The cross-country season is underway, and there's plenty happening on both sides of the Atlantic.

In this bonus episode, Conor is joined by Elizabeth Egan, co-founder of www.trackathletes.ie, the brilliant website dedicated to following Irish athletes, their results and performances around the world.

We hear how Elizabeth and Irish Olympian Louise Shanahan developed TrackAthletes.ie, and discuss the new collaboration between the website and The Final Split.

We also take a closer look at:

• The standout performances from the Irish Universities Cross Country Championships in Dundalk last weekend.
• Irish athletes who have been competing in the early NCAA races, including Anna Gardiner, Cormac Dixon, Cillian Gleeson and others at the Nuttycombe Invitational and elsewhere.
• How the NCAA cross-country system works, from invitationals and conference championships through to Regionals and Nationals.
• A preview of the main events at Autumn Open International at Abbotstown this weekend.
• Ireland's prospects at the European Cross Country Championships in Belgrade in December.

Plenty of names to watch, performances to analyse and predictions for the months ahead.
