JYD - Frankfurt and Roth

Joe and Tom catch up after the Ironman European Championship in Frankfurt, breaking down the race and sharing their own recent experiences.

Tom reflects on missing his race due to car troubles despite being in top form, while Joe talks about his own training and upcoming races. They dive into the performances in Frankfurt, including Kristian Blummenfelt’s smart racing, Kristian Hogenhaug’s strong showing before a controversial penalty, and how tactics played out on the bike and run. The conversation also covers the chaotic officiating that impacted the race outcome, with both Joe and Tom criticising inconsistent and heavy-handed referee decisions.

They discuss the recent change of venue for the T100 series, with Tom highlighting the double standards in how race organisers portray different countries. The episode wraps up with a look ahead to Challenge Roth and some light-hearted chat about travel, training and triathlon culture.
