Today we’re talking race strategy, and more importantly how to handle the demands of race energy. We look at an honest evaluation of your training and how that might, should, could translate in your race. We look at the realism of your potential at this time. We discuss planned and unplanned governors that can help keep you under control. We talk your “energy bank” and how not to overdraw in the swim. We discuss how most people blame their run, but it’s really their bike. And we get into the concept of leaving it all on the race course and the right way for you to think about emptying the tank. 

Topics:

  • Race performance is objective
  • The origin of the Crushing Iron podcast photo
  • Ask yourself - Did my training meet the requirements?
  • Are you living in a pipe dream?
  • How to be relaxed
  • Coach’s job: Take you week to week based on where you’re at 
  • Did you put in the work to get the result you wanted?
  • The governor you didn’t know you needed
  • Under fueling
  • You have the ability but you have to have the energy
  • Withdrawals from the energy bank start in the swim
  • Certain parts of the race demand more energy
  • Everyone blames the run because it’s last
  • Be proud of your effort
  • Pre-race excuse building
  • Empty the tank in the way you want to
  • Be proud that you showed up!
