Now two years ago, Kristian Blummenfelt and Gustav Iden went viral with a brick session they completed less than a week before the Ironman World Championships on Kona: they cycled 100 kilometers at an average pace of over 37 kilometers per hour and then did another 40-kilometer ‘endurance run’ at a pace of 3:46 minutes per kilometer. Sam Laidlow is now making jokes about that workout.
Sam Laidlow biked nearly 189 kilometers at a pace ‘faster than the Norwegians’ and then ran 42.3 kilometers in 3:55 minutes per kilometer and in ‘zone 0’. “Haters will say this is photoshopped,” it sounds to clarify the joke.
