T100 "cake and arse party" in Dubai, to Himalayan Highs
Published 11 months ago
Description
In true Brick Session fashion, Mark doesn’t hold back as he unloads on what he famously calls the T100 “cake and arse party” in Dubai — and yes, there may be a bit of swearing, so consider yourself warned. As always, Caroline brings a more balanced perspective as the two of them break down the many factors that led to athletes miscounting bike laps and failing to complete run course.
In a thought-provoking segment, Caroline asks whether a formerly banned (doping) triathlete should still be allowed a voice in the sport? Mark’s answer might surprise you.
This episode also dives into Mark and Caroline’s recent Himalayan adventure, where they completed the full Manaslu Circuit in just 5.5 days. A route that normally takes two weeks or more. They share detailed insight into altitude, acclimatisation, what to do if severe sickness hits, and practical tips for anyone dreaming of a high-altitude expedition.
Finally, they express heartfelt thanks to everyone who has generously donated to the Peak Education Nepal charity.
A packed episode full of honesty, adventure, insight, opinion — and plenty of Brick Session character. Enjoy!
