Today’s episode is a great conversation I had recently with Daniel Cassidy the CEO of Major League Triathlon, the first and only Professional Triathlon league in the North America. Dan and I have become close friends over the last few years as I’ve followed the league from its inception in 2016. We cover a wide range of topics today, including - How Dan’s wife Sarah played an integral role in the creation of MLT through her experience as a Triathlon spectator - The origin story of Major League Triathlon which started as a way to engage spectators and the general public - The courage to go all-in and try something new - Having heroes in professional sports as a young athlete and providing a clear pathway for youth, junior and collegiate athletes aspiring to race at the top of the sport - My obscure Triathlon hero as a kid! - The skills and lessons, Dan has taken from sport into business and controlling the things you can control - Ideas on how to grow engagement and participation in Triathlon -Gender parity and equality in the Mixed Team Relay format. - The inauspicious beginnings of the series in Temple, Texas and some of the memorable moments from the first 3 seasons of Major League Triathlon. Finally, it saddens me to share the news of the passing of Mike Plant, Mike was a legend in the sport of triathlon, many consider him the first person to cover the beginnings of the sport in San Diego, CA some 40 years ago. He was a lifelong contributor to the industry, a friend and supporter of Major League Triathlon and a beacon for positivity. Mike you will be missed, mate. -------------------------- I am very grateful to be able to bring these conversations to you and it wouldn’t be possible without the support from iKOR labs who are the sponsor of today’s InnerVoice audio experience. iKOR is a clean, natural source of recovery-enhancing full spectrum hemp extract.

Beverly Hills 90120 is back in the news and may be back on TV soon with a bunch of the original cast! So, we went into our archive and pulled out this SuPeR-Cute interview where I talked to Ian Ziering about the legacy key, whether Steve was actually a good guy at heart and his adorable princess Penna Mae’s opinion on A Good Dinosaur vs. Sharknado! I’m a HUGE fan of Beverly Hills 9010! At the time, I was on Season 5 of the show. I think Ian gave me a bit of a test to see if I really know my stuff. It’s not the first time that’s happened, BTW!

This week we look at what may be the hottest thing in professional team endurance racing, the Major League Triathlon series. Welcome to episode 93 of the Final Surge Podcast. This week Daniel Cassidy the founder of the Major League Triathlon series joins us to talk about how he got the idea for creating a professional triathlon series and where he sees the growth in the future. If you enjoy this episode please head over to iTunes and rate and review the podcast and please don't forget to subscribe to the show.   How did you get your start in endurance athletics? Started racing triathlons as a senior in high school Played hockey and baseball until an injury Swam/biked to rehab knee and became good Tell us what the Major League Triathlon is? As competing girlfriend was frustrated with how long it took as a spectator  Saw need to take friends and family members into consideration  Wanted to make it more exciting to people and grow the sport of triathlon How does it work? Mixed team relay 2 men and 2 women per team 300m swim, 4-mile bike, 1-mile run and tag to teammate One hour and 20 minutes or less One square mile or less footprint Have 9 teams So longest leg is on the bike and 4 miles, is this looped or an out and back? Loop all courses 4-6 loops on bike and 3 on the run You mentioned 9 teams, how does the season work, is there a playoff?  Point system from each race Last race counts for 1.5x typical points Do you have other people participating or just professionals? Started to do some other races throughout the weekend Playing with other ideas to get other people involved Is the shorter distance also done to get new people involved as it doesn't seem as intimidating? Want to give racers a chance to race more Shorter translate into making it easier to watch Want to grow exposure for triathlon  Like any sport, it's who is involved that makes it work or not. How has the reception been from professionals?  Just about everyone who has a shot at 2020 is involved Every athlete involved has a shot at making the 2020 Olympics team Athletes racing love it which is causing more people to reach out With the short races and team aspect I would think this would be attractive to TV, have you been talking to any of them? Yes we have had conversations with television networks It is in our future Have you thought about doing other distances? We likely won't change the distance We are working on super sprint individual races How about the weekend, is this just race day or do you have expos and exhibits? Focus on race day Do have expo and live music Beer gardens and food trucks Kid zones How do you decide where you are doing them? We have Atlantic City, Colorado, Tempe and Charlotte Plan on staying in those locations but adding on other locations  Do you think triathlons are growing as a sport or do you think it has been stagnant?  In the US has leveled off some Need to attract the younger audience To last, it needs to be profitable which means you need a product which is athletes people want to see as well as sponsors. What are you doing to make it attractive to sponsors? Amplifying reach with online streaming 8,000 people at an event are good, but nothing like big sports games so online is important Engagement rates and views are growing When a family or friend of a professional triathlete goes to a race they have hours to spend, how did this play into your planning? Community event with food trucks Want vendors to be interactive not just products Music What races are left this season? Sept 22nd, Tempe AZ Oct 6th, Charlotte for Championship  Final Surge 5 questions in under a minute Favorite endurance/running book? - Pass Current trainers you are wearing? - APL Favorite race? - 70.3 San Juan  Favorite recovery meal or recovery drink? - Chipotle Your favorite workout - Hour and a half long run Resources Website https://majorleaguetri.com/ Twitter https://twitter.com/majorleaguetri Instagram https://www.instagram.com/majorleaguetri Facebook https://www.facebook.com/majorleaguetriathlon/
