Full Ironman fears, 32 inch wheels, triathlon heat training, and more!

from That Triathlon Life Podcast

This week we almost didn’t manage to record a podcast between travel, family visits, birthday celebrations, and Eric leaving at 5 a.m. to film Heather Jackson at Unbound XL, but skipping wasn’t an option. So instead, we went full rapid-fire mode and packed in as many listener-submitted questions as possible. We also talked fast helmets, Escape From Alcatraz, questionable podcast comments, and the latest TTL merch drop. This week we discussed:Aero vs ventilation for Xterra helmetsBalancing triathlon obsession with actually being present in life32 inch wheelsRevisiting old races vs constantly chasing new challengesReturning to fitness after forced time completely off trainingWhich part of a full ironman scares the mostHeat training vs convenienceBest tires for Xterra North American Championships in PelhamFinishing a 70.3 swim while doggy paddlingCycling group ride warmup and when it's ok to attackHeart rate monitor locations for womenWhat to do when someone tries to talk to you mid swim setA big thank you to our podcast supporters who keep the podcast alive!
