Abu Dhabi build up: Championship Finals podcast and Fantasy Triathlon game

The build up to this week’s big showdown in Abu Dhabi continues with a special preview edition of the World Triathlon Podcast and the launch of the elite men’s and women’s Championship Finals fantasy triathlon game on obstri.com.

To be a part of the obstri fantasy family, simply create an account on the website then choose the top five men and top five women finishers at the Championship Finals Abu Dhabi, then make picks for the fastest athletes out of the water, fastest bikers and fastest runners for extra points. Be sure to join the World Triathlon Family league and you’ll be able to compare your swim-bike-run know-how against friends as well as the world’s triathletes and triathlon experts.

Over on episode 68 of the World Triathlon Podcast, Gillian Sanders and Tommy Zaferes give their inside takes on the season so far and preview the Championship Finals deciders as Hayden Wilde, Alex Yee, Jelle Geens and Leo Bergere prepare to do battle for the men’s title, Georgia Taylor-Brown and Flora Duffy the women’s.

From the potentially huge difference that just a couple of degrees change in temperature could make in the water, to the athletes’ abilities to handle the unique pressures that standing on the cusp on the year’s biggest prize in the sport will bring, the duo provide the perfect accompaniment to the big race build-up, and as always you can download and listen on the go via Spotify, Apple and Google.

The live action begins over on TriathlonLive.tv on Thursday 24 November, when the Para Triathlon World Championships get underway from 8am local time. Friday will see the women’s and men’s U23 World Championships from 7.30am local time before the elite women at 1pm. Tune in from 3pm on Saturday as the elite men go out, plus you can discover start, transition and finish coverage of Thursday and Saturday’s Age-Group action. Set those reminders now!
