#568 – The Training Roller Coaster

A lot of triathletes seem to be more comfortable climbing out of holes versus climbing the actual mountain. Why do we set traps and get caught in short term excitement? Today we look at mental strategies to stay in the moment while focused on the long term. We also look at heat acclimation techniques, including why many athletes sacrifice fitness to "be ready" for the heat. Training so you can train like you need to train. And approaching today to set up tomorrow.  Topics: Texas and Oceanside 70.3 Spring Break for Robbie Rotation of Ironman World Championship?
