IMTalk Podcast

Loved the rap.

Bev, Good stuff with with the call on the famous Brit triathlete John O'Groats.....I wonder if he is doing IM UK?

For the record when you guys go live again when John gets back. At the start of the ChCh marathon the race announcer made it clear that iPods were not allowed. Did Bev takes his off at this point?

Hi! A regular listener to your great podcast I wanted to answer your call for interesting athletes to interview when (or is it an "if"? ;-)) you get to Kona. I could hook you up with the fastest amateur biker of last year in case he makes it to the island this year. If interested shoot me a PM. tim

I like the live video idea for Kona.

You guys mentioned the Des Moines ITU event this summer with the big money Olympic distance race and the new team race. I live about 60 km north of where the event will be held and will be participating in the age grouper event. This has been a great event the last couple of years. The local main sponsor, which is an employee-owned grocery chain called HyVee, has gone out of their way to use it to promote a healthy/triathlon lifestyle. Over the weekend, they will have the pro events, plus the largest age-grouper Olympic event in the area and a kids race. This year, the team event replaces a super sprint draft-legal event for teenagers. Losing that is a bit of a bummer, but the whole weekend is certainly one of the highlights of the year around here. Now with me and all our kids participating, I just have to convince my wife to find a couple friends to join up with so she can participate as part of a team. :-)

Drop us a message! We'd love to know what you're thinking.

Places to train In Aus. Can't go past the Sunshine Coast. Great facilities and have access to some great running and riding in the Glasshouse Mountains. Excellent pool facilities all around the coast. Heaps of great Triathletes are based in Noosa in particular.

Bev - that's a great top you're wearing mate. Be proud!

A quick post to say Happy Christmas to you guys and those closest to you! It's been another great year of listening to you both. Thanks and looking forward to 09 and Bev's return to IM racing!! :-)

Hey John and Bev - we made loads of changes to the Expo pages as you'll see here on the IMTalk page. Let us know what you think - it puts the content front and center and streamlines the page a bit.

Hey guys - just a heads up - we added some new functionality to the calendar. Just click on "View Calendar Entries" in the links on the left. It will now show all of the upcoming races that the members of IM Talk are doing. Let us know what you think.

Hi Bev and John, perhaps this may be a good question answer for the listeners. How much milledge do you get from running shoes? and how do you know when to buy new ones? I can never find the answer to these questions cheers - Steleo

I have a question for the panel...What is the best seat angle to use on my Equinox TTX 9.9 SSL. Is 78 degrees a good starting point (my road bikes are set at 75)? Are the advantages of a steeper seat angle proven or should I go for a shallower angle and more comfort for Ironman?

Where's the love guys, I'm the intelligent one ;-)
