#IMWC2025 — With Paul @kayeman Kaye and Joann @joannemurphy_ Murphy at last night’s Aloha Reception.

I'd already indicated I'd love to cross the finish line — my comeback after 25 years—and celebrate with the voice of Paul Kaye! Unfortunately, my DNS prevented that from happening! I immediately made an appointment for Ironman KALMAR - August 15, 2026. Thks -SEE YOU🥰 @kayeman

In 2016 Niki Lauda was honoured with the Laureus Lifetime Achievement Award and his acceptance speech said everything about him ❤️🗣️

The Gospel Of Spin: Why People Choose Silly Beliefs Over Plain Reality Watching people insist that Trump and Musk are “strategically fighting” in some galactic-level game of “5D chess” reminded me of a deeper truth: people don’t just believe what’s true, they believe what feels reassuring. That’s the real religion of our age. We’ve moved beyond facts. Now, what matters is whether something affirms your worldview, your bias, your need to feel in control. Reality is optional, whilst narrative is everything. And in this strange new faith, spin isn’t deception. It’s doctrine. It’s mandatory. Take the Trump vs Musk fallout. What is clearly a real, ugly and bitter power struggle, triggered by policy differences, personal jabs, and threats of cutting billion-dollar contracts, and clashing egos, is desperately being recast by loyalists as a genius-level illusion. “It’s all part of the plan,” they say. “They’re playing 5D chess.” Really? When both men already hold all the cards. One as President, the other the richest man alive, why stoop to theatrical trickery to make a point? If this is strategy, it’s indistinguishable from chaotic dysfunction. The truth is more mundane and more dangerous: we’re living in an era where the crowd would rather believe in a clever lie than accept a simple, uncomfortable truth. Because belief is easier. Belief requires no proof, only just conviction. And social media, that great digital altar, rewards conviction with likes, retweets, and their dopamine highs. The more outlandish the take, the more divine the attention. And so, the new Gospel spreads: * That every public feud is a strategic move. * That every setback is secretly a setup. * That every betrayal is a breadcrumb to some greater plan. No room for plain idiocy. No tolerance for ambiguity. Just a desperate clinging to the illusion of control. When we choose comforting lies over confronting truth, we don’t just distort reality, we also abdicate responsibility. We become easier to manipulate, quicker to divide, and increasingly blind to what’s right in front of us. The Musk vs Trump clash isn’t a show. It’s not a plot twist. It’s two massive egos colliding in full public view. And if we can’t call this circus what it is, we’ve lost more than the truth, we’ve lost our grip on reality itself. #5DChessFarce

Ironman is going back to its roots. 🌺 Starting in 2026, the Ironman World Championship returns to one day of racing in Kona. Why the reversal, and what does this mean for the pro women's race? We sat down with Ironman’s CEO to get the full story. 👀👇 bit.ly/3Gx6t3z

No stranger to the announcing team Paul takes on the race for the first time in a while. BRILLIANT WORK 👍

What’s next? ✂️
