The Freetrail Podcast with Dylan Bowman

Kilian Jornet | Zegama, Sierre-Zinal, & Alpine Connections


Listen Later

Kilian Jornet is one of the greatest athletes of all-time across all sports. His athletic accomplishments are staggering across trail running, alpinism, and ski mountaineering. This season he won Zegama for the 11th time, Sierre Zinal for the 10th time, and then completed a 1200km traverse of the Alps -- a personal project he called "Alpine Connections." 

 

Some topics we discuss:

 

  • Kilian and Emelie’s expanding family and lessons from parenthood
  • The value of exposing kids to a life of adventure
  • Zegama, a race that Kilan has now won 11 times over 17 years
  • Kilian’s training, including a fascinating discussion around belief, circadian rhythm and stress management
  • Sierre Zinal, exploring how we maintain high performance as we get older
  • Alpine Connections, talking about the vision, the complexities, flow state experiences, and artistic influences inherent in the project.
  • Kilian's future goals including some exciting potential races in 2025
  • A lot more
