We start off with a discussion of the performance cycle of sports teams before discussing a world class performance to break the SA 10k record. We touch on some Hyrox, Kilian Jornet’s States of Elevation and the potential for cross country to join the winter Olympics. In other Olympic news we discuss some events in the T&F being held outside of the stadium before more in-depth discussions of the Strava vs Garmin situation and a Kona preview with Pro Triathlete Eloise du Luart. We then debut a new segment; ‘seen on social’ before finishing with the Doctor’s office and a brief chat about  Connor Mantz’s chances of breaking the American marathon record.
