GCN VS GTN Triathlon Showdown

The friendly rivalry between GCN and GTN finally reaches its boiling point as we go head-to-head in a full relay at the Bristol Triathlon. Si and Dan team up with a surprise swimmer to see if GCN’s cycling speed can overcome the Olympic-level expertise of GTN’s Heather and James. It's a battle of the "one-trick ponies" versus the multi-sport masters to see who really rules the office!

That swim gap was absolutely massive! 🏊‍♂️ Do you think a team of pure cyclists could ever beat a team of triathletes if the bike leg was even longer, or is the multi-sport advantage just too high?👇
