Shownotes

If you tuned in last week, you heard our chat with pro triathlete Lizzie Rayner cut short when anti-doping officials knocked on her door mid-recording.

So this week we’re back for Take Two. Lizzie joins the squad to share all the details of her anti-doping. Then, they dive into the start of the Ironman Pro Series season, and hear about her journey from a teenager inspired by London 2012 to 8th place pro at the 70.3 World Championships.

  1. Race season is officially here: The team previews Ironman New Zealand, which kicks off the 2026 Ironman Pro Series season. With big names on the start list and Kona qualification on the line, athletes are already stacking early-season points.
  2. IM Pro Series v. T100: How do athletes decide?
  3. Going all in on triathlon: While working with a professional cycling team—making bottles, rice cakes, and supporting riders—Lizzie realized she wanted to be the one actually racing.

What's changed this year? Her confidence! Watch out world.
