Let’s take a little look at your future. Are you training for the right why? Are you letting results drive the train or the process? Stimulate, don’t obliterate. Today, we talk about why it’s okay to just feel good and how you can compliment your state of wellness. We should be proving things to ourselves, not other people. What have you learned this year and how will you take that forward?
Note: We’ll be taking next week off so we wish you a Merry Christmas and thank you for being a part of our journey!

Are you taking enough chances in training and racing, or do you like to play it safe?
Today we talk about self-experimenting within the plan. Testing your limits a little bit to unlock the same routine. We also look at how to analyze a regret and use it as a positive. How do you know what’s right? You have to explore a little on the journey.

One of our responsibilities as a triathlete and a human is to figure out things that work best for us. Stress affects us all differently and one way to deal with it is to not take ourselves so seriously. Life is all about making deposits and withdrawals, where is your energy going? A big part of this sport is believing we belong and nourishing our own box. The minute we get too rigid with ourselves, we’re losing the point. Every great swimmer, cyclist, or runner has their own form and approach. We have to carve our own way and define our own success. How do we get more comfortable in our own skin and the spandex we wear on top of it?

Modern life is loaded with inputs and sometimes we have to disconnect for our sanity. Today, we take a different perspective on the off-season. How can we get better without directly putting your energy into traditional triathlon activity? If you’re already jacked up about your race next Fall, you are probably running a little too rigid. There’s a time and place to sharpen the tip of the spear and starting now will likely lead to burnout. Give your mind and body some space to refuel with different angles that relate to your overall health and well-being. Relax and get back to your true center.

What are the little (but important) things that make us better athletes? Today, we look at how to work at training in a way that makes racing feel “easier.” We talk about going east and west to balance our perpetual north and south movements in triathlon. We get into the efficiency of movement and how to train in ways that make swim, bike, and run “click” in the mind. We talk about natural movement and how “thinking” can slow us down. It is often the little things that make you better than your opponent, and . . . can help make your training much more effective in the long run.

Now is a good time to be thankful you have decided to be active and are able to do the things we do. Swim, bike and run isn’t easy, but it’s a decision to invest in your health with your eye on feeling healthy and strong as long as you can. Today, we look at the challenges of triathlon from a wide lens and talk about the ability to see the big picture of your happiness and healthy journey in life. Staying positive isn’t some gimmick, it has real consequences in the ability to keep moving the right direction and hopefully feeling younger as we get older.

In a way, this could be titled “small win season” but the trick is figuring out where to best put your energy. We all have weaknesses but identifying them and investing time in the right place is the catch. Today, we look at different ways to make progress so you’re not the same athlete next year as you were this season. Getting better doesn’t always have to be hard. Put your energy in the right place.

Are you focused on getting a workout done, or getting better? Today’s cast is largely about swimming, but the technique discussion applies to bike and run, too. It actually applies to everything in life if we’re being honest. We get into creating the wrong form so you know what’s right. We look at how most triathletes training patterns actually make racing harder. We look at ways to build economy and make things feel easier. We talk about having the confidence to work on the rudiments knowing that you’ll be a better athlete in the spring. Slowing down to get better and training to heal.

Today we open it up to some of our own athletes to ask questions. We get into races that may not live up to the hype, Travel, stress, and exhaustion, sleep, fueling for health, a quality of life perspective, and lowering cortisol levels. We also talk snow shoes, cross country skiing, and when is the appropriate time for Christmas decorations.

What was the state of your mind, body and spirit at this time last year? We look at how triathletes can get trapped in a cycle and spend time working on things that don’t move the needle. More “can” be better but we contend being more specific with your time can give you better results. We look at races as a driving force, the simple concept of repetition is the key, and look restraint vs. over reaching. How to get more out of your time and make sure you’re not dealing with the same dilemmas this time next year.

In honor of Mike's dad's favorite Ironman pre-race song, "Let's get it started . . . now." No more overthinking. No more premature optimization plans, just go and don't let information overload push something off to tomorrow, or next month. The digital comfort food is slowing down your progress. Get supportive people around you and let it rip in what might honestly be the most important time of the year. Figure things out on the fly. What works for you. What doesn't. Now more wallowing in the past or being afraid of the future. Let's get it started.
