About this episode
There's a lot of beauty in bad days. They can remind us that we're in the ballpark, we still need work, or help us realize patience. We always have work to do and successful triathletes don't get too high or too low depending on the day. So much of this sport is mental and if you can focus on controlling how you look at things, you will be in a better place to race. Just because a gadget is out there doesn't mean you need it. Some of the best athletes train by feel and effort. Also.. how bike training helps your run, how to adjust mindsets, and letting go of "easy." And… How to tell when your training is going well. Topics: From a training plan to coaching Negative split for the year Mike's wake-up call The concept of easy The beauty of Shit Shows The quick fix lifestyle The Hardest Ironman Training Plan on the Planet We always have work to do Always be hungry Ticket gate vs. crossing the turnstile Are you where you "think" you should be?
