First race of 2025 in the books! 📏 70k / 43.6 mi ↗️ 3,400m / 11,500 ft 🏆 6th overall 🕖 7:58:00 Improved my PB on this course by over 45 minutes! Felt great right from the start and was able to hang at the end of the front pack. Focused on my fueling strategy taking in 80-90g of carbs each hour. I was able to run a consistent race and managed to slowly but steady move up in the rankings. First aid station I was in 13th and then took over one by one to end up in 6th at the 50k mark. I was able to defend 6th with 10 seconds to 7th place in the end! Super happy with my race and the result getting in a top 10 spot in my last race before turning 40 😊 On to the next one!

@lucasaganronald Yeah, no brainer in my opinion. There are a lot of great athletes and performances in 2025. But Pogi for sure earned the title

This guy won the Tour de France, became the World Champ, first rider ever to do back-to-back double, podiumed every single monument so far… still not enough for the Laureus Sportsman of the year 2025 award. Last Olympic year it went to Duplantis, this year it should finally go to Pogačar in my opinion. What do you think? 📷: Filip Bezděk #Kigali2025

@lucasaganronald @pipecano_photo Great racing!

What a day we had yesterday 😍 📷: @pipecano_photo #Kigali2025

@lucasaganronald Amazing it was!

Thank you Rwanda for a beautiful World Championships 🇷🇼❤️ #Kigali2025

Back on the trails

@lucasaganronald I agree. Didn’t expect that. Good for him for sure.

I think Tom Pidcock has officially shaken off his “title” of being the most overrated rider in the peloton with this Vuelta ride… So gets that title now? 🤭 #LaVuelta25 📷: davidrojas.studioIG

@UltraRunner26 Congrats Danny!

1st Place in the Backyard Ultra! Happy to take 1st but really bummed the field fell off so fast at night. Body felt really good and had 120+ miles easily this year. Thanks for all the support as always.

@VelonCC Probably he’s going to get it

Pogačar wants to add the TT title to his palmarès 😮🌈 Tadej Pogačar will compete in both the road race and the time trial at the upcoming world championships in Rwanda as he looks to add to his 2024 road title. 📸 Sprint Cycling

@lucasaganronald One can see the watts he‘s pushing. Great shot

What a photo… Tom Pidcock 💥 📷: q36.5 #LaVuelta25

@iRunFar Too bad 😩

2025 Sierre-Zinal & OCC women's champ, Joyline Chepngeno, has received a doping sanction after failing an in-competition drug test at Sierre-Zinal. Caroline Kimutai, who took 2nd on the day, is declared champ. What we know so far: irunfar.com/joyline-chepng…

@daniellloyd1 Jep, same here

I really feel for the Vuelta organisation. At this point, I've lost almost all interest in the race, and I'm sure many others feel the same, but it's not their fault at all. #LaVuelta25

@GeraintThomas86 Congrats on that career champ!

I don’t really have any words right now. But, if you were in Cardiff today… Cheers 🍾❤️

@lucasaganronald Quite the career. Good bye champ @GeraintThomas86

It’s over 🥲 Geraint Thomas will retire today as a professional cyclist. What a career: 💛 Tour de France overall 🥇🥇🥇 3 Tour de France stage wins 🥈 Giro d’Italia overall podium 🏆 Criterium du Dauphine 🏆 Tour de Suisse 🏆 Paris Nice 🏆 Tour de Romandie 🏆 E3 Saxo Classic 🇬🇧 National Champion ITT & RR 🥇🥇 2-time Olympic gold medallist in team pursuit (track) 🌈🌈🌈 3-time World champion in team pursuit (track) Thank you for everything G. Happy to see you staying in cycling in other role. 🫂

Ultra running is simple: eat, run, repeat, don’t quit. And maybe cry a little.

The longer the race, the more it’s about problem-solving than fitness. Life’s the same way.

Mile 1: “I should have stayed in bed.” Mile 10: “I’m unstoppable.” The mind is funny—keep running.

@lucasaganronald It’s gonna be a crucial GC day!

What a stage today… Almeida vs. Vingegaard. Can Almeida bring time back on Jonas? #LaVuelta25

Running teaches patience. Progress isn’t linear. Trust the process.
