#33 - So Many Start Lists!

This week we go through the start lists of T100 Singapore, Oceanside 70.3 and Challenge Roth and discuss the names that pop up a lot and the athletes that are missing.

Is this the first real time we are seeing the packed 2024 season causing scheduling issues for the pros? Why are T100 athletes still not racing T100 events? We also look at the changes to start lists for WTCS events and discuss if the T100 should have larger fields (they shouldn't)
