{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"RIM Waffle","slug":"rimwaffle","podcastDescription":"

A middle aged man's journey of training for an Ironman competition from zero.

Welcome to The RIM Waffle Podcast, where two cousins take on one epic challenge: Ironman Wales.

Join Dave (“The Rusty Iron Man”) and Cliff (ex-Grenadier Guard and Ironman veteran) as they train, test, and waffle their way through a year of sweat, setbacks, and serious endurance… with a lot of laughs in between.

Expect honest chat, expert guests, product testing, and plenty of midlife chaos - all fuelled by coffee, cow-print, and questionable life choices.

Because if you can’t laugh while suffering through the ultimate Triathlon, when can you?

Follow the journey from Rusty to Ironman.

In this fully unscripted episode Cliff is back on the couch to chat to Dave about how the start of both their journeys are going. From recaps, to training updates, plans and rusty bikes. Cliff guides Dave on how to bake the cake of success - beware, the cousins let their hair down, so this cake may contains nuts and the episode may contain a bit of swearing!
