I definitely don't think it's all just fitness. You could be the fittest and that's not who wins.
A triathlon podcast featuring an interview with development team athlete John Reed, who had a breakout WTCS season including podiums in Abu Dhabi, Chicago, Waihi, and second at Noosa. The hosts discuss his race format preferences, the mental side of elite racing, tire insert technology, and his Olympic qualifying path for 2028 LA Games.
