In this episode of The Everyday Ironman Podcast, we welcome Luis Feitoza, a Brazilian native from Rio and professor of veterinary medicine at Kansas State University. Growing up around the water gave Luis a natural connection to swimming, but it wasn’t until recently—after taking up biking and then running less than a year ago—that he found his way into triathlon.
Luis shares his journey to Ironman 70.3 Sandusky, including the detailed race plan his coach prepared and how he executed it on race day. Along the way, he clears up some Hollywood myths about life in Rio as depicted in Fast Five, and we dive into how adding to his family will shape his future training. Mike also reflects with a “learn from my mistakes” story that every Age Group Athlete can relate to.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
