Greg Harper is widely regarded as the fastest swimmer in long-course triathlon. He most recently led out of the swim at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships and joins the podcast today to discuss how and why so many triathletes miss the mark regarding their triathlon swim training. 

In this episode, we're joined by Nicole Falcaro, a pro triathlete and VP at Citi Bank. Nicole shares with us her tricks and habits for integrating a high-performance triathlon training program with a full-time job in a high-paced field.

Triathlon requires goals that are both process-based and outcome-based. On this episode the boys lay out their own goals. An episode of The Real Triathlon Podcast wouldn't be complete without questioning some of Nick's life choices, today that entails his perm. As you train, plan, and grow in 2025, please keep us on your playlist, and thank you for listening.

Nick and Scott dive into some REAL issues that athletes speak about and often struggle with. Personally, this was a super fun episode and chat since Nick really loves all things Fuelin and specifically the work Scott does with all levels of competition. The EndureAll Coaching system which is part of Real Triathlon Squad takes exceptional care of the athlete community we have built and we are so lucky to have them within our Triathlon ecosystem.

It's been almost 13 years since Joel Filliol uploaded one of Triathlon's most influential blog posts. Since its publication, the Top 20 Rules For Faster Triathlon Swimming has been foundational for many top triathlon swim programs. In this episode, the boys go through the second half of the rules to see if they still apply to the foundations of triathlon swimming today.
