Triathlon training should be structured, but we're all about keeping the fun alive. Today, we talk about weaving them together to make the process more enjoyable and effective. We put a lot of pressure on ourselves to show up green in Training Peaks, but aren't a bunch of oranges and yellows better than a week of red? Do we move to change our mood or change our mood to move? There's a lot of power in having a solid outline and moving a little off script. How to recognize what's the best decision for today. Is your workout appropriately challenging for your mental and physical state? Who wins, the human or athlete? Plus, Mike's soup can analogy.
