20+ Year Pro Triathlete John Hirsch, Last Skier Standing 2026 Reaction - Ep.23

This week I got to interview John Hirsch. John raced triathlons as a pro for over 20 years. He collected four Top 10 Pro Ironman finishes and competed at the notorious Kona Ironman World Championships. He had a ton of cool stories and great insights into triathlon and endurance training. Outside of triathlons he competed in trail races, grabbing three wins at the Spartan Ultra Beast Masters World Championships. Oh and he also still rips on trail, he was one of the only finishers at the @spartan Peak Snow Devil Snowshoe race from this January. A brutal winter race (snow shoes required) with cut offs that DNF most participants. He gave us the scoop into those races. Give it a listen.Before the interview, I gave my quick Last Skier Standing 2026 reaction. An epic throw down per usual. I ended the episode with some race results from the TARCtic Frozen Yeti 30 Hour and 15 Mile, BURCS Treadmill Marathon & Frozen Folly Virtual 50k and the new Mount Monadnock Heartbreaker race. I was actually on course for this race getting some Monadnock summits in for myself so got to see some crushers first hand. Threw in a trail report for White Arrow and White Dot as well (very good conditions).HOW TO FIND JOHN:INSTAGRAM: @thedeerrunnerFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/john.hirsch.75STRONG LIKE BULL FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/stronglikebullcampsJOHN HIRSCH COACHING: https://www.stronglikebulltraining.com/coaching 0:00 Intro3:55 Last Skier Standing 2026 Reaction11:40 John Hirsch Interview1:47:23 TARCtic Frozen Yeti 30 Hour and 15 Mile Results1:49:15 BURCS Treadmill Marathon & Frozen Folly Virtual 50K Results1:52:55 Mount Monadnock Trail Report 2.14.261:54:05 Mount Monadnock Heartbreaker Race ResultsINSTAGRAMhttps://www.instagram.com/runmountainpeaks/YOUTUBEhttps://www.youtube.com/@runmountainpeaksFREE ENDURANCE TRAINING GUIDEhttps://www.runmountainpeaks.com/run-coaching#TrailRunning #Mountains #WhiteMountainNationalForest
