With the women's race happening before we record our next episode we thought the time was right to preview the biggest race of the year.

We are less than a week away from the 2022 Ironman World Championships in Kona and the first time in the history of the race that the men and women will compete on different days. 

We go through who to watch, how we think the races will unfold and give our picks (even if some of us still aren't happy with our picks) as well.

We also preview Super League Triathlon in Toulouse, the terrible news that Kat Matthews was hit by a car and some confirmed races for the World Triathlon Championship Series in 2023.

Last week the news broke that Alistair Brownlee will not be racing in Kona this year after developing a stress fracture. We discuss what this will mean for the men's pro race and for the rest of the year.

We also discuss the news that Lucy Charles-Barclay will race Kona, drafting in Italy, impressive performances in Malibu and then go through the highs and many lows from the PTO US Tour in Dallas over the weekend.

With the PTO Tour happening this weekend in Dallas we thought the time was right to sit down with Sam Laidlow who caused quite a stir at The Collins Cup last month.

We talk to Sam about what he learned from The Collins Cup and his side of what went down with Sam Long. We also get his insight into how the PTO is shaking things up and how he sees Kona shaping up in a couple of weeks.

We also talk about the news that Flora Duffy has been given a wildcard to the 70.3 World Championships, IronMan decorating their race clothes with a penis and Cam Wurf racing Super League Malibu.

With Kona less than a month away people are starting to turn their attention to who they think is going to win and Mark Allen has gone out on a limb and predicted wins for Daniela Ryf and Kristian Blummenfelt.

We joke, but is there anyone capable of beating them on the big island? Ryf has a proven record there and Kristian has taken the 'rules' of triathlon and torn them to pieces.

We also unpack all of the action from Super League London, discuss a bizarre DNF in Mexico and once again 'discuss' what the PTO is up to at the moment.

Daniela Ryf has dominated nearly every race she has done in 2022 including the fastest time at The Collins Cup but the latest rankings update has seen her drop to world number 2?

This week we try and wrap our head around how this makes sense. We also discuss The Collins Cup broadcast and the upcoming Super League Championship series and how we aren't really excited about it this year.
