Vincent Luis, Henri Schoeman, Frederic Funk, Maya Kingma: steeds meer atleten maken de overstap van het kortere naar het langere werk. Zouden de 'traditionele' Long Distance specialisten zich al zorgen maken? Verder kijken we naar Africa Cup Troutbeck, Sam Laidlow, hebben we het uitgebreid over Pieter Heemeryck en ook Marten van Riel en Jelle Geens komen voorbij. En we komen nog even terug op Imogen Simmonds, die een opvallende move maakt.
Hij was ijzersterk, krankzinnig goed en van wereldniveau: de superlatieven vliegen je om de oren als je probeert de prestatie van Marten van Riel te omschrijven, die afgelopen weekend de PTO T100 Ibiza won. Daarnaast bespreken we Sam Laidlow, Pieter Heemeryck, Youri Keulen, Kyra Meulenberg en Maya Kingma. Verder lijkt Alex Yee klaar voor de Grand Final, was Turnhout genieten en gebeurden er ook mooie dingen bij het WK Xterra. Wel even minder: de winter lijkt nu echt begonnen.
Afgelopen weekend zat Tim in Uzbekistan op de motor naast een ontketende Kristian Blummenfelt en een aan een comeback werkende Gustav Iden en tijdens Challenge Samarkand zag hij dat het goed zit met deze mannen. Ondertussen genoot Hans in eigen land van een heerlijke editie van Ironman 70.3 Knokke-Heist, met onder andere een sterke Greg van Avermaet. Daarnaast onder meer een terugblik op Maya Kingma's overwinning in Karlovy Vary en de aankondiging van Challenge Abu Dhabi.

Vooraf was er veel te doen om de Olympische Triathlons, maar vandaag vond zowel de mannen- als vrouwenrace plaats. In beide wedstrijden was een prachtige, spectaculaire strijd te zien en waren er dankzij onder andere Maya Kingma en Mitch Kolkman geweldige hoogtepunten. Teleurstellingen waren er ook en dat is logisch: bij belangrijke races zijn er tenslotte altijd atleten die juist minder dan verwacht presteren. Hans en Tim lopen beide races door en bespreken de hoogte- en dieptepunten.
Wat gaan we als NL geweldig in de Triathlonsport! Afgelopen weekend won Mitch Kolkman de Triathlon van Holten, Maya Kingma werd er 2e. In deze uitzendingen bellen we met Ilse Paulis, Kyra Meulenberg en Mitch Kolkman himself!
Lotte Wilms heeft zich afgelopen weekend geplaatst voor het WK IRONMAN in 2024! Er werd onwijs hard gelopen bij de marathon in Valencia en op de Montferlandrun. We bellen met Kyra Meulenberg en met Maya Kingma, die toptijden liepen. Ook in deze uitzending uiteraard de atleten zelf aan het woord!

First the British superstar had to overcome a blip right at the start as he fell to his knees on the beach before rising to play catchup. Yee and Wilde, who seemed to be joined by the hip after exiting the water side by side and spending the majority of the bike ride together, were inseparable throughout the first three laps of the run, before Yee eventually got the better of the Kiwi in a sprint to the line. Defending world champion Leo Bergere of France got back on a podium with third, as Les Bleus swept 3-4-5 with Pierre Le Corre and Dorian Coninx enjoying strong races. Swim – Dévay leads the way Over the course of a choppy sea swim off the coast of Sardinia, the men's race didn't follow the same script as the women's competition just hours earlier, with the majority of the field coming out of the water within touching distance. Over the first lap, Frenchman Dorian Coninx led the way, with the South African duo of Henri Schoeman and Jamie Riddle hot on his heels coming out for the Australian exit at halfway. Hungarian athlete Márk Dévay, a former World Aquathlon champion, was also up there, as was WTCS leader heading into today, Vasco Vilaca. By the end of the swim, things where more of the same at the front, with Dévay keeping things honest as he lead out of the water, with Riddle, Schoeman, Coninx, Vilaca and a number of others close by. Most importantly, Alex Yee and Hayden Wilde, two of the pre-race favourites, were just +0:15 down out of the water and in perfect position. Further back, Olympic champion Kristian Blummenfelt was just over half a minute behind at the back of the second group, with compatriot Gustav Iden ten seconds further back at +0:47 and Richard Murray of the Netherlands the last out of the water a minute down after Spaniard Mario Mola withdrew. Bike – Blummenfelt left stranded Out of transition, there was a mad scramble to make the front pack, as two dozen athletes, including Wilde, made it into the front pack, with the second group featuring the likes of Blummenfelt. The chase pack, sensing danger, worked hard over the first lap to close the gap, but was unable to, with the gap then quickly blowing out. After three laps, the gap was well over half a minute, with Wilde drilling the pace at the front of the lead group, as the chase group struggled to make back any time despite featuring the firepower of the likes of Blummenfelt and Swiss Simon Westermann, who on multiple occasions tried to drag the chasers along. By halfway, the gap was up to +0:50 with the front pack showing no signs of slowing, as Belgian Martin Van Riel, returning from a long period out with injury, returned to the front of a WTCS bike pack for the first time in close to a year. Off the bike, the gap back to Blummenfelt and the rest of the chase pack was +1:15, with the front pack, thanks to the hard work of the likes of Van Riel and Wilde, enjoying a comfortable buffer coming into transition.

