guest who stood on the podium and brought the bison vibes all weekend long—Rudy von Berg joins us for a deep dive into his racing roots, Ironman Texas performance, and everything going on in the 2024 season.

Rudy shares what it was like growing up immersed in triathlon with his legendary dad, how he made the strategic shift from ITU to long course, and what it's really like to be one of the most consistent pros on the circuit today. We also talk about the decision to return the Ironman World Championship to a single-day race in Kona for 2026—and get Rudy’s unfiltered thoughts on what it means for the sport.

💬 Topics we cover: 

✔️ Rudy’s early days following his dad around Kona and Austria
✔️ His path from ITU to Ironman—and why he waited until age 28 to debut
✔️ Race breakdown from his 3rd place at Ironman Texas
✔️ Bison mindset, GPS chafing, and post-race snacks
✔️ Transparency with race data and why Rudy shares his power numbers
✔️ Balancing a full Ironman season and the Ironman Pro Series
