Episode 699 - IRONMAN Florida. NYC Marathon. Jack’s Para Guiding.

Kate and Guy are back from the NYC Marathon. We hear about their experiences of the day. Plus, Jack tells us his opinion on Guy’s choice of running shoe!

“Miles do Matter’ - we talk about the importance of muscular conditioning for a marathon.

World Triathlon and HYROX have announced a landmark partnership establishing Hybrid Racing as an official discipline within the World Triathlon family. Building on a year of collaboration, HYROX are working towards the inclusion of Hybrid Racing in Multi-Sport Games, bringing them closer to their long-term ambition of Olympic and Paralympic recognition.

The racing at Challenge Xiamen and the influence of motos on the race course.

We review the incredible performances of Magnus Ditlev and Alanis Siffert at IRONMAN Florida.

Jack has taken on a new role for para triathlon in New Zealand and will be guiding for para triathlete Mike Whittaker. We hear about their first go at tethered swimming and tandem biking.
