I don't know if this gets mentioned enough... but I think one big reason many people lack interest in the Nice WC ( even 70.3 sometimes) is that unlike Kona, anyone can race those courses during the year in the regular event. They lack that special feeling of Kona, where you can only race it (the full IM) if you qualify.
I know every situation is different, but the honorable thing to do is pull out of these T100 races at least one week out so you can give other athletes a chance to make travel plans and prepare for the race.
If you think about it, T100 for men is basically short course. The top T100 guys are generally not Ironman guys, and the top Ironman guys are typically not T100 (Laidlow is the exception I guess). But in women's, the top women are the same top in every distance. Top Ironman is top 70.3 is top T100

I would die if Hayden and/or Leo come to T100!!! I really hope they don’t stay in WTCS jail for the next 4 years.
Nice? Didn’t you hear the rumours 🤔👀 what do you think about the kona rumours?
Just rumors IMO if anything change would be only for 2027
Every mention of Chelsea Sodaro, no matter how minor, must include the fact that she is a mother.
😂
Wait, is she a mother!? 😂
