Sunday Sippers EP 103 - Ironman Australia 2024 Preview
7 days away from our Debut at the Ironman Distance has provided many talking points for this race preview. It has been a lot of build up for this day and today we discuss all aspects of our prep. We discuss from the moment we decided to do an Iron Man back in early 2023 and then the process we went on from there. We detail our prep and the differences of our ‘building’ to ‘peaking’ phases and what we both learnt and found out about ourselves through there. We answer many of the questions sent through to us from the fans, talk about potential goals for the IM and end of some grateful’s - which there were many. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey and we are excited to put all our hard work to the test come next Sunday

Listen in as we recap the weekend down at Huskisson for the Ultimate (70.3) triathlon we completed. As part of our journey towards the Port Macquarie Iron Man in May, we had this great event to knock on its head. For both of us, the longest distance we have completed in the triathlon game & we were excited to take on the challenge along with gaining some valuable racing experience. Both men executed their race plans successfully and were happy with the results, after a long 6 months of training it was nice to break it up with a race day event as good as Husky’s. We break down each leg, things we learnt and looking ahead in episode 96.

Sunday Sippers EP 083 - Cya Deano
LATER BO. BON VOYAGE. SAYONARA SUCKER. This week we welcome back Sippers prodigal son Dean Medved (also son of Glenn Lazarus). The big fella is leaving the nations capital for some novacastrian action (lattes and tattoos soon). To celebrate, or commemorate, we decided to draft our favourite things about Canberra. Some strong picks by Dean and Butz but John was left scratching his bald head at his own decisions as he failed to shine in the spotlight. Deans been a huge part of the Sippers Faithful (tm) since day dot so we here at HQ would like to wish him all the best on his future endeavours. The red nut will forever have a spot on the couch for a yarn. BIG THINGS COMING.

Another Tuesday morning episode release, I know what you're thinking "may as well change the name of the podcast and rebrand". Well no, because Sunday is the day we get the fk after it in one way or another and sometimes that pushes the poddy back a day, so bear with us. This Sunday was no different with Butzy competing in the Huskisson Triathlon. We go over the details of a cracking weekend along with the introduction of a new weekly segment that will get the brain ticking. We were stoked to have Deano make his return behind the mic and as per usual he killed it. Always grateful for the Sippers faithful xx
