Macca is back to talk us through one of the most anticipated races this year, Jan Frodeno v Gustav Iden later this month in California.

Will Jan reclaim his world number 1 ranking? Will he break the official Ironman world record? Will he prove that he is still the benchmark of long distance racing? Or will we see the dawn of a new era with Gustav Iden proving why he is the world number 1? 

It will be a big ask at his first ever IM distance event but whatever happens it is sure to be a race you won't want to miss!

You heard it here first last year when Kristian and Gustav said Norway want to win the Olympics AND Kona this year and now it's been confirmed!

This week we take a look at the news that Kristian Blummenfelt is officially going after not only Olympic gold but also a Kona title as well. If that isn't enough? He also wants a WTCS World title too. We look at just how jam packed his schedule is, talk about the negative reactions to the announcement and also look at which other short course stars we can expect to see go long now the Olympics are over.

We also run though all of the action from the Olympic Mixed Team Relay that saw Team GB win the inaugural event, USA secure silver and France get a bronze.

Last week we crowned our new Olympic Champions, Kristian Blummenfelt and Flora Duffy.

This week we recap all of the action from Tokyo 2020 2021. We break down the men's and women's races, what we were surprised by, what we weren't surprised by and how the biggest triathlons of the last 5 years went down.

We also look at Lisa Norden's Iron Man debut, discuss triathlon's latest doping scandal and the fact that triathlon has cracked mainstream media for all the wrong reasons.

This weekend we see two of the biggest names face of in Germany at the Tri Battle Royale.

Lionel Sanders will race Jan Frodeno and word on the street is that a world record might fall.

We got Macca on this week to talk all about how the race will unfold. Chris talks about why this sort of racing is so good for the future of triathlon, why he thinks the world record will be broken and exactly what Lionel Sanders needs to do to walk away with the win.

No you did not misread the title of this week's episode.

Lucy Charles-Barclay has announced that she is not just trying to go sub 8 next year, she wants to beat Jan Frodeno's current Iron Distance record of 7:35!

We discuss the implications of this achievement and look at Lionel Sanders pathway to Kona for 2021 and if the Canadian will decide not to line up in Kona this year and instead focus on the Collins Cup.

Throughout the history of triathlon there have been so many incredible performances and so many incredible athletes. But who are the greatest female triathletes of all time?

This week we are joined by Annie Emmerson to determine once and for all who the greatest of all time are! With so many incredible athletes to choose from who will come out on top? Will it be Daniela Ryf who has dominated long course racing for what feels like forever or maybe Chrissie Wellington who came onto the scene, made a statement and then vanished? What about the Queen of Kona, Paula Newby-Fraser or Nicola Spirig who is about to go to her 5th Olympics!

We have sorted through and ranked the top-10 female triathletes of all time!

On the list of things that get better with age you wouldn't probably put triathletes but Jan Frodeno is proving that age is but a number after a commanding performance over the weekend leaving us to wonder, is there anyone who can beat him?

To tackle such a big question we thought we should bring in the big guns so Macca joins us this week to give us his thoughts on whether anyone can beat the German powerhouse and if so how.

We also preview this weekend's St George 70.3, talk about Ironman taking away the swim and Daniela Ryf leaving her coach.

Adam Hansen is back again to talk all about innovation in sport as he talks us through exactly what is going on with the bike that he is building for himself and why it is going to be unlike anything we ever seen.

Adam then turns his attention the upcoming Sub7Sub8 Project by the Pho3nix Foundation and goes through just how hard a 180km TTT is going to be. Adam's extensive experience in the pro peloton gives us an insight into what the project is going to take, what will be needed to succeed and why the physical challenge might not be as hard as the mental challenge.

Beth Potter has stormed onto the triathlon scene over the last two weeks winning the Super League Arena Games and then seemingly breaking the 5km road World Record a week later. But here's the thing, those of you who are familiar with Beth will know this is not a miracle!

This week we are joined by the former 10,000m Olympian who has turned her attention to triathlon. We discuss her incredible performances at both the Arena Games and her 5km run and find out just why people shouldn't be surprised.

A news packed episode this week with so much to talk about including the Super League Arena Games, Ironman New Zealand, Geelong 70.3 and a look at the recent Tokyo qualification of Chris Thompson, an On sponsored athlete who wore a blacked out pair of Nike's with permission from On.

This makes us ask the question, if every athlete is choosing to wear the Nike super shoes why would they ever sponsor an athlete again? Almost every pro athlete in any race now uses Nike if they are sponsored or not. So will we see an end to athlete sponsorship for shoes or will other brands catch up?

Fresh of her win at Challenge Miami, two time Commonwealth Games Gold Medalist joins us this week to talk about her impressive result at Challenge Miami.

We talk about Jodie's race in Miami, her thoughts on this new format and distance of racing and what we can expect to see of her this year. We also talk her about the highs and lows of her career including her many ITU wins, stepping up to long course and not getting to compete at the Olympics.

We also do a debrief on both the men's and women's races at Challenge Miami, where half of the hosts picked the male podium and the other half... didn't. We look at Jan Frodeno's masterclass and try to unravel the mystery, 'how does Lionel run so fast while looking so bad?'

With the introduction of Super League Triathlon, the PTO attempted to make long course triathlon exciting and the announcement of the sub7/8 project, there is lots of triathlon coming to your screen. The question that needs to be asked though, is can triathlon work on TV?

This week we are joined by the SLT commentary team to find out what they think needs to be done to make triathlon work on tv. What is being done right, what needs to be improved and how we can make the sport we all love more successful.

Behind every great athlete there is a strong network of support and it just so happens that behind many of the world's best athletes is one super coach!

Joel Filliol is one of the most successful coaches in triathlon with Olympic medals, world championships and just about everything in between. Joel works with athletes like Vincent Luis, Mario Mola, Jake Birtwhistle and Katie Zaferes. We sat down with Joel and find out how he got into coaching, what he has learned from other athletes and coaches and what all of this uncertainty means for athletes around the world. A really insightful conversation with someone so integral to the highest performers in triathlon.

This week we turn our attention towards what we can expect to see in 2021 in triathlon.

Will the Olympics happen? Who will win? What about the 70.3 and Ironman World Championships? Can we finally see a return to long course championship racing or are we going to have to wait until 2022? What will this mean for athletes like Tim O'Donell, Jan Frodeno and even Daniella Ryf? We give our picks for the Kona, 70.3 and Olympic podiums and our thoughts on the chances of all of these races happening.

2020 saw the introduction of the Professional Triathletes Organisation and their first event, the PTO Championship in Daytona. It also saw lots of people asking the same questions about the PTO. What are they? What is their business model? How do they plan to make money? Why don't they get along with Ironman? 

This week we are joined by the CEO of the PTO, Sam Renouf to answer all of your questions about the PTO. Sam was incredibly open, honest and candid with his answers to all of your questions. By the end of this episode we hope you will understand what the PTO is, what they want to do and how they want to do it.
