I met Leon Chevalier when sat next to him on the flight back from Kona, Hawaii, after he had finished 7th in the Ironman World Championships (in a year where he had also completed his Masters in Chemical Engineering). Leon has been racing long distance triathlons across the world since 2021, and has already won Ironman Mallorca and Embrunman, came 3rd at Ironman UK and rose from 420th to 22nd in the PTO World Rankings. He is most definitely one to watch among the rising stars of the long course, so Claire and I wanted to chat to him about the incredible start to his professional career, what Chemical Engineering can teach us in triathlon, the unexpected pressures of turning pro and how he can use the sport to create positive change in the world.www.leonchevalier.comLeon on Instagram: @l.chevalierClaire Fudge4thdiscipline.comInstagram: @the4thdisciplineThis episode was sponsored by 33Fuel.com - click here for discount on your purchase.This episode was sponsored by The Trusted Team and 4th Discipline
