#770 – Race Speed: Mind And Body Ready

Today we dovetail off Chattanooga 70.3 and Moro Bay. We start by talking about swimming and how it should not be taken lightly. We ask if shortening the swim cut off would make people train harder to be stronger swimmers? We also talk about bike congestion and if it's really that bad or many people just aren't prepared with their bike handling. This is really about putting yourself in race situations before you get to the race. Are you training enough in open water? Working on your bike handling? Taking the harder way home with hills, etc? How do you get your body ready for Race Speed. Topics: Camp packed leisure activity Moro Bay - Tough swim The swim cut off too long? Taking the swim seriously Was it the conditions or your fitness?
