Listen Later

In today’s podcast we’re speaking with one of the Britain’s best known triathletes.  A man who has experienced the absolute highs - 3 Olympic Games, 4 world titles, the fastest official, accurate Ironman in history, as well as absolute lows.  Breaking his neck and wearing a Halo device for 3 months. 

Congratulations if you have worked out that my guest is none other than Mr. Tim Don.  As you will discover as we chat, Tim is an all-round, nice guy and such a humble person.

In this episode I introduce a new warm up quiz which all future guests will be asked to participate in.  Tim was the first and among other things you’ll find out:

  • Which actor he would choose to play himself, if they made a film about his life
  • One superpower he would love to have
  • His favourite kids movie
  • Which famous person he would most like to have drinks with
  • We also have a more conventional chat about his triathlon life and you’ll discover:

    • Which victory was his biggest to date
  • What it felt like to break that Ironman World record in Brazil
  • Why he is still chasing the ‘perfect race’
  • What happened immediately after that bike accident in Kona
  • The amazing experience of Patagonaman 
  • If you haven’t already watched it, please take 30 minutes to watch “the Man in the Halo” right HERE