Taylor Knibb had the extra factor on the bike, which dictated the outcome of the race in Sardinia, Italy. Taylor-Brown benefited from Knibb's hard work and then used her superior run strength to secure her third WTCS win of the season and extended her lead in the overall Series. Knibb was rewarded with bronze as Beth Potter and Cassandre Beaugrand found themselves on the wrong side of the beak and too far back to factor in the medal positions. Georgia Taylor-Brown WTCS Cagliari 2022 Photo Credit: World Triathlon Swim – Lopes leads the way The beach run into the water split athletes up immediately. Beaugrand ran, dived and swam away from the rest in the choppy sea before Maya Kingma and Vittoria Lopes took over, particularly on the second lap. Lopes was first to hit the timing mat after 1500m in 19:39 while Summer Rappaport, Beaugrand, Kingma and Sophie Coldwell and just about everybody else except Taylor Knibb, were bunched up with her. Potter and Taylor-Brown were 9th and 10th out, but there was really nothing separating them as they all burst into transition. Bike – All aboard the Knibb train The short transition was executed cleanly and quickly by everyone and a huge bunch left transition. The pace looked to be on from the start, but Knibb overcame a 30-second deficit from the swim and caught them by the third of 10 laps. She hit the front, blew the pack apart on the fourth lap and it was a rare moment that she wasn't on the front for the rest of the cycle leg. The British trio of Taylor-Brown, Coldwell and Waugh rode in the front group of 11 athletes, but Potter and Beaugrand were dropped. By the time the leaders hit T2, the group had put 1 min 44 seconds into the chase group, which contained Potter and Beaugrand. Advertisements Run – GTB takes control The group of 11 leaders were separated by no more than a second coming into transition, but it wasn't long before Taylor-Brown hit the front along with Knibb and Emma Lombardi. By the third of four laps, Taylor-Brown hit the front and stayed there to cross the line in front to claim another excellent victory in 2022. She said: “I just tried to run my own race and tried to stay in contact with that bike group. Taylor made it really hard but it worked in our favour because we got a really good gap. “I forgot how hard she rides, but it's good, she really gets the group going and we're all trying to hang on to her wheel. “I started speaking to the girls on the first two laps (of the run), ‘lets work together because this could be the podium.'” On extending her Series lead over Flora Duffy, who wasn't there today, she said: “It's all going to come down to Abu Dhabi now.” Lombardi was delighted to win silver, her first ever WTCS medal, she said: “I'm really enjoying racing against the best in the world, it's fantastic.” Beaugrand ran up to eighth place and moved in to third position overall in the Series. Potter finished 10th, which moves her down one place to fourth in the Series. WTCS Cagliari 2022 Results Saturday October 8 2022 – ELITE WOMEN 1.5km / 38k / 10k 1.

