Crushing Iron Triathlon Podcast

There’s nothing better than being excited about the day’s training. So, how do we keep that feeling alive all year, or at least, more often? Today we start with a little state of Ironman discussion. Fulls cutback… 70.3’s on the rise… and maybe why. Then we look at the mindset of athletes and how they think of training and racing. Hard things might suck at times, but we can use them as a compass for life. We offer a lot of thoughts on how to take the rigidity out of training and make it more enjoyable. Your plan isn’t written in stone and it’s important to understand your body and how it feels each day. Be open to going longer if you feel it. Be okay with going slower or shorter. There is mystery in the training cycle. Some days we don’t think we have it and we do. Other times . . . Be aware of what’s going on, give yourself some love and flexibility. Find purpose in what you do. And what you’re training for is just one day. Save a little pain and effort for the race. Topics: Hoodie weather for Mike State of
