The Health & Fitness Podcast, By Innerfight

Faris al-Sultan (Arabic: فارس السلطان‎) is a German professional triathlete and the winner of the 2005 Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. Faris al-Sultan is known for his strengths in all three triathlon disciplines. In the running segment, he has a consistent but uncommon form of a long stride and loose arms, described as "looping." In competition, he typically wears a Speedo and half-singlet. His interest in triathlon was inspired by Thomas Hellriegel, a German triathlete. During a recent trip to Dubai Faris gave us some of his time and in doing so not only provoked a number of thoughts for both Tom and I but I hope for you guys too. Enjoy the show.
