This episode is all about how race day went down for the 2024 IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona! What a day of epic explosions from most of the favorites. Jackson had a tough day but he sure did his best to pay honor to this course. The RTS team was in support of Jackson and Team ZOOT for this journey and overall, things went incredibly well...it even rained a bit. Have a listen and enjoy the recap.

We train, travel, and race with the best conditions in mind, however, this race weekend was NOT expected to be so hard. It was especially hard to see the destruction caused by hurricane Helene for those traveling from Augusta to Chatty. Marc, Jackson, Lisa, Garrick, and Nick all talk about the whirlwind of a weekend where yes, we all still had the best time together. This episode is full of fun.
