They preview the season openers (Ironman New Zealand, Dallas 70.3 and other early races), debate flying vs. driving to races, equipment trends, and the growing pro start lists. Plus the usual Pass or Smash, Grinds My Gears, and chat about taxes, pool etiquette, and public transit. Honest, funny, and straight-from-the-coach insights for racers and fans. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-real-triathlon-podcast-1222957/episodes/over-training-travel-and-the-first-pro-races-of-the-year/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-real-triathlon-podcast-1222957/over-training-travel-and-the-first-pro-races-of-the-year.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
