#854 – Training To Hit Your Race Goals


Listen Later

Do you keep struggling to hit your race goals but can’t figure out why? Today, we give you some clear thoughts and solid strategies to improve your swim, bike, and run speed. Are you selling yourself short in one or more of the distances just because one comes more naturally? We dive into specific training techniques that will help you build the right way with your eye on a certain race goal pace/power, etc… You are most likely selling yourself short, but it is possible. The hard parts are working hard enough, taking ample recovery, and being patient.

Topics:

  • Establish a demand of what you need to hold
  • How fast do you want to go?
  • Triathlon has different demands than a straight run race
  • Chipping away at a speed
  • Are you selling yourself short on the bike?
  • Do you have belief that you can do more?
  • What comes after setting a pace goal?
  • Race pace and what it means in training
  • Doing work above, at, and below goal pace
  • How to build your swim speed
  • Knocking down your 100 time in the water
  • Run pace and cutting it down
  • Shorter intervals at your goal paces
  • It is all realistic but it will take time
  • Swimming intervals in open water
  • Making recovery or distance decisions on the fly
  • Longer or shorter recovery?
  • Some days you might need more rest
