A podcast to help you Train Smarter and Race Faster. Hosted by expert Triathlon coach, Australian Ironman Champion and 15 x Aus Age group Champion Gerard Donnelly, and his son, multiple Triathlon + Cycling Aus Age Group Champion Jordy Donnelly.

Fresh off her best performance yet at the 2025 Giro D’Italia, Sarah Gigante joins us to unpack the race that crowned her 3rd on GC AND Queen of the Mountains, with two epic stage wins.

We dive into:
•⁠  ⁠Her decisive moves against Elisa Longo Borghini
•⁠  ⁠The brutal power data: Holding over 300W to get away on the climb — that’s 6W/kg!
•⁠  ⁠The build-up, the setbacks, and the training it took to get here
•⁠  ⁠Nutrition, race tactics, and how she prepped for the key stages
•⁠  ⁠The moment she went from 6th to 3rd overall

From dominating the home Willunga Hill to the podium of a Grand Tour — Sarah’s climb has been relentless.

Don’t miss this episode with one of the most exciting Aussie riders in the women’s pro peloton.
