About this episode
This may seem simple or boring but we believe it is the absolute key to successful racing. Be patient, often way longer than you think you need to be. When you pass or get pass matters. We also look at why people lose motivation in triathlon and the reason is often easy to fix. Do you train with a negative split mentality? Do you take what the course gives you? And we'll tell you why training by MPH is a losing battle. Topics: BBMC - Blake Becker shout out The power of holding back in training Ironman and Pacing Swim Gears How much time do you really save in the swim? When you're married to a pace Practicing restraint Lack of execution is the real problem Why your fitness doesn't show in races Paying the Piper Negative split training Slow starts Taking what the course gives you The goal is to pass at toward the end Roasted on the Stick Winning to pain ratio The mentality of fighting back The power of the pass Math lessons and correlation to pacing Who slows down the least?
