  • How to improve your triathlon running....without running

    Does it seem like you can never unlock that run potential during a triathlon? You're a stud during your workouts, but it always falls apart on race day? Listen to the coaches discuss what might be the thing holding you back, and give ideas on how to fix it. Spoiler alert, it isn't running more, or running harder.

  • Why is Swimming So Hard?

    The coaches tackle what most people would argue is the most challenging discipline to get better at. Especially if you are learning to swim as an adult. We discuss what tips and tricks helped us out when getting into the water and learning to swim. We then take a deep dive (see what I did there) into things you can do to improve your swim.

  • Triathlon Periodization, what does it mean and how to benefit from it. Part 1
    It's November, and here in the Northern Hemisphere that means cold weather and time to recover from the season. What better time than now to think about next season, your races, and how to best plan for them. We discuss how to plan out that big season picture (Macrocycle) and then begin to put the pieces in place. In part one, we discuss the general idea of periodization and the first few parts of your season, including recovery, base, and build.

  • Ironman 70.3 North Carolina Race Recap and 1 year anniversary show

    The crew sits down for our one year anniversary episode. Who would have thought we'd have stuck with this for one year and 44 episodes. Today is a long one, so buckle up. We talk all things 70.3 North Carolina, from the drive down to the dinner afterwards. We also hit on the race in the middle also.

    We end the show getting a little introspective on how the last year has gone, how we've changed, how we've grown, and the things we are looking forward to moving forward. It's been an awesome year, and if you've been with us since the beginning, we genuinely appreciate you taking time out of your schedule to listen.

  • North Carolina 70.3 Preview Show

    We are a week out from our last race of the year. We've been building towards this as our "A" race all season and we are beyond pumped to share an overview of the race, our goals and expectations. Come along as Coach James divulges the inner workings of his modeling software that allow him to predict our performance down to the second. If anyone out there is doing this race, either this year or in the future, we also discuss how to navigate a split transition, point to point race and the details that will make race day less stressful.

  • Jones Beach 70.3 Recap and How to deal with adverse weather conditions
    Coach James walks us through his epic experience at Jones Beach 70.3. An inaugural event with what was supposed to be close to 4,000 competitors and what ended up having pretty crazy weather conditions. After hearing his experience we dive into how to best prepare for the worst that mother nature might throw at you. We can't change the weather, but we can prepare for it. From what to wear, to how it might change pacing or fueling strategies, we try to cover it all. Listen along so that you can be ready for that next race if the weather doesn't decide to cooperate.
