Updates are pretty infrequent, but after 90km on the bike there are 10 guys riding together at the front. Doesn't happen too often!

Interview With Braden Currie – Ironman 70.3 Taupo Champion
Thank you for interviewing him. Even in NZ I don't hear too much about him. Keen to see what races he is planning to do to try to get some points. He must be doing some of the continental cups in NZ/Aus over our summer

ITU Athlete Laurent Vidal Passes Away
Laurent had a heart defect that they had known about for a few years now. I believe previously he had collapsed in a race and cardiac arrest in a pool last year (which forced him into retirement). Heart defects in athletes are fairly common, at least compared to the general population. The Sports Gene by David Epstein touches on this and is a good book.
I have no idea, maybe he did had done drugs at some point, but the fact that the very first post, in this forum, on this subject is about drugs is a little sad. I'm tempted to start a new RIP thread where none of this is mentioned.
I like the Slowtwitch thread on Laurent much more *braces for attack*
