Episode 103: Ironman Swansea 70.3 Recap & WTCS Hamburg and the Road to Lake Placid

Send us a textIn this episode of Another Triathlon Podcast powered by @maunaapparel, Jenna (@jennacaer), Josh (@joshmvernon), and Fede (@fedemultisport) break down a packed weekend of racing and gear up for the final Ironman Pro Series race before World Champs.First up, the team talks Ironman 70.3 Swansea—highlighting a dominant win by Harry Palmer and a streaking Kat Matthews. From sheep dodging on technical descents to powerhouse bike packs and non-wetsuit swims, it was a race full of surprises. Plus, the crew dives into the current Ironman Pro Series standings and the increasingly strategic approach athletes are taking to chase points (or avoid racing Kat and KB altogether).Then it’s off to Hamburg for fast and furious short course action, where Matt Hauser and Leonie Perrault lit up the streets with sub-14 and sub-15:30 5Ks, leading their teams to a dominant Australian win in the mixed team relay. Hamburg is quickly becoming the crown jewel of short course triathlon—and the coverage, crowd, and racing lived up to the hype.Next, it’s all about Lake Placid. With big names like Jackie Hering, Holly Lawrence, Braden Currie, Kristian Høgenhaug, and Trevor Foley on the start list, the crew gives their podium picks for both the men’s and women’s races. Will Jason West surprise on his full-distance debut? Can Holly Lawrence carry her T100 momentum into her first Ironman? And will Foley’s firepower on the bike-run combo be enough to defend the title?Other hot topics include:The V21 trisuit pre-sale drop from @maunaapparelSam Laidlow’s request for a 70.3 Worlds wildcard (and why it’s a bad idea)Rumors of a T200 race distance and Olympic ambitions for T100Gordon Ramsay’s return to racing (yes, really)A quad-box broadcast win for Ironman Pro Series📺 Don’t forget—there’s a mystery interview episode dropping midweek that will answer some BIG questions we’ve all been asking 👀Listen now and catch up on the latest in long course, short course, and everything in between.🎧 Available on Spotify, Apple, and everywhere you get your podcasts.Brought to you by @maunaapparel – performance gear for those who rise.#triathlonpodcast #ironman703 #wtcs #triathlonlife #ironmanproseries #supertri #maunaapparel #anothertriathlonpod #triathlete #endurancesports #lakeplacidtriathlon #ironmanworldchampionship #katmatthews #harrypalmer #mattyhauser #vascovilaca #leonieperiault #triathlonnewsSupport the showStay connected with us!
