Our interview this week is with coach Matt Bottrill.  As you'll hear in the interview, Matt is the cycling coach for professional triathletes Timo Bracht, Lucy Charles, Rachel Joyce and Tim Don.  Matt frequented the podium at the national time trial in the UK and his success led to professional triathletes reaching out to him for coaching advice.  His specialty is aerodynamics and he's going to share his thoughts with our crew.

Thanks to last week's guests, coach Billy Edwards of the USA Naval Academy triathlon team.  We talking about USAT Collegiate Nationals and about the Navy team win, about the vibe of the race and how they score teams at this event

Our guest lives in Whitwick England, was all over the British Nation Time Trial Championship podium from years 2004-2013.  If you check the results page you'll see him right in the mix with Chris Froome and Bradley Wiggins.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_National_Time_Trial_Championships
