“You begin saving the world by saving one person at a time; all else is grandiose romanticism or politics.” – Charles Bukowski
We start with thoughts about an Ironman finish line and the emotions that run through people in that moment.
It’s really a magical place and you can see that “I overcame life in that moment” on people’s faces. Then we dive into how to affect change in this world and why it starts with yourself. We look at our personal battles and being proactive at being better. It’s not about new bikes and gear, but how we can renew ourselves. It’s easy to blame the world, but we can fold the cards we have and ask for a new deck at anytime. Be committed to yourself and let triathlon enhance your human experience.

We had a great weekend here in Chattanooga with over 50 athletes racing. Today, we look back on the event and give you some insight into why you may have had a good or a bad race. We talk about our first experience as Ironman vendors, the water temperature flux, the heat, hills, and winds, etc… But we really get into HOW TO RACE a 70.3. We look at what it means to burn your biscuits vs. just toasting them a little. Also, how you can gauge your process and learn from mistakes. We also talk about fueling, why it is so tricky in a 70.3 and how to better simulate racing conditions before you race. Lots of great stuff in here about the inner workings of a 70.3 race. Thanks for stopping by our booth. It was great to meet everyone!

Note: Be sure to stop by the C26 Tent at the Ironman Chattanooga 70.3 expo.
Today is sort of part 2 for Chattanooga 70.3 with a heavy emphasis on swimming, including breathing, rhythm, cadence, and finding your stroke. Also lots of thoughts on the race along with proper training for YOUR body. We look at why most injuries happen, how to work on your balance, and most importantly, how to not overthink what you’re doing in the pool, on the bike, or while running. So much of this sport is being in the moment and by the time you “think” to do something, it’s probably too late. Good luck everyone!

We dig a little deeper into St. George, and today’s focus is on the Age Group Athlete experience. We break down the bike, the wind, the heat, and the death march of a run. We also discuss the idea of going into a race that you know you won’t PR. How does that impact your mindset, how can you learn, and how will it make you a better athlete? We also get into the post race emotion of such a tough race and the challenge of getting through the Ironman Rut.

We are super pumped about Ironman World Championships in St. George. It’s fresh, it’s new for everyone, and the course will be a big challenge for pros and age groups alike. Today we look at some course strategy, the pro field including predictions, and why this will be such a cool race to watch. This course will be the ultimate test of patience for triathletes and you may be surprised by what type of athlete should do well. Don’t burn your biscuits on the bike if you’re racing. The run course could prove daunting.

Today we look at how a triathlete’s approach and thought patterns affect them over the long run. Almost like getting faster without trying so hard. Triathlon training is about staying within yourself and building long stretches of “good” workouts. We look at the guilt of woulda and shoulda’s and look at why we might want to feel more grateful we even have the opportunity to use training as an option. Irresponsible expectations meet the ability to accept the idea that, “that just felt good.” In reality, how fast would you have to be to be happy and content? Will there ever be contentment without realizing and accepting that things are going the way they should be?
