Former German professional triathlon couple Lothar and Nicole Leder are the stars of episode 5 of Inside Tri Show’s Road to Roth series with lifejacketskin.com. Lothar was the first person to go sub 8 hours for the iron distance, a feat he accomplished in 1996. In 2003 it was a double win in the Leder household, while Lothar beat Chris McCormack by 3 seconds for victory, Nicole won the women's race too.

The pair have six Roth titles between them and they truly know what it means to win there. They understand the pressure, joy and kudos that comes with competing and racing at Roth for German professionals. These days they still return to Roth every year, but this time it's to support the athletes from around the world who they coach.

In Episode 4 of Inside Tri Show’s Road to Roth series with lifejacketskin.com, we hear from German professional triathlete Jan Stratmann about why he is so excited to make his debut at Challenge Roth.

Jan grew up hoping to be a professional footballer, until a ski accident put an end to his soccer dreams. Although his Dad was into triathlon and did Roth twice, Jan just thought 'he was crazy.' However with his football dreams in tatters, Jan set about trying to learn to walk again via aqua jogging and it turns out the German junior triathlon squad were training in the lane next to him. It was exactly what Jan needed to motivate him to recover from six months on crutches and gave him a new sporting dream. Roll on 2023, with his studies completed, Jan finished 3rd at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships, the perfect springboard to make his Roth debut the following year.
