    #134 - Tim's Back to Talk Triathlon! (T100 Spain and WTCS Alghero)

    Tim is finally back. We start with the Giro d'Italia and Maya Kingma's move into professional cycling, as she continues to show that triathletes can successfully make the transition to the pro peloton. Cassandre Beaugrand then adds another achievement to an already remarkable year by breaking the French 5km record. Supertri Austin follows, where the conversation turns to what has happened to the series. Once one of the most exciting products in the sport, Austin felt like a shadow of what Supertri used to be. T100 Spain delivered plenty of talking points, including Georgia Taylor-Brown securing the first T100 win of her career. Ironman Lanzarote saw Sam Laidlow get the better of Patrick Lange, while Lucy Charles-Barclay returned to long-distance racing with a dominant victory. We finish with WTCS Alghero. Olympic qualification is now underway, both fields are loaded with talent, and we discuss why WTCS continues to deliver some of the best racing in the sport, along with the improvements that have been made to the broadcast.

    #127 - Oceanside 70.3 Catch Up and Crazy Ironman Texas Start List

    We finally get to Oceanside 70.3 after Tim was away last week, breaking down the men's race with Kristian Blummenfelt, Casper Stornes, Sam Long and Jonas Schomburg all in the mix. On the women's side, the focus turns to Taylor Knibb and what her performance means heading towards Kona. We then move to the T100 Singapore start list, which is loaded with short course names. The question is whether it's a straightforward win for Hayden Wilde or if athletes like Matt Hauser and Leo Bergere can challenge him. A one-off running segment this week. Cassandre Beaugrand sets a French 10k record, Leonie Periault runs 1:09 for the half marathon, Alex Yee is pacing the London Marathon, and Jelle Geens is planning a sub 2:25 marathon in Texas. We finish with Ironman Texas, where the start list is stacked.
