I Tried to Keep Up With a Pro Triathlete

I challenged a PRO triathlete to a Time Trial and got absolutely demolished. 😅 Kristian Høgenhaug is a professional triathlete racing Ironman and 70.3 at an elite level. I lined up against him in a real TT effort to find out exactly how big the gap is between a serious amateur and a pro — same course, same conditions, no excuses. The result wasn't close. But the real value is in what happened after: a brutally honest breakdown of where I'm losing time, what separates pros from amateurs. If you're an age grouper chasing a sub-9 Ironman, training for a 70.3, or just curious what the real difference is between "fast" and "pro" — this one's for you. ⏱️ In this video: Pro vs amateur Time Trial — full results Real-time power (watts) comparison What separates pros from strong amateurs Kristian's honest advice 🔔 Subscribe for weekly training breakdowns, race builds, and the road to a sub-9 Ironman Copenhagen.
