Coaching Lessons from Ironman Wisconsin

What did we learn on the coaching from Ironman Wisconsin? Turns out a ton. We take a close look at the avalanche of energy and how it impacts a race. We look at why the swim is so important for the rest of your race. Especially on a course like this. We also talk about how to peak at the right time for your race. There's nothing worse than training too hard and being burnt out way before you get there. We look how bad form on the run makes you work harder to go slower. We talk about overtraining on the run. We look at hills and the nutrition crutch. Having a plan B, C, D, and E.  In races like this, it's not usually about how fast you go, but how little you slow down.  Topics: Del Boca Vista Dedication Responsible, synergistic, thoughtful FB Group IMWI was brutal, but . . .  Willpower and strength You only gotta do it once When 12 Rounds turns into 20 Mentally and Emotionally fresh How deep can you go?
