| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the TriDOT Podcast, fun episode today. This is the official 2025 Tridot holiday gift guide. |
| 0:10.1 | We've got a roundtable with four members of the TriDOT team, all coaches and triathletes ourselves, all here to share five items each that we think could make a great ad to your own gift wish list. |
| 0:24.7 | So trying to give you some shopping ideas here from us here at Tridot. |
| 0:28.9 | I'm joined by podcast host Vanessa Ronksley, coach Ken Pursuti from Victory MultiSport, |
| 0:34.8 | and coach Ben Somerville from Precision Coaching, all here to share some triathlete gift ideas, five each, 20 and all. |
| 0:42.1 | I'm Andrew the average triathlete, voice of the people, and captain of the middle of the pack. |
| 0:46.0 | We treat the show like any good workout. |
| 0:47.4 | We'll start with a fun, warm-up question, settle into our main set conversation, |

| 1:52.3 | you're most excited to participate in? |
| 1:55.4 | Coach Ben, what are you racing? |
| 1:57.1 | What are you excited about? |
| 1:59.2 | I'm so glad you asked me this question this week rather than |
| 2:02.6 | before because I've only just been entering races. So first up for me is a half marathon, local to me, |
| 2:08.6 | my local city of Bath in England, and next March. It was a race I was meant to do this year, |
