Last week's IRONMAN World Championship was historic on many levels. We saw the IMWC raced on the big island after a two year pandemic induced hiatus. We saw the first two-day format with the women's race Thursday and the men's Saturday.

This week we have coach and age group Kona competitor Lauren Vallee joining us to review last week's historic Ironman World Championship.
