PTO need to pay you a commission. You have done so much for hyping this race, and your stories last night were 10/10 more entertaining than the coverage. Also, this video is fantastic + put together so quickly?! Legend.

Jack needs to be on the commentary team for these races.

The PTO commentary is lacking. Jack has the love for the sport. It’s a no brainer… Jack is the man. Ironman in my opinion has way better commentary.

You've done 2 great things with this overview: 1. No spoiler title unlike eurosport and many others crap services 2. A brilliant overview with very precise and deep knowledge of the current situation in sport. THANK YOU!

I was also impressed that he was going and getting drinks for his fellow competitors in the recovery area. That was special as it says a lot about the guy - respect

Great recap. You are also a star Jack for giving professional triathlon racing a better media platform. Keep up the good work.

I was actually surprised at how well Frodo performed after being out of racing for almost 2 years. I would not write him off just yet. With another few months of training, he is certainly a contender for world champion and PTO #1, which is crazy given his age of 41.

IM is tragic

in 1977, I was on a team for the Lanai to Maui relay swim race. On my 6 man team were a couple of older Marines. They asked me if I would be interested in participating in something they had conceived and done the previous year. A 2.6 mile ocean swim, a 112 mile bicycle ride and a marathon length footrace. Of course I said no. Knowing these guys were nuts and nobody in their right mind would do such an undertaking. And I was right! Originally on Oahu, these guys started the Triathlon. And the challenge accepted grew so rapidly that it was eventually moved to the Big Island where more participants would encounter less obstacles and congestion. Hats off to those Marines and all Iron Man finishers.

I was on the roads yesterday so I could not watch the race live. Your IG stories were the only thing that kept me up to date with what is going on in the race and I felt like I right in the Ibiza. Your stories were amazing. I felt so hyped! Keep the good work Jack. Love what you do for the world of triathlon!

By far ... the best overview of races I´ve ever seen ! No spoilers, bringing emotion to the scene, and commenting things that only true fans would know ! Keep doing it bro !!!! Congrats !

After watching nearly the whole race, this commentary actually gave me goosebumps. Amazing video and analysis!

Great Analysis. Thanks for posting so soon after the race.

Great work mate putting that together so quickly. Excellent race review.

Fantastic post race summary. Your work is so good for the triathlon world! Keep it up!

What is amazing, is I watched the whole race and enjoyed it a lot... It hadn't dawned on me how good it actually was until I watched your highlights! Loving your work!

Thanks for the great video and commentary. Looking forward to seeing more of these!

This story-telling in this video is exceptional. Well done!

Max - just an absolute humble athlete. Tough as nails, honest, hard working and personable. Like it was said “take a bow”. Congrats.

Great video. Thanks.

Awesome video! thanks!

Jack, This was a brilliant recap of an epic race with some of the biggest stars the sport has ever known; great work!

Most entertaining race recap I’ve seen in decades, great work Jack

great recap thanks!!!

Your channel is the best! Great review, amazing, it is something.

very well said.. thanks a lot HTT keep it up

Nice review. I think the big 3 all delivered and helped build this into an amazing race, added to that Max, Kylie and Magnus. All brought their best on the day and 1 won, just not who most could predicted.

One should keep in mind that Jan Frodeno is 41 years old. Every top 10 performance (especially in a half ironman) of him is an unbelievable achievement.

Dude. Awesome storytelling. I feel like this is the trailer for “Humble, The Max Neumann Story” in theaters fall 2023

Feel as much the passion for the sport in the racing guys as in Jack. What a summary! 🎉

Very enjoyablke watch!! Keep it up!!

Amazing wrap up! Your story telling is just 👏🏻👏🏻 Get on the commentary team!!

fantastic video

The way max was running after that swim and bike.... that's what you call mutant hemoglobin levels 100% , you cannot run that fast so effortlessly clean. Mouth open not even breathing.

Epic video Jack! I thought the PTO's coverage of Max was really disappointing. Non-existent during the bike leg, almost condescending in the run leg. They obsessed over the norwegian method in the most general, fanboy & girl way that was irritating to listen to. And then comments from the public on instagram were just as ignorant, people have no expectation of him because he's not supported by the media! Anyway, it was very satisfying to see him take that win despite all of that!!

Excellent film. Well done.