Much has happened on and off the blue carpet since we were last here, not least Bermuda's very own Flora Duffy making history by becoming the first triathlete to win both the Olympic and World titles in the same year, becoming Bermuda's first ever Olympic gold medallist and more recently the first to defend a Commonwealth Games triathlon title. This weekend, we return to the island for the penultimate Championship Series racing of 2022, and elite men's and women's events that have the potential to make a huge impact on the battles to become this year's World Triathlon Champions. The triathlon world's eyes will be fixed on this beautiful corner of the Atlantic and can expect another dose of high-octane entertainment from the world's best athletes. The island will also host a wealth of Age-Group and kids triathlon races, and it is always gratifying to see our sport continuing to grow among so many people at all levels of the sport. It is precisely these weekends that will inspire future generations to take up the magic of swim bike run and that can be the spark behind the fire of the next Flora Duffy. Bermuda has a strong and important history of triathlon and also with the WTCS, having hosted many professional events since 1987, including three WTCS (formerly ITU World Cups) in the 90's where Flora Duffy, Olympic gold medalist and multiple World Champion, watched as a young aspiring triathlete. Age Group - Saturday, November 5th 8am Elite Men - Sunday, November 6th 11am Elite Women - Sunday, November 6th 2pm Temperature in November varies between an average high of 74 degrees to a low of 67 degrees Fahrenheit.

