TSP1: What Is The Streak Podcast?

Let me tell you about the triathlon history podcast that I’m starting.
It’s only taken me nearly 15 years to hit the record button after reading a book called Podcast Solutions back in 2008.
I’ve also had 2 or 3 false starts but with a re-organised work schedule I’ve got way more time to dedicate to research, writing and recording.
And once again I'm enjoying the process of preparing the shows, tinkering with the gadgets and experimenting with audio quality and editing.
So on this podcast I’ll mainly be using my collection of vintage triathlon magazines to take a deeper look at the articles inside.
Stories that inspired me as a young triathlete and some that I’ve discovered recently. Whenever possible I’ll be talking to people who were there as well as exploiting the triathlon history resources available on YouTube.
So expect future episodes about the big races, the different race series that existed, the athletes, the bikes, the clothing and kit; and occasionally triathlon politics and controversy.
I’ll also be building my own experiences into the narrative to help explain the triathlon scene at the time. And although I’m starting with the late-1980s and early-1990s I'll definitely be exploring other periods.
At the moment I’ve got 12 episodes finished. So I’ll get them out as soon as possible. Before trying to drop into a weekly schedule. On Fridays.
