    #134 - Tim's Back to Talk Triathlon! (T100 Spain and WTCS Alghero)

    2026/05/29 | 1h
    Tim is finally back.
    We start with the Giro d'Italia and Maya Kingma's move into professional cycling, as she continues to show that triathletes can successfully make the transition to the pro peloton.
    Cassandre Beaugrand then adds another achievement to an already remarkable year by breaking the French 5km record.
    Supertri Austin follows, where the conversation turns to what has happened to the series. Once one of the most exciting products in the sport, Austin felt like a shadow of what Supertri used to be.
    T100 Spain delivered plenty of talking points, including Georgia Taylor-Brown securing the first T100 win of her career.
    Ironman Lanzarote saw Sam Laidlow get the better of Patrick Lange, while Lucy Charles-Barclay returned to long-distance racing with a dominant victory.
    We finish with WTCS Alghero. Olympic qualification is now underway, both fields are loaded with talent, and we discuss why WTCS continues to deliver some of the best racing in the sport, along with the improvements that have been made to the broadcast.
