Note: This is a repost and may talk about us living in Chattanooga and being at the race. Both are not accurate. The information about the course is, though! Enjoy and best of luck racing.

Overdoing the bike could cost you dearly on the run. We get into fueling and cooling strategy, how to know if and when you’re ready to push the bike/run. We talk about the hills, the flats, how to approach a downstream “long” swim, and critical run information that could make or break your race. 

This cast is from 2021.
