The Crushing Iron Podcast puts you in prime position for a great start on January 1, 2018. Good decisions happen from the right state of mind but often we make big decisions from a bad place.

Today, the Crushing Iron Podcast tackles training/race etiquette and some of the funny things that happen in triathlon. What do you do when someone won’t offer to share a lane at the pool? How do you handle “on your left?” Would you stop if someone fell down in front of you during a race? Plus, is there anything worse than a GI issue after 6 months of training? The guys give some solutions. And how do you justify buying new equipment, or a bike? Some of today’s topics:

Happy Thanksgiving from the Crushing Iron Podcast. Despite the title, this podcast is more about grace and gratitude.
Today we take a look at how to be thankful for the ABILITY to do triathlon. It's easy to get into a funk, but that doesn't mean your year is ruined and you're not going to have a great season. The key is not BECOMING your rut. When's the last time you were proud of the process of how you emerged from the funk? We may not be where we want to be, but we've made the choice to get there.

- The challenge that changed her life
- Why body building made her start to hate herself
- Going from 500 calories a day to 500 on a long bike ride
- Fear of the Swim
- What convinced her to leave body building
- From figuring out how to swim to signing up to a Half
- Was she more nervous for a Sprint or Ironman?
- How her lifestyle set her up for the fast track to Ironman
- Her post-Ironman struggles
- What's next?
- The emotional roller coaster of the journey.
- Her favorite part of training for an Ironman

Why so many people “stay average”
The power behind “the little things”
“If I fail more than you, I win.” – Seth Godin
Happiness is not an action, it’s a state.

Something was missing in Somer Scandridge's life. She loved being a mom and taking care of her two kids every day, but she began to resent the fact that she didn't have something for herself. Her husband was gone every day finding fulfillment in a job that he loved while she felt she was lacking adult interaction. What started as a couple's spin bike venture quickly turned into a new and deep passion. Today she shares her story and encourages other stay at home moms (or dads) to ignite a new fire. And how that passion has made the entire family happier.
Squadcasts is an ongoing series with our current C26 Triathlon athletes. They will be added as bonus podcasts within the main released casts on Monday and Thursday. We hope that you enjoy hearing stories from everyday athletes who have similar challenges and struggles as they grow in the sport.

One of the hardest parts of training is getting out of our own way. It's very easy to go "too hard" or "not go" when it comes to workouts, so having a clear grasp on WHAT'S RIGHT FOR YOU is the biggest part. Sometimes it's all about training your "state" of mind and body. Are you talking yourself into something that will hurt you in the long run? Track workouts, Off Days, Training Ruts, and bagging races.
Topics for today:

We shouldn't decide to go pro or quit based on one workout . . . or race. The key to racing well is enjoying training, and that takes patience. The short-term power in being able to let go of the outcome. The ability to "be in the moment" is much different than being a prisoner of that moment and today we lay out several different ways to stay energized about the long-term potential of your triathlon experience.

No one wants to be uncomfortable but facing tough situations is where we find growth. Today we look at how to embrace fears we may have of the swim, bike, or run and adjust or push past them.

We also talk about complacency as a fear when you might actually be satisfied with something you can do better.
- Becoming the strongest version of yourself when it's hard
- How negative thoughts manifest in your body
- We create our world through thoughts and the body responds
- Thoughts have to be entertained to have power
- Don't race with your old resume
- Stop limiting yourself

- I'll just do it tomorrow
- Wants vs. Needs with regard to training
- Where's the joy when improvement are harder to see?
