- Sam Long’s rise in professional triathlon has been nothing short of meteoric.
From the relatively unknown and completely overlooked to becoming the 2021 Collins Cup Team US number one pick to face off against the sport’s GOAT: Jan Frodeno.
Starting out, despite training hard, Sam had very little to show for it on the race course and was not the warmest welcomed to the sport, being described by his peers as a clown who can talk the talk but can’t walk the walk. However, before long Sam was using the negative reception to his benefit, finally proving to himself and the triathlon world that he has what it takes to be one of the very best.

Love or hate him, personalities like Sam are what every sport needs. You either love to see him win or lose!
Fascinating insight. SL is certainly a triathlete to watch.
Brilliantly done, great job.
good to know more about you buddy, keep shining ✨
Jan and a few others are out of reach. But being top 10 is certainly an achievement by itself. I don't think Sam can bridge the swimming gap, but I hope it for him.
what an inspiration! Would love tp meet him in person
Of everyone I watched race in Dallas, Sam showed the most heart
love this series so much
Such a great documentry.
I didn’t like his personality at first either, very Sam Leidlow from a few weeks ago. But quite common for some young athletes coming up. It helped him grow quick, put him on everyones spotlight. But he’s got a great heart and he’s so freaking strong. He is so young still and has matured a lot in the past year, so can’t wait to see what his future will bring. Lets go Sam!
Great documentary guys 🙌🏻
This is an excellent video that shows you the real Sam, and not just a caricature.
Regardless of outcomes, i love Sam Long!
I think Sam (at only 26/27) needs to take stock. He's obviously got the ability but sometimes you need to race smart, the error at 70.3 (although I'm sure it wasn't his intention) was simply rookie stuff. He's got time to iron out any of the imperfections but sport is often played in the head, for that I can't say how this is going to pan out for him.
I'm almost certain that i already watched this. Is this reuploaded?
Just keep working hard, rooting for Sam
you must appreciate this kind of athletes.
Just keep working mate, No one out of reach your the 1 in 2023
Keep chugging bruh, haters always gonna hate.
Sam is this spit of his mom 😎
If they are talkin about you, they are thinking about you
LOL - Clearly let all the comments affect him.
Sam has to keep on going. He could have the stronger legs in triathlon, but he has to improve swimming or he will be out of contention.
Sam long is better than josh amberg. Josh is a decent swimmer but other than that an age group athlete could beat him. Don’t think it’s nice Sam Appleton make fun of Sam long
Sam must be laughing now 😂
There is no doubt that Sam Long is a top performing athlete within the sport and no one can take that away from him. On the personality side opinions are a lot more divided though as some find his attitude really funny and others find him extremely provocative. I say let Sam Long be Sam Long all day long, every day, but despite wins he will never gain the popularity of people like Jan, Kristian, Gustav or Lionel, unless he develops a more broadly likeable attitude. Then again, who says Sam Long wants that kind of popularity anyway?
Well? Does he?!
rhodes island greece
I wonder who Sam gets his looks from 🤣
“I had nobody supporting me”. Doesn’t pay any rent and utilities at 20 something….
"except for my parents" - please try to listen.
Love sam but his haircut making him look like Bert from sesame street
Cry baby cry
Why is it that every video I’ve seen of this guy is him complaining about something or whining? He quickly became a laughing stock for anyone who pays attention to pro triathlon.
Sam just realized he can only win small races that have a decent prize purse. shows up to the big boy races once or twice a year and gets WRECKT and then all he can say is excuses....
