The hottest Kona questions*

*That aren’t ‘who will win?’

Kelly reports from the ground in Kona — with interviews and insights from the brand press conferences. Why are there so many brand events and schedules this year?

And after a quick update on the non-Kona news of the week — including Alistair Brownlee’s analysis of the accuracy of VO2 estimates on smart watches, for some reason — we dive into all the industry news from Kona.

  • Who is being overlooked in pre-race media

  • What are the actual race numbers — and why aren’t they as big as was originally promised

  • Why are there so few women and will Ironman’s new initiative solve that

  • Are there really jellyfish

  • Are athletes really banned from biking on certain roads

Although we’re not doing a preview (because you can get that so many other places), we know you have predictions. So enter our podium predictions contest.
