The P.M. Ticker: Claman, Casone, Wolffe, Kosisky

> It makes TVNewser tired just thinking about it, but FBN’s Liz Claman and Cheryl Casone are scheduled to compete in this Sunday’s NYC Triathlon. It’ll be the first triathlon for both women. Claman reports she’s been training five days a week (often at 5 a.m.), and Casone spends “six days a week in a pool, on a bike, or running…”

> Political analyst and author Richard Wolffe will fill in for Keith Olbermann tonight on Countdown. It’ll be the first time guest hosting for Wolffe, formerly with Newsweek, now with the D.C. office of Public Strategies.

> Former CNN producer-turned-filmmaker Brian Kosisky will make his feature directorial debut on a movie called Call of the Shadow Wolves, which is set to begin shooting in Arizona. Kosisky won a Gracie Award last year for Breaking the Curse with Daryn Kagan, a film that aired on PBS stations nationwide.
