This week we are joined by one of the most humble and inspiring triathletes currently doing the sport, Henri Schoeman. Henri went from being on top of the world to facing years or injury and challenges after breaking his ankle at the Tokyo Olympics.

Henri talks about overcoming those challenges and what motivates him to keep going. How he managed to remain focused and those athletes he competes against who inspire him to be better and who he wants to race and beat.

We talk about his transition to long course and what he thinks about all the opportunities for triathlon in the future.

We are back for 2024 and we start by looking at what will be the biggest events this year.

We discuss the rumours we have heard about PTO contracts and who might be trying to do both the PTO and IM series. We discuss the Olympics and why we think we already know who will win the men's race while women's is much harder to pick. But this makes us ask, could Taylor Knibb potentially win the Olympics, Ironman World Championship and 70.3 World Championship all in 2024?
