Episode 586 - Travel and Health for Athletes. Tri News and Race Reviews

Bevan and Tim review all the racing from the weekend plus we discuss the future of the PTO and T100 series and the challenges faced by Australian triathletes in securing race opportunities.

We share an excerpt from the Guru Performance 'We Do Science' podcast in which Laurent Bannock discusses "Nutrition for Travelling Athletes" with Dr Shona Halson PhD. The chat covers practical advice on staying healthy whilst travelling and how to recover quickly including jetlag, the use of melatonin and caffeine, meal timing, travel fatigue and travel hygiene.