Ripper recap of the biggest race triathlon has ever seen and still pinching myself to have seen Max’s best race of his life, against the best in the world. Take a bow indeed. Aussie triathlon back on top 🙌 can’t wait til world champs 🏆🇦🇺

Best race summary out there

I’ve watched this 1/2 dozen times - THANK YOU. I love this sport and this video captures all of its intrigue, enthusiasm & ruthless competition.

Extremely well done video 👏👏👏 Can you do one for the ladies too?

Brownlee and Frodo are past their prime though. Great race recap.

One of the first races I’ve watched start to finish, really enjoyed it. If the PTO could convince all the athletes to transmit live heart rate / power / gps data. This would be an awesome spectator sport. Relying on timing check points seems so outdated and so many times the commentators were behind what was actually happening because they couldn’t see live data.

People need to lay off the commentators a bit. It’s the info they should be fed from the producers that is lacking. Most people in the YT chats have better command of the apps for data but the commentators need be watching and commentating not chasing data sources. That has to come from others and fed to them.

@@rogerc23 from what I could gather they had the exact same info as we did. The next level would be live gps on each athlete so they no exactly where everyone is. Either that or they have one of the commentators just glued to the stats and constantly giving updates on the big movers. The moment when blummenfelt dropped frodeno for example would of been a great tv moment but was completely missed. I’m not bashing on the commentators just suggesting ways the coverage could improve.

The other big one they missed was Blu passing everyone on the run to take 2nd. For this race I was loving watching until the women started. The whole going back and forth is just annoying and I would rather watch each race separately. They did it as best they could with the timing but I’d just prefer them separate for PTO distance.

Jack you need to start doing live commentary videos during big races!

People are doing it for Cycling and Running but this is the best independant content for Triathlon - and antipidean! Chapeau! Max Neuman looked a bit good in Kona. With another season and his running laidlow, Ditlev and Brownlee will not want to start the Marathon in Nice with him.

Could you do some power analysis on this race?

Edge of my fucking seat!

What about when the commentary team asks about Max’s emotions. And rightly so, he drops an F bomb.. They then say, can you not be emotional and watch your language… I was really disappointed in the commentary team for going on about it and shutting him down. Let him speak and then apologise later or beep it out.

What a fucking savage all these athletes are.

All drugged up to the eye balls. Still amazing even with drugs

WOW!

Great to see an Aussie at number 1. A genuine champion and dark horse in World Champs

the aussie accent by the narrator hinted at the outcome :)

Islands have the perfect atmosphere for a triathlon

Kristian has the ultimate dad bod, but he actually has really solid run efficiency

Gotta get maxy back on man!!! Legend. Actually tipped him.

What an EPOchal victory for Max Neumann…

Ironman Hawaii 2006 was at least as exciting. Normann Stadler, McCormack, Faris ... what a joy to watch that was!

2k swim, 80k bike, 18k run

Jan Frodeno is 41 years old. I think that's worth mentioning.

Great review. While Alistair Brownlee was one of the best 10k triathlon runners he’s a long way from the best. He’s clocked 28:32 on the track, probably quicker than everyone other than Alex Yee who’s run a staggering 27:51 on the track. Best off the bike- probably, but not the outright fastest.

His post race interview was Strayan af

Rumor has it that this race was actually ped free too

Is that Eric Senseman? He ain't surprising nobody

What happend to his videos? Were they copyrighted?

Pto is great fore the sport and this race was great. But the male 2018 70.3 World Championship is the best race i ever seen.

Guaranteed the top finishers are ‘juiced’ one way or another.

"Due to no one really giving a fuck about women's sports, we will be covering the men's race today" 😂😂

Why you keep referring to this as long course triathlon? It's not even a 70.3 distance. Also, disagree with the comments on Jan - he's back from ~2 years of almost inactivity and everyone expected him to struggle more on this shorter distance. Let's see him on the Ironman distance and with some more training in the legs.

Best race i would say. Is hands down the 70.3 world champs in south africa.

Great win by Max. The coverage was good visually but there was a real lack of good information in my opinion.

if that's the best i would truly hate to see the worst.

Well this race was stacked with names but the greatest race? No way. It did not have enough drama and - more importantly it was no championship. The one day where it really counts in a year so all bring their A-Game. Of course no one of the top guys wanted to show a bad performance, but there is a big difference... Ps: these 100k are no real long course. 😢 why dont they just do a 70.3 distance race. This current shortening is better for the short distance guys...