Endurance News: Taylor Knibb Powers to Victory at 2022 Ironman 70.3 World Championships It was the Taylor Knibb show at the 2022 Ironman 70.3 World Championship in St. George as the 24 year-old American put on a master class of racing to take her first-ever 70.3 World title. A master class in racing was held in St. George, Utah this morning during the women's pro race at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship. The instructor: 24 year-old Taylor Knibb, who delivered a confident and commanding swim, bike, and run to take the win in 4:03:20. The Swim Lucy Charles-Barclay and Lotte Wilms finish the women's pro swim leg during the 2022 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship. After much speculation about whether or not the swim would be shortened after a cold front moved through southern Utah on race week, race morning arrived with 63 degree F water temperatures and the full 1.2-mile swim. Naturally, many assumed this would work to the advantage of defending champion Lucy Charles-Barclay, who is known for building a considerable lead in any swim leg she races. But instead of surging to the front as usual, she found she had company: Lotte Wilms of the Netherlands and American Taylor Knibb were on her feet. At the halfway point, Wilms surged to attempt a pass, and Charles-Barclay matched her speed; Knibb held on in the draft, eventually reeling the two back in. The trio powered through to the swim exit, with Charles-Barclay's 23:50 swim split just barely edging out Wilms' 23:51 at the first timing mat; Knibb followed in 23:54. The Bike With air temperatures hovering around 38 degrees F at the start of the bike leg, it was clear the race would belong to the one who could best manage the cold. Clad in gloves and thermal cycling attire, Knibb wasted no time taking charge on the bike leg, moving to the front within the first mile. With an average speed of 28.2 MPH in the first 20 miles, Knibb's lead only grew: one minute at mile 10, 2:30 at mile 20. But Knibb wasn't the only one moving quickly. Duffy also pushed hard in the initial miles of the bike, shooting out of the rolling hills of Sand Hollow with laser-like focus to move into second place by mile 10. Behind her, India Lee (GBR) and Findlay were the only athletes to match Knibb's blistering pace, and they were each rewarded with a Duffy pass and a turn at second place before mile 30. At mile 40, Charles made her move, pushing back into second place with Findlay and Duffy close behind as they entered Snow Canyon. Lawrence, spent from the cold and the early charge, was unable to respond and fell behind. Within the walls of Snow Canyon, Knibb's lead only grew. With almost five minutes on the chase pack, the young American sailed up the notoriously steep climbs; behind her, Findlay, then Duffy, then Charles-Barclay (again) attempted to drop the hammer, but no one was willing to give up the fight. As the three crested Snow Canyon and powered to T2, they were greeted by Knibb, who was already well into the run course. The message was unspoken, but clear: Knibb's impossibly fast 2:14:41 bike split had given her a lead of six minutes and 44 seconds. The Run From the first steps out of T2, it was clear that Knibb saw the run as a mere formality to the win. With a consistent 5:58 min/mile pace, Knibb's lead grew – and grew, and grew. By mile 4, she had more than 7:30 over her closest competition. Though the victory was all but decided, there was still an intense race going on to see who would get boxed out of the podium. Duffy, Findlay, and Charles-Barclay ran as a pack, each daring the others to make a move. At the halfway point, Charles-Barclay began to fall back, and Duffy's form began to show signs of fatigue. Findlay, sensing it was time to make a move, began to slowly pull ahead. Over the course of the next three miles, she was able to put in more than 40 seconds on Duffy and Charles. But an out-and-back section of the course revealed that those two weren't the only competitors Findlay had to worry about – a hard-charging Pallant-Browne was clocking 5:56 min/mile splits in hopes of running her way from ninth place off the bike and onto the final podium. She made easy work of it, overtaking Duffy and Charles in the final mile of the race. In the end, Knibb's 1:21:48 run and 4:03:20 finishing time was more than enough to stamp her name on the history books as the youngest woman to win the title of Ironman 70.3 World Champion. Findlay followed in 4:08:57, and Pallant-Browne rounded out the podium with a run split of 1:17:45 and an overall finishing time of 4:10:45. A Rollercoaster 70.3 World Championship, Kristian Blummenfelt Holds on for the Win A relentlessly close swim, a controversial penalty, and a run battle for the ages - the pro men's race at the 2022 Ironman 70.3 World Championship was a high-stakes, high-drama affair that had viewers on the edge of their seats from the very start to the very finish. A relentlessly close swim, a controversial penalty, and a run battle for the ages – the pro men's race at the 2022 Ironman 70.3 World Championship was a high-stakes, high-drama affair that had viewers on the edge of their seats from the very start to the very finish. The moment of catharsis came in the form of a Kristian Blummenfelt victory in a staggering 3:37:12 on one of the toughest courses on the 70.3 circuit. Men's Race: The Swim With water temperatures at 62 degrees F and air temperatures at 40 degrees F, the theme of the day was the same as the women's race prior: managing the cold conditions of late fall in southern Utah. Aussie Aaron Royle set the pace, with Americans Ben Kanute and Marc Dubrick hot on his heels. Royle emerged from the water first in 22:20, followed by Marc Dubric and Ben Kanute. But what came next was a rare sight in middle-distance racing: In the span of only 20 seconds, a pack of 19 athletes rushed out of the water as if one unit. It was no surprise, then, that T1 was a bit of a circus, with athletes jockeying for position. The pack, which included Denmark's Miki Taagholt and Magnus Ditlev, Norwegians Kristian Blummenfelt and Gustav Iden, Americans Eric Lagerstrom and Jason West, Germans Mikia Noodt and Frederic Funk, and Canadian Brent McMahon, rushed out of transition as quickly as they entered. Two minutes down from the lead, another chase pack formed, this one containing Canadian Jackson Laundry and American Sam Long. In 34th and 40th place, respectively, it was clear that if they wanted a fighting chance at the podium, they were going to have to put in some big work on the bike to catch their competition. The Bike Blummenfelt had no intention of sitting in the pack and watching the race unfold in front of him. He pushed hard from the very start, setting out at a burning pace of 28 mile per hour in the rolling hills out of Sand Hollow. Sam Long, who had ridden his way from 40th to 8th place in the first 20 miles, was the one who took the hit. After getting caught in a tight spot during a pass involving Laundry, Long found himself with a controversial call-out from the referee and a five-minute stand-down in the penalty box. With a gap of 2:25 and an enormous chase pack of 18 athletes close together whizzing past the yellow penalty tent, Long was visibly upset. The pack emerged from Snow Canyon and descended with reckless abandon, barreling toward T2 at 39 miles per hour. Ditlev tucked in tight and tried to get any advantage he could, entering T2 with a bike split of 1:49:59, nine seconds ahead of Blummenfelt and Funk. But that advantage was erased in transition as Blummenfelt moved from bike to run in a seamless 29 seconds while Ditlev floundered for nearly twice that amount of time. In the end, it was Blu who started the run first. Would this mistake cost Ditlev the race? The Run Though Blummenfelt set out at a 5:47 minute-per-mile pace, his lead didn't last long. At mile 2, he had company in the form of Kanute, who was throwing down 5:16 splits. As he passed Blummenfelt, Kanute turned the screws even more, dropping the pace to a staggering 4:55 minutes per mile. But this didn't shake Blummenfelt, who stayed right on his heels and let Kanute drive the pace for the next eight miles. The effort allowed the two to pull away from the rest of the field. At the five-mile point, the pair had build a 40 second lead over Ditlev and more than two minutes on Funk, Noodt, and Taagholt. But bridging the gap to the front was not the priority for the chase pack – instead, it was holding off a hard-charging Laundry, who was making quick work of moving from eighth off the bike to fifth place. Could he run his way into a podium spot? And then, a dramatic twist: At mile six, Iden simply stopped, sat on the curb, and said “No more.” As he removed his race bib and exited the course, the residual fatigue from his Ironman World Championship victory three weeks prior was evident; defending his 70.3 title was simply not in the cards this year. It would be up to his friend and countryman to bring home the win. Blummenfelt stepped up to the challenge. With only three miles to go, he made his move, taking two steps around Kanute and forging ahead. This time, there was no looking over his shoulder – Blummenfelt was laser-focused on the finish line. His stride opened up, and he pulled away, opening up a gap of more than 20 seconds in less than a mile. All the shell-shocked Kanute could do was watch the Norwegian disappear into the horizon. With a half-smile, half-grimace on his face, Blummenfelt thundered to the finish line at a pace of 4:36 minutes per mile. It was only in the final stretch to the finish line that he relaxed, offering waves and high-fives to the crowd on his way to a run split of 1:11:39 and a final finishing time of 3:37:12.

