A couple things from the first event. 1) Marketing the T100 format as the sweet spot for short, middle, and long distance triathletes is a MUCH BETTER strategy than trying to call this the âdefinitive long-distance championship series.â 2) The broadcast was good, but too much run-on commentary. The race is going to have high and low points in the action, and the broadcast needs to find a way to balance that. I never thought Iâd say this, but running ads every so often will actually help you get through the low points and will give you casting team some breaks. Just donât run as many ads as Ironman. 3) You need to show the times for all athletes in the race. When you have a series limited to a select group of contracted athletes, youâve got to show times for everyone. Formula 1 does a great job showcasing data for 20 drivers, so I donât see why this canât be done for triathlon. 4) Do some pre-production for the intros. Let the athletes focus on the start line and take out the theater from the race.
dude... thats almost covid style racing or zwift like.... almost no spectators, short course, brutal heat (euqivalent of broken fan when zwifting đ) if it wasn't for the money I would be hating it as a pro
Please in future can you (1) show the distances on screen of how far the leaders are in a particular discipline, i.e. have they done 20km of the run and (2) please quote speeds and distances either in BOTH MPH and KM/H, or just KM/H. It isnât very easy for people in most of the world who use metric ways of measuring distance. Also eycling is always measured in KM - even by British cyclists.
the course is super lame. As a fan I wouldn't want to watch this in person or on line/tv....same reason NASCAR doesn't interest me. I hope al of these races aren't like this.

NO ADS. NO NO NO. NO ADVERTISEMENTS DURING THE RACE. NO!!
Sam Long was 18th out of the water and almost passed the entire field!
If he improves his swim, he will be hard to beat.
Great series! Showing power & speed on the bike + speed on the run of every athlete is what a lot of people would like to see
Two races in one day was a little tricky negotiating with the familyâŠ. Lost some points on the family leaderboard⊠đ
haha love this one :) I've already "booked" watching Kona and couple others so there is no family arguments just before the races ;)
Amazing racing! Disappointed couldnât see on CZcams live in UK, but after coverage awesome!! Superstars
Couldn't watch it in Ireland either.
Which sucks.

Wonder if Magnus took out the bottle at some point
