Are you at peace with your training/racing efforts, or is something holding you back? Today, we get into flirting with the fringe to explore your limits. We talk about real ways to get faster in this sport and where that process starts. We talk about tempo and interval work and how to understand your effort from Z2 through 100% and why it’s so important to push yourself in the swim and bike. We explain accumulated fatigue, how it feels and why it’s working. And finally, we explore delusional contentment.