Small Talk over sport, bewegen, fun en innovatie met Ronald Stolk
Met een aantal overwinningen op zak, waaronder het NK OD U23, TRI Huizen en IM 5150 Maastricht, stond Ian Pennekamp afgelopen nacht (Nederlandse tijd, red.) aan de start bij de World Triathlon Championship Finals U23 in het Canadese Edmonton. Met zijn 24e plaats tankte hij daar vooral ervaring. Iets waar hij, als één van de jongste deelnemers, ook voor kwam.De wedstrijd werd gewonnen door de Hongaar Songor Lehmann, die 1:46:47 uur voor zijn wedstrijd nodig had. Vier seconden later pakte de Duitse Tim Hellwig het zilver en weer vier seconden later lag het brons klaar voor de Australische Matthew Hauser. Pennekamp volgde met een tijd van 1:52:04 een aantal minuten later.Het eerste verschil werd al gemaakt tijdens het zwemmen. Waar de snelste zwemmers hoog in de achttien minuten zwommen, had Pennekamp een minuutje langer nodig voor zijn 1500 meter. Vervolgens reed de kopgroep op de fiets bijna drie minuten harder – Pennekamp deed 58:28 minuut over zijn 40 kilometer – en ook tijdens de run verloor de Nederlander, in ieder geval ten opzichte van de snelste lopers, iets meer dan een minuut. Toch beleefde Pennekamp met een looptijd van 32:17 minuut een geweldig laatste onderdeel, want hij zette daarmee de zevende tussentijd neer.Eerder gingen Barbara de Koning en Maya Kingma van start tijdens de World Triathlon Championship Finals.

THIRD ANNUAL ENDURANCE EXCHANGE TO TAKE PLACE VIRTUALLY MARCH 3-5, 2022 COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The third annual Endurance Exchange presented by BOA Nutrition, an industry-wide conference for endurance professionals and athletes, will be held as a state-of-the-art virtual event March 3-5, 2022. This online experience for the second consecutive year affords everyone an opportunity to safely learn, share and network, and provides reduced costs and added flexibility for attendees. While the goal continues to be to bring the community together annually for an in-person conference, USA Triathlon received overwhelming feedback in a survey it sent a few months ago that many were still recovering and the cost of travel and lodging, as well as job professional and personal obligations, made a virtual conference the best option in 2022. The conference will also record all live sessions and provide attendees the option to view sessions on-demand on their own schedule for three months after the event. Endurance Exchange is a joint effort to grow, inspire and support the multisport community by bringing industry stakeholders together to learn, share best practices, network and collaborate. The virtual format in 2022 will once again be hosted on Cvent and encourage participation from an even wider range of multisport constituents. The event is open not only to those involved in the business of triathlon, but also to multisport enthusiasts of all types — from beginners to competitive age-group athletes to Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls — as specific athlete-focused sessions will cater to all skill and experience levels. USA Triathlon is continuing to explore options for in-person educational, resource sharing and networking opportunities later in 2022 and will provide additional information as details are finalized. New in 2022, this year's event will feature a content track specifically for multisport club leaders and administrators, and two options for the Athlete Insider track for novices or advanced athletes. Attendees can also expect additional engaging and interactive features, including live polling, in-session chats, in-session surveys, and prizes for the most engaged conference attendees. Registration for the 2022 event is now open at enduranceexchange.com at early-bird pricing of $150 for the All-Access track and $45 for the Athlete Insider track. All registrants will also have the opportunity to purchase or extend their USA Triathlon annual memberships for 12 months at a discounted rate of $35. Attendees will have the opportunity to earn up to 10 coaching and/or race director CEUs. Nearly 1,100 members of the multisport community attended virtually in 2021 to engage with more than 60 hours content across nearly 80 sessions and more than 130 speakers. Registrants should expect a similar volume of content in 2022's edition. The conference sessions will run from approximately 10:30 a.m.-6 p.m. EST on Thursday, March 3 and Friday, March 4, and from approximately 10:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. EST on Saturday, March 5. For the third year, USA Triathlon is offering a limited number of Together We Thrive Endurance Exchange scholarships to foster diversity and bring varied perspectives to the event. Interested candidates may apply here. Priority will be given to people of racial and ethnic minorities, women, and those who may not otherwise be able to attend due to financial constraints. More information about session topics and speakers will be available at enduranceexchange.com as details are finalized.

