Jules Muzard and the Long Road Through Vietnam

What does it take to win a 4,000 kilometer self supported ultra cycling race across Vietnam?

In this episode of Zone2Speak, I sit down with Jules Muzard, fresh off his win at InnerScape, one of the longest and most demanding ultra cycling races in the world.

We go beyond Vietnam into his wider journey through ultra cycling, including races like Desertus and Marseille Napoli, and how experience shapes decision-making when fatigue takes over.

This is a conversation about more than just results. It is about pacing, resilience, and learning how to stay in the race when your body and mind start pushing back.

If you are curious about ultra racing, or you have ever wondered what it takes to go all in over multiple days on the bike, this one is for you.
