From New York to Augusta: Jackson Laundry Wins, Nick Chase Podiums

The crew recaps a chaotic race weekend that turned a canceled New York 70.3 into an unexpected trip to Augusta—and a standout day for the team. Jackson Laundry explains his winning performance, while Nick Chase shares how he raced to a career-best 70.3 podium at age 40. Lisa Becharas also talks about a frustrating mechanical at the World Triathlon Championships in Spain, exhausting travel, and the group’s ongoing debate over future races in Florida, New Zealand, and Western Australia. Plus, the athletes recount their last-minute road trip from New York to Georgia and discuss racing with Race Ranger.
