This week, we discuss the recent news that Imogen Simmonds tested positive for Ligandrol, a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) known to enhance muscle mass and strength.

We explore the details of this case, its implications for her career, and the broader impact on the sport.
We then sit down with Mike Phillips, the new Ironman New Zealand champion and course record holder, to hear how his race unfolded and what this result means for the rest of his season.

Big changes are shaking up the world of triathlon and cycling! Georgia Taylor-Brown is making a major move to cyclingâwhat does this mean for her career and the sport?
Meanwhile, watching these events just got a lot more expensive, with Eurosport shutting down in the UK and Ireland and its coverage moving to another channel at a significantly higher price. What impact will this have on fans and the future of endurance sports?
We also take a look at the newly announced T1 eventâis this the PTO stepping up to compete directly with Supertri? And in the world of T100 racing, Lucy Charles-Barclay and Jelle Geens are the last two contracted athletes to be confirmed. But with Taylor Knibb dominating, we have to askâdo the female contracts even matter if no one can beat her?
