Colin Kearns is a prospect that we expect to hear much more from in upcoming years.

What age do top athletes reach their peak performance?
It varies greatly across different sports, by event length.

⬆️ for endurance events
Events lasting ~4 mins are where these linear trends seem to intersect.

Happy head, fast legs. Was so pleased to just pin the numbers on again this week at the @LTour_Of_Norway. To finish today with a win is surreal. Thank you to my teammates and my team. Not just for today but for the support and encouragement the last four and half months.
