This week on Another Triathlon Podcast it is just Jenna-Caer and Josh on the mic, catching up on everything happening in the triathlon world. With only one major race left in the season, the big question now is simple. Who is actually going to make it to the T100 Qatar start line? Between illnesses, injuries, heat stress, travel fatigue and the tightest schedules we have ever seen, the final battle is shaping up to be unpredictable.

Jenna Caer and Josh break down the ripple effects of Dubai, the nonstop pro calendar, early season Ironman choices, the strategies athletes will use to lock in Kona and 70.3 Worlds slots, and how the T100 shake ups are pulling more pros into long course than ever. They also dive into the newest start lists, Taylor Knibb’s decision to pull the plug on Qatar, who benefits, and who suddenly has an opening for a top ten series finish.
