I unpack my Noosa Triathlon performance, before touching on my upcoming race at IRONMAN 70.3 Melbourne this weekend. Noosa was certainly not the performance I had dreamed of, but I draw great confidence from an improved run leg. See you in Melbourne!

Following an overwhelming response to the recent news that Ellie would be recieving no further WTCS starts for 2024, we decided to record an episode, and answer all of your questions! Ellie talks us through the justification for such a decision, how this heavily impacts her career, and what the future holds. She also reflects on her Olympic reserve selection, and experience in Paris.

I make my way home to Australia, and it honestly feels strange! Time certainly flies, and in a way, it feels like I never left. After being home for exactly one week, I am now off to the Whitsundays to race the Airlie Beach Triathlon, an event I won last year. 

Join me for the final instalment of the Europe Diaries! With plenty happening over the last month, it was nice to finally sit down and share the journey. I cover an array of moments, so stop reading, and start listening, haha!

Ellie shares her recent trip to France, where she was hit with food poisoning the night before her race. I hold down the forte in Vitoria and prepare for my next race at Challenge Gdansk. I also submitted my last ever university assignments, while Ellie sat three exams under supervision here in Spain. 

I take you through the moments that led to the viral sprint finish at Challenge Salou. A super long swim, a solo bike, and a well paced run totalled over 3:40 of racing, but it still came down to a matter of inches... Although initially bittersweet, the one now feels pretty good!
