#79 - Joe Skipper

This week, we're joined by Joe Skipper to discuss his race at Ironman New Zealand. Joe shares his insights into how the day unfolded, from the swim through to that brutal final stretch on the run, and what the result means for the rest of his season.   We then break down the action from Geelong 70.3, where Jelle Geens stormed to victory with a lightning-fast run, Jake Birtwhistle delivered a solid performance, and Natalie Van Coevorden claimed a huge win in the women's race.   To wrap things up, we preview Ironman South Africa, looking at the big names on the start list—Magnus Ditlev, Marten Van Riel, and Ruth Astle—and how we think the race will play out.
