After months of battling physical setbacks that left him unable to train seriously for more than a few minutes at a time, few would have predicted Sam Laidlow’s triumphant return to the top of Long Distance triathlon. Yet earlier this month, the Frenchman defied all odds to claim an unexpected and emotional victory at Challenge Roth.
Now, Laidlow has released a compelling, nearly 40-minute documentary that takes fans behind the scenes of his incredible comeback. The docu delves into the struggles he faced leading up to the race, the self-doubt he wrestled with, and the moment everything came together on race day.
More than just a race recap, the documentary offers an honest and intimate look into the mindset, challenges, and resilience of a world-class athlete reclaiming his place among the sport’s elite.
