TSP8: The 1994 France Iron Tour With Scott Molina

Season 1 Episode 8

In June 1993 the 2 day Trophee SNCF was organised as a kind of proof of concept for sponsors, the federation, the athletes, and towns that might consider hosting a stage of a future France Iron Tour.

The triathlon press presented the organisational problems but also the successes. I went through all of that in Episode 7. But the overriding hope was that the race would be back (and longer)in 1994.

Well. Spoiler alert. It was.

On 31st August 1994 eleven teams of six men toed the line in Vichy to race four times in five days. Scott Molina was there and collaborated with me on this episode to help tell the story of the race.
