This week, Eric is in South America shooting a film, so Paula and Nick take on the challenge of a two-person episode. We kick things off with some current events, a round of Swim Sets with Paula, and a brand-new segment, How Hard Can It Be, before diving into your listener questions.

This week, we discuss:

• Hot flashes unrelated to menopause
• Reducing sugar intake while still fueling training
• How pros get their country’s flag at the finish line
• Using a trainer to prepare for a hilly race
• The role of technical race officials
• Racing for one country while living in another
• Ideal wheel depth for racing and training
• Coordinating training with other athletes
• Adjusting training and racing with a newborn
• Whether a power meter is necessary for a first race
• Wearing Ironman apparel without having done one
