He just challenged me (and a few others) on his instagram story to see how long we could hold 400w lol

Up to this point I've assumed he's a very elaborate troll but I'm just not sure now...

if sam weighs 165lbs then he did 5.3 watts/kg for 77 minutes. Lionel was something like 5.1 for 76 minutes.

i could be wrong, but generally if a pro cyclist is pushing 6.5 watts/kg for sustained periods like that (at the end of stages) that is a red flag. so say a top current (clean) climber could do 6-6.3ish watts/kg for lemmon. i can't do that math, but probably in the neighborhood of 70 minutes? would be fun to model it out, i don't have the know-how or patience to go beyond this.

6.5 for 75 minutes = doping.

now sam is basically comparing his ability to hold 5 watts/kg to eliud's 2hr breaking run and calling his challenge the kipchoge challenge.

it keeps getting better.

Would love to see McNulty have a go at it. He probably weighs 20 pounds less than Sam or Lionel, and not much of a stretch to envision him doing 400w for that entire climb.

This. He lives in Phoenix. He mentioned in his strava he has nothing else better to do than KOM trolling. Maybe he'll give it a go.

Lionel's says 29.4 miles, this one is 21+, are they different records? I'm not a strava person, so dont really know how these things go. Did they do the same ride, was this a section record?

From the start at the McDonalds parking lot to the ski hill is 29.x miles.

The KOM section is 21.x miles and that is the climb they are comparing.
