May 25, 2021

It was a massive weekend in Chattanooga and at the C26 Hub. We had fifty people racing and hundreds stopped in to say hi. Today, we reflect on Chattanooga 70.3 with a pretty intense reminder of how tough racing can be. We critique the swim start a bit and discuss how unfortunate it was to have the first cyclist in and last cyclist out so close together. We look at racing mistakes and how to work on them. And generally get into the principle of how race day means being ready to dig deep. 

Topics:

  • We’re out of “spectator shape”
  • This race felt back to normal
  • Swim start critique 
  • Did you underestimate the swim?
  • Were you diligent in cooling yourself all day?
  • When nutrition is overrated
  • Making smart decisions on the move
  • The number one way to beat the heat 
  • Shout out to the chill people race morning and the volunteers
  • We knew it was a slow swim as soon as we saw the water
  • People forget how hard triathlon is
  • Good wake up call race
  • We need to practice digging deep
  • When you should try to “blow up”
  • How cycling training translates to the race
  • Don’t assume anything . . . racing is unpredictable
  • Are you sure you over-biked?
  • It’s all about your mindset
  • What if you had to use a new bike on race day?
  • Learn from your race and practice

We can’t get faster every day. There has to be an unloading process to recover. Today we look at the point of taper, the importance of taking days off, and down weeks. We talk about heat and altitude acclimation, and how training should relieve stress. Sometimes you just don’t have it and there could be a simple reason: because you’re tired. As coaches we often look at a red in training peaks and see a green because it means your body needed it. Pressure equals force and all stress creates pressure. Identify what your body needs. What would you do if you had a choice day tomorrow?

Topics:

  • Taper Analogies 
  • Facebook group input
  • Follow C26 Triathlon on Instagram
  • Sometimes You’re Just Tired
  • Life Affects Your Body 
  • Heat Acclimation
  • Altitude Acclimation
  • Water temp and pace 
  • Mike’s teaching water aerobics?
  • Cookie Guilt
  • Job, relationship, life stress matters 
  • Control what you can
  • Triathlon should RELIEVE stress
  • Save the “gritting through it” for race day
  • I just didn’t have it today
  • When Red in Training Peaks is a Green
  • You have to unload
  • There’s no such thing as always going up
  • What would you do if you had a choice day?
  • The most exhausting days are mental
  • Pressure equals Force 
  • Embracing the Unknown

A lot of us use this sport as a vehicle to be better people and athletes but do you feel “free” or are you holding guilt, regret, and fear?

We start with Ironman 70.3 St. George talk and the Lionel Sanders/Sam Long battle. Also, talk Danielle Ryf and her self-awareness. Then we shift into racing free and letting it rip. The feeling, the mindset, and ability to love that place. We look at finding true joy in the journey of triathlon. Understanding small gains and the ability to truly care about yourself while using training and racing as a way to grow as a person. Turning inward and cutting off the need to reach for external energy. Filing away positives from good workouts and how to recognize lessons from “bad” workouts instead of carrying their burden. 

Topics:

  • This Year is Flying
  • Shoe and Watch Talk
  • Chattanooga 70.3 Events at C26
  • St. George 70.3 Coverage
  • Unbelievable scenery
  • Lionel Sanders puts hammer down
  • Bike for Show Run for Dough 
  • Sam Long - Strategic Mistakes?
  • Letting go and just running
  • Daniela Ryf and self-awareness 
  • Racing Free and Happy
  • Belief shifts Biology 
  • Is your desire slowing dying?
  • Do you get too close to the Flame?
  • Calm down 
  • Using Training and Racing to Grow as a person
  • Triathlon as a filler in life?
  • Constantly reaching for external energy  
  • What do YOU get from your workouts?
  • Carry lessons learned not the burden 
  • What was the REASON for a good workout?
  • You save the world one person at a time
