This week we discuss what the hell 'Black Friday' is and why we are being inundated with ads for massage guns as well as the 'new' 70.3 to hit Australia and the way the return to Kona slots is impacting late year Iron Man fields in a good way.

We talk about recent performances at Ironman Arizona, Ironman Cozumel (we do some research into how long that swim course actually was) and Western Sydney 70.3 where James makes the huge mistake of calling some Kiwi women Australian...

Another results wrap up as we discuss the upcoming Bussleton Iron Man with Brownlee going for an early Kona spot. We look at Ash Gentle winning her first 70.3 race on debut and the recent domination of short course athletes at the middle distance. 

We discuss whether Gustav Iden should focus more on 70.3 now that he is World Champion and catch up with all things Lionel Sanders after his win at Loc Cabos 70.3

Running is probably the easiest and most painful of the three disciplines of triathlon. It is something that regardless of your age, background or sporting history you have experience with. 

This week we talk all about running with two-time Kona winner Chris McCormack. We discuss how he has always approached running, the sessions he likes and basic things we can all do to un faster.

After far too long we are back to talk all about the recent happenings in endurance sports with some potentially unpopular opinions about some of the worst performances we saw in Kona. We discuss the masterclass that is Jan Frodeno as well as the abrupt end to Super League for 2019.

We discuss the news that Lange has parted ways with his coach, Cam Wurf is aiming for Tokyo and the news that Sanders has a new (old) coach (even though we thought he already had one.)

Some incredibly impressive results recently but the standout has to be Cam Wurf's incredible performance at Ironman Italy. 3 weeks out from Kona, Wurf has shown he can run and is taking a very different approach to most other athletes leading into Kona. We discuss the Ironman Wales result as well as all the action expected in Jersey this weekend with Super League kicking off.

A flurry of World Champions on the MX Endurance Podcast as this week we are joined by the World Triathlon Series World Champion and reigning Super League Triathlon Champion, Katie Zaferes.

We talk to Katie about her amazing 2019 season and her Super League Triathlon dominance. We discuss her goals and preparation for Tokyo 2020 and potential plans to step up to middle and long distance racing in the future. Katie talks to us about what her usual training load is like and how she approaches racing and her competitors.

Katie is absolutely one to watch before the 2020 Olympics and could be strong enough to challenge Daniela Ryf when she steps up to longer course racing.

Last weekend saw 2 days of incredible racing with some extremely surprising results and some not so surprising results!

This week we talk through all the action that unfolded in Nice and what these results mean for Kona in a little less than a month.

The biggest story out of Nice was the incredible win of Norwegian athlete Gustav Iden, one of the only athletes on the course on a road bike. Gustav's break out performance has made him one of the hottest names in the sport and he joins us this week to talk all about his race in Nice!

The bike is the most time consuming of the three disciplines but it can often be the easiest place to start as a triathlete.

You will learn all about improving your triathlon performance and bike splits and which training sessions are the best bang for your buck!
