About this episode
You want to hit the next level, but what should you put more work into, swim, bike, or run? Today we look at ways to figure out where you should invest your time to reach the most potential. It's not always obvious and we tell you why. We look at time invested vs. improvement. How fatigue plays in. And why your race strategy could be tapping your run reservoir. Training 3 sports as one is complex, but we will help you find your weaknesses to overcome them to train and race with more purpose.
