Food Poisoning, T100 Chaos & Charlotte Derbyshire

Brought to you by Official Beer Co. Produced by Podfire.

In Episode 32, Lachie and Leighton return after a chaotic two weeks of sickness, racing mishaps and travel disasters. They dive into the drama of the T100 Dubai debacle, the lap-count confusion, and the fallout across the triathlon world, before unpacking the highlights of the 70.3 World Championships and other major results. The boys then welcome special guest Charlotte Derbyshire, fresh off her first ever World Cup podium in Tongyeong. Charlotte opens up about the relief of proving to herself she still belongs in the sport, overcoming a tough 2023 season where she almost walked away, the rebuild with coach Micho, and the training changes that unlocked her next step. The episode finishes with some fun rapid-fire questions and stories from the road, rounding out a big week in the triathlon world.