Het NK sprint, het grandioze seizoen maar de enigszins opmerkelijke keuze van Maya Kingma, jonge atleten die enorm sterk aan de weg timmeren en dan ook nog eens een aantal grote, hopelijk prachtige wedstrijden die de komende weken op het programma staan. Het waren drukke weken en het worden drukke weken: het triathlongeweld is echt losgebarsten!
Een intro is overbodig. Vijf jaar keken we met z'n allen uit naar de Olympische Spelen en met maar liefst twee vrouwen aan de start werden we in dat opzicht sowieso al verwend. Nog meer werden we verwend met de prachtige en historische vierde plaats van Rachel Klamer. Zeker ook de elfde plaats bij het debuut van Maya Kingma was om te genieten. Dat en meer in deze 3athlon Praat.

Afgelopen weekend stond natuurlijk in het teken van het NK Standaard Distance. Maya Kingma en Jorik van Egdom maakten daar hun favorietenrol waar. Daarnaast een mooi weekend voor Menno Koolhaas, die zaterdag nog wel een valse start beleefde door een lekke band, maar zondag sportieve revanche nam door de 043 Triathlon te winnen. Ook mooi om Niek Heldoorn de overstap naar het langere werk te zien maken, dus ook hij komt voorbij. Daarnaast een opmerkelijke situatie in Vichy en een ontploft bommetje over de verdeling prijzengeld van Teamcompetities.
We staan stil bij het overlijden van Henk Bahnerth, de favoriete hardlooptrainer van Pim. Een 95-jarige man die training gaf met meer dan 70 jaar loopbagage in zijn zak en dat deed in een geheel eigen vocabulaire. Ook maken we, in aanloop naar de Spelen in Tokio, een uitstapje naar de triatlon. We bellen met Maya Kingma, die daar eerst zwemt, dan fietst en vervolgens loopt. Ze vertelt hoe zij die disciplines in haar voorbereiding combineert en welke keuzes ze maakt. Die Spelen... het begint ondertussen meer en meer te kriebelen.

Maya Kingma had been racing on the ITU triathlon circuit for years, but has suddenly broken out this past year, placing 3rd at Yokahama and winning outright at Leeds -- to the point she's considered a favourite at the Tokyo Olympics later this summer. She credits visualization with being a huge reason she's finally reaching her physical potential! We talk to her about how she has used visualization techniques to reach her highest potential!

Na het daverende succes van Sarissa de Vries, deed Maya Kingma dat afgelopen weekend gewoon even over: met een derde plaats bij de WTCS in Yokohama liet ze opnieuw zien bij de wereldtop te horen en zelfs een serieuze kanshebber voor Olympisch succes te zijn. Daarnaast hebben we het over een waarschuwing van AthleteSportsWorld - zorg dat je triathlonspullen tijdig koopt vanwege schaarste - en een vacciniatiebewijs voor Ironman Lake Placid. Tot slot komt ook de RTL 7 documentaire over Challenge Almere en de triathlonsport in het algemeen voorbij.
The Netherlands' Maya Kingma, who scored a first World Cup podium in Karlovy Vary in September, joins us to talk about that magical moment, the pros and cons of virtual racing and her day job creating mind-reading software.
