Episode 7: Pre Race Routine

Episode 7 "Pre Race Routine (or if I ever get to race again, here's how I prep)." Today I'm talking about how I've built a pre race routine to better handle the race day jitters and give yourself tiny edge over your competition. Mentioned in this episode, here is my standard stage race prep list, you may have seen this before (I've shared it with others and somehow it made it's way into some magazines).
