    India Lee answers: What is it about Ironman that draws people in?

    The team is back together! Joanne Murphy and India Lee give us all the details from-the-ground in Marbella at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships (including a party we're not allowed to talk about), and then they try to tackle the question: What makes the challenge of Ironman so appealing? The Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Marbella: The energy, excitement, activations, and vibes were next level with over 6,300 athletes from 114 countries. And the racing? It lived up to the hype with another Lucy Charles-Barclay v. Taylor Knibb showdown. They both showed they're not to be counted out! Did this actually inspire our own Katie Zaferes to try for 70.3 Worlds qualification in a couple of years...?? And has Lucy reached superstar status? Then, it's all about how athletes — including Indie — are getting through the last few big T100 races of the year, what changes could be made to the Ironman Pro Series, and why it's better when 70.3 Worlds is before Ironman Worlds. She tells us about: Why the British female triathletes so goodHer journey from short-course to medium-course to IronmanWhat it is that makes people want to sign up for another oneAnd that allure of Kona Join our Winter Training for Cyclists Program at https://feisty.co/ and look for the yellow banner at the top of the page.

    Who is going to start? A last-minute 70.3 World Championship preview

    This week, Laura Siddall joins us for an Ironman 70.3 World Championships preview. But first Kelly & Sid dive straight into the 2026 Ironman qualification drama that isn't going away — and probably won't go away any time soon. While Ironman had promised a fairer, more balanced system with 30–35% of total slots for women, the actual allocations of the "performance pool" spots are coming in closer to just 5%. Let your voices be heard, Feisties, and reach out to Ironman so they can hear your concerns! Then, from frustration to anticipation: We turn our focus to this weekend’s 70.3 World Championships in Marbella, Spain. Even though we're barely over 24 hours from the women's race, the start list continues to change. They discuss: The Marbella race course and strategy—who will benefit most from the climbing?Will the favs (Lucy, Kat, Taylor, Solveig) still be too tired from Kona to lay it all out there? Will they even make it to the start line? Which dark horses should we be watching?Watch out for those short course athletes! It's Kelly's favorite race of the year and you can catch it LIVE on Outside TV with the women at 11 p.m. PT Friday/2 a.m. ET Saturday (but North Americans may need to pull an all-nighter to catch it!) Here is a list of how to watch. Join our Winter Training for Cyclists Program at https://feisty.co/ and look for the yellow banner at the top of the page. Use code TRI50 to save $50.

    Pro cycling v. pro triathlon with Maya Kingma

    She's won a WTCS, she's been 7th at the Olympics, and she's raced in the women's Giro! Maya Kingma joins Kelly, Joanne, and Katie to talk all things swim-bike-run... and bike. First, she helps us tackle the big question: With so many series now on the calendar, how are pros supposed to choose? Between WTCS, T100, and Ironman races, it’s getting tougher to balance travel, recovery, and top-level performance week after week. And attract viewers. Then, Maya Kingma tries to explain what the heck is going on with the Dutch federation — who, she says, have chose to remove individual triathlon from their Olympic program?! How she balances pro triathlon and pro cyclingHow bike racing changed her approach to triathlon racingWhy the Dutch have chose to focus solely on the relay — and if this is a bad decisionBut first, apparently even the best face the lap pool conundrum: How do you get a workout in between the breaststrokers? And you thought it was going to be a slow week. Join our Winter Training for Cyclists Program at https://feisty.co/ and look for the yellow banner at the top of the page. Use code TRI50 to save $50.

    What happened in Wollongong!? And a first look at 70.3 Worlds

    The gang’s finally all here! Joanne’s somewhere between the post-Kona high and a jet lag hangover, but that’s not stopping us from diving into what’s next. First up: The World Triathlon Championship Finals in Wollongong. From the surprising upset in the elite race (and why it was surprising) to Katie's picks for the up-and-comers to watch and a few of our favorite para world champs. Plus, a couple of the big headlines from the biggest week for World Triathlon: What's happening with T100?The new 2026 scheduleAnd World Tri claims two new race disciplines: Fitness Racing and Swimrun And of course, a quick update on the new 2026 Ironman World Championship qualification process and why people are upset. Then we take our first look at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship start list. Yes, it’s definitely going to change in the coming weeks, but to begin: who’s in, who’s missing, and who might not make it to the start line.

    A Wollongong World Championship Preview

    From the lava fields of Kona last week to the golden shores of Wollongong, Australia: it's world championship season. This weekend Wollongong hosts the World Triathlon age-group, U23, juniors, and para world championships. Plus, a stacked WTCS Grand Final (which determins the world champion) and the re-scheduled T100 race.

Watch on Saturday evening in North America — on TriathlonLive.tv Plus, T100 Wollongong: Several (many many) names may be absent from the start list, but Ashleigh Gentle and Kate Waugh are headlining the favorites. Full start list + streaming info: t100triathlon.com/wollongong/pro Watch on Friday evening in North America — on the PTO's T100 Youtube.

    Hoka x Feisty: LIVE Post-Race Reflections with Taylor Knibb, Daniela Ryf, and Gwen Jorgensen

    Welcome to a unique Feisty x HOKA post-Ironman World Championship event — teaming up for a live celebration brunch and panel discussion in Kona, featuring some amazing age-group and local athletes, and special guests Taylor Knibb, Daniela Ryf, and Gwen Jorgensen. First, we hear inspiring stories from the women who raced as part of the IRONMAN Foundation (some for their first time) and from the local athletes who were selected in the Hawaii athlete lottery program. They open up about getting to the start and finish line — and they lessons they learned along the way. Then, the pros take the mic. Taylor Knibb walks us through yesterday's unforgettable IRONMAN World Championship race, including collapsing while in the lead with less than two miles to go. She’s poignant, funny, and as humble as ever, and there’s no doubt she’ll be back on the Big Island in the years to come. Plus, five-time IRONMAN World Champion Daniela Ryf and Olympic gold medalist Gwen Jorgensen share their insights, whether they wanted to be out there during one of the craziest races this island has seen, and their own advice for bouncing back when things go sideways.

    We're Back B*tches #6: The Post-Race Show

    THAT WAS CRAZY! We're back after a wild Ironman World Championship race that saw one former world champion drop out early on the bike (Chelsea Sodaro), another defending champ here DNF in the heat (Lucy Charles-Barclay), and then race leader Taylor Knibb collapse with less than two miles to go. We hear from our new 2025 Ironman World Champion Solveig Løvseth — completing the Norwegian sweep of the Ironman titles this year. And then we chat with most of the podium post-race and in the press conferences. Including: Kat Matthews' run course record and closing the gap in second to just 35 secondsHow 2024 Ironman World Champion Laura Philipp stayed calm as chaos reign in front of herAnd what led to surprises like Hannah Berry's 4th place — the highest from a Kiwi in 18 years It was a big day, and we've got all the post-Kona analysis!

    We're Back B*tches #5: Press Conference & Race Day Vibes with Announcer, Joanne Murphy

    On the eve of the IRONMAN World Championship, we’re joined by Feisty co-host and official race announcer Joanne Murphy, who somehow survives a week of wall-to-wall press conferences, interviews, banquets, and race-day hype—without totally losing her voice (or her mind). We talk about what it's actually like behind the scenes in Kona, how she preps for the chaos, and why she still makes time to soak in the magic. This year’s theme? Resilience. We’ve got highlights from the pro press conference and voices from two women who know this race inside and out: Diana Bertsch, IRONMAN’s SVP of World Championship Events, and Hall of Famer Cherie Gruenfeld. They remind us what makes this place—and this race—so legendary. Want to watch the action live?
