Not often Spanish domestic triathlon gets much coverage, but this one’s worth it, touch of the Alaphillipes.

We have another attempt to produce a new format for triathlon on Eurosport tomorrow, live from that home of all forms of sporting innovation, :SVK.  Some familiar names involved.

Slovakian weather letting us down - cold, wet & windy.  Didn’t realise this was the actual Danube they are swimming in. Long way from being blue, although the swimmers’ feet are.

yeah the weather is sadly not good last two-three days and the rain and cold is expected for the whole weekend until next Tuesday.

 

and yes, the Danube is rather known being a bit dirty river, everything in the Bratislava region is in fact :p

Am getting a bit overwhelmed by the profusion of different triathlon formats, but all the big names who won’t be in Hamburg will be in, or on, Jersey :JEY competing in the Super League Triathlon event there.  Live on BT Sport here in :GBR, highlights on Eurosport elsewhere.

Flora Duffy’s homecoming event in Bermuda scheduled for next month is a COVID casualty.  Hopefully a postponement rather than a cancellation.  :(

Another two meet weekend. The world’s best are in Malibu :USA for the final race of the Super League Series.  For the strivers, it’s the European Championships in Valencia, :ESP.

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:
