It was another terrific weekend for British triathlon as Georgia Taylor-Brown and Alex Yee both registered brilliant victories at WTCS Montreal on Saturday.

Georgia gained revenge on Cassandre Beaugrand for that recent defeat in Leeds while it was a similar story for Yee as he outsprinted Hayden Wilde in a thrilling men’s race.

Tim Don and Ian Dempsey of Halo ID join us again for their weekend review, and this time it’s hailing the power and strength in depth of the sport domestically.

From the likes of Yee and Taylor-Brown right through to Kat Matthews and Ruth Astle at the iron distance, British triathlon is thriving.
