from Get Fast Podcast - Triathlon, Ironman & Cycling Coaching Advice · host TriVelo Coaching

A podcast to help you Train Smarter and Race Faster. Hosted by expert Triathlon coach, Australian Ironman Champion and 15 x Aus Age group Champion Gerard Donnelly, and his son, multiple Triathlon + Cycling Aus Age Group Champion Jordy Donnelly. Stuck in a training rut? This episode is for every triathlete who's hit a plateau.  We dive into why performance stalls (hint: it's not lack of effort), what elite athletes do differently, and how you can reboot your progress. Plus, we kick things off with a return to our gratitude segment—because mindset matters too.
