Recapping Miami

Episode description

We’re back! We shake off the cobwebs to talk about the kickoff to the 2024 triathlon season. We touch base on Abu Dhabi’s cancellation, and then Eric’s experience down in Miami. We talk World Triathlon, CLASH Endurance, PTO, and a whole lot more. But ultimately – did we leave with more questions than answers as to how the PTO will pull off its goal of bringing triathlon to the masses via broadcast content? We also chat about our new slate of writers that have joined the team over the last few months.
