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, weâre 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 youâre already jacked up about your race next Fall, you are probably running a little too rigid. Thereâs 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.
Topics:
Feels like a harsh winter Training in cold vs. heat Distance yourself from the grind Time to experiment Load management syndrome Disconnect and re-energize We need space Take time away to think freely Fend off burnout Experimenting in your own mind Too Much Input Itâs all about energy Favorite bands with only two good albums When itâs forced Rigidity eats you up Overload and obsession Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance Sharpening the tip of the spear Connecting non-connecting ideas to triathlonMike Tarrolly - [email protected]

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 âeasier.â 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 âclickâ in the mind. We talk about natural movement and how âthinkingâ 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.
Topics:
Exertion levels in the cold Slow Month Season Vests and Ice Running North and South vs. East and West Efficient movement Tightening with age Yoga Dissipating energy Swimming with different strokes Where does your pedal stroke fatigue first? Creating weaknesses Using ALL of our muscles Neglecting strength, mobility, and stretching Wasting energy Making this sport EASIER Highlighting deficiencies âThinkingâ weâre in good shape Does it click? It sucks to suck at âthisâ Perfect practice makes perfect Thinking makes you slow The little things that make you better than your opponent Do it without thinking The 10% ruleMike Tarrolly - [email protected]

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.

What a race from Patrick Lange. Today, we look at how KONA unfolded and why, after all these years, it still comes down to the run . . . and maybe the swim? It's incredible to think that Lange may have strategically pulled back on the bike with a 4:06, but it definitely makes you want to look at the little things and how important they are in racing. Speed kills in shorter racing, but at the Ironman distance, mistakes can pile up. Making good decisions in your race (and training) often trumps technology, but it's all so tempting. Today, we get into many aspects of Ironman training and racing with a food for thought discussion.
Topics:
Execution for the win The incredible Patrick Lange Ditlev's grit Blummenfelt's struggles The amazing Cam Wurf (and Matt Hanson) Rudy von Berg, Sam Laidlow The swim course record The most underrated triathlete All the new methods, but . . .

Thereâs not much worse than starting each year from scratch with rusty joints and bones, so today we look at some strategies to get the most out of your âoff-seasonâ training. Many may seem non-traditional, but the biggest key is to enjoy what youâre doing and stay in the fitness ballpark. We get into flex months, the reality of too much intensity, spending time working on things that will matter the most next year and slowing down degradation of fitness. The long game is life, so be all in on your health.

Today, we tackle a thought provoking question. Whatâs harder, an Ironman or a stand alone marathon? Within this question are a lot of interesting thoughts about becoming a stronger endurance athlete. We compare the body blow mentality of doing and Ironman vs. the more intense effort it takes to do a marathon. We ask if most people really âraceâ an Ironman or survive? We look at the pain and pounding of a marathon. Levels of soreness vs. overall fatigue. Are we talking about the training input it takes to do either? Are we talking about just getting it done or racing? Are they two completely different sports?
Topics:
Early morning running Intervals, hill repeats, and Z1-Z2 Are most people way overtrained? Chasing a pace How much more running do we do for a marathon? Are you racing or surviving? Optimal marathon vs. Ironman pace in the run When does your body reject the speed? People to pace off of Crowds When people are shocked by their marathon pace 1 mile sprint vs. a 5k Do you need to do a marathon while training for Ironman?

Sometimes we talk with each other in a way to figure things out. Today, we dive into staying in the game, being in the moment, and living a life of experiences. We talk about letting outcomes ruin great journeys. We look at moving through things that give us fear. We get into shifting perspective on races that didnât quite go our way. We look at how being in person is so much different than an experience on a screen. Itâs so easy to fall into a comfort trap and it rarely gives us satisfaction. What will you regret if you donât try it? Itâs easy to think about a vacation or a big race all the time, but donât miss whatâs happening right now.
