Tell the story, show the dynamics instead of a fixed camera on the leading athlete's back. This also applies to women's race. Daniela was running all by herself and so far ahead.

I watched this video this morning before a race and then went out and ran a half marathon PR. Coincidence? I think not! Thanks for the inspiration Lionel and Sam!

Funny he said “when races are won by 20 seconds” and this was even far closer than that.

The emotion, the mutual respect. This is the triathlon the world wants to see. This footage is more real and captivating than the Kona feeds. You can almost feel it, it's so "right there". Kudos fellas. Looking forward to more of this from you warriors. I'm stunned

That was truly the most amazing proof of determination i have seen in sport. It’s a shame that this type of world class athletism is not showcased in the major sport news. Hats off to Lionel for being a god damn legend and inspiration to all of us. That a was an amazing race to watch. Shout out to The Big Unit, he’s the hungriest young gun out there!!
