This week my erstwhile friend Tim Heming is back in the chair as I travel to deepest Gloucestershire to pin him down and chat about the 2018 triathlon season, and discuss some of this season’s winner and losers. Listen in to our lively ‘debate’ and you’ll hear:
- Why we both think that the Commonwealth games messed up the season for a number of athletes
- That Tim is one of the most successful triathlon tipsters as he reveals just how good his Kona top 10 picks were this year
- ….. and then confesses that being pressured into including Lionel Sanders in his top 5 was a big error
- Which events did we pick as our ‘race of the year’
- Why we both love Super League
- Our final comments on 2018 WTS, why Vicky Holland is awesome and Georgia Taylor-Brown is a start of the future, and who else to watch out for in 2019
- Simon’s revolutionary plans to introduce darts into triathlon
- Highlights of the year - 1 now legendary British female Ironwoman and 2 male pros who defied the odds
Here are links to several of the topics we discussed today:
*Tim talked about the Super league Highlights and you can watch those here
*The Man in the Halo - The incredible story of Tim Don’s comeback after a potentially life changing injury
*The CancerFit.me project with Gill Fullen and Lucy Gossage
