Yep very exited for this. Some really interesting interviews and other snippets on their social media pages. Like for instance each athlete randomly drew another's number to sort out the swim pontoons positions. Gomez drew Mario's and slightly shafted him by putting him on the worse side, and then Alistair drew himself.

Not entirely sure what sort of shape Alistair is in but if anything this format is probably better for him if his run isn't up to full power. He's got massive amounts of strength and endurance and can draw on his swim and bike. Will be interesting to see what Murray can do given how short the swim is. Will there be any repeat of the sort of cramping that Mola suffered from in Island House? Obviously Gomez is in good nick.

6x1km loops on the bike course could break it up nicely as well.
