The Full Distance
Go The Full Distance is the podcast for triathletes who live and breathe Ironman.

If you're chasing finish lines, weekly long runs, and the kind of pain that makes you feel alive… you'll feel right at home here.
New episodes weekly. Swim. Bike. Run. Talk sh*t. Repeat.

#Ep 6 | Young Guns, Banned Shoes & Cam’s Crazy Training Blocks
In Episode 5 of The Full Distance Podcast, Matt and Dave dive into the wildest stat of the year: Ironman sign-ups are exploding, and nearly 40% of new athletes are under 30. What does that mean for the sport? Is it a blessing or a curse for longevity?
From there it’s straight into controversy — Hayden Wilde’s banned shoes, whether the drama even matters, and why he deserves more credit for his comeback than criticism. Plus, the boys can’t help but fanboy over Cam Wurf’s monster training weeks and debate how long the 42-year-old can keep swinging with the best.
