About this episode

The episode covers the Oceanside 70.3 race results and discusses the upcoming Ironman Texas start list and various athlete performances.

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.
