Episode 93- Maturing as a Triathlete
The difference between a rookie triathlete and an elite triathlete is much greater than simply the time spent in the sport or their fitness levels. It is also a reflection of their mindset, and their approach to the sport. In this week's episode I look at some strategies to help you mature as a triathlete, changing your outlook, your training and your mindset to set you up for high performance rather than flying by the seat of your pants, making it all up as you go along.

Episode 86- From Occasional Bike Rider to Confident Road Cyclist Part 1
This is part one of a three part series where I take someone through the journey from an occasional bike rider to being a confident road cyclist. When getting back on the bike and dusting off your old faithful which has been rusting away in the shed for a decade or more, it can be hard to understand how other cyclists are so much faster than you as they blast past at literally twice the speed. This is even worse on race day where you're woking hard but getting repeatedly blitzed. In this week's episode I look at why you (probably) need a road bike and different frame materials as well as essential cycling accessories you need to get started and riding successfully.

Bonus- How To Train For An IRONMAN In A Year
Is it possible to train for an IRONMAN in a year? The short answer is yes, but it's not recommended.

A big fear of many triathletes is crashing their bike. Whether it's fear of injury or scratching up their pride and joy, most of us will do whatever we can to avoid crashing and keeping our bike rubber side down. In this week's episode I look at the most common reasons for crashing, and how to reduce your risk of each. While there are never any guarantees, hopefully this will help you stay upright.

Episode 78- The Biggest Triathlon Money Pits
Triathlon is an expensive sport as it is. Let's not make it any more expensive than it has to be. In this week's episode I look at the biggest money pits in triathlon. These are upgrades and items which may seem like guaranteed speed and a sensible investment at first, but the costs can quickly spiral, or you gain little to no benefit from them. Nearly all of these will make you faster, but are likely to have more of an impact on your wallet than your race times.

Episode 77- Overtraining and Burnout
In triathlon, where long hours of training are glamourised, and often required, we are at a high risk of overtraining. This can result in our training going backwards, poor performance, and even long term health ramifications. In this week's episode I take a look at how we can avoid this, as well as how to try to dig yourself out of this hole if this is where you find yourself.

Episode 75- Triathlon Hard Truths
So much of what we see in marketing and social media presents us with a glossy, carefully choreographed image. IRONMAN finish lines, rides in the mountains, sunset runs across trails. But the reality can often be very different. I n this week's episode I look at some of the hard truths of triathlon. These can be hard to stomach, but it's important to know what the day to day routine of training, pressure of race day and the reality of what money can help you achieve in the sport. At the end of the episode I also cover some hidden truths of triathlon, the benefits of swim bike and run that I don't think are celebrated enough.

Episode 74- Panic Training
As the weather warms up and some triathletes emerge from hibernation, they realise just how out of shape they've got. What started as a healthy end of season break can soon snowball into a period of detraining, which brings us down to earth with a thud when we pick up training again. If this is where you find yourself this spring, I'm here to help provide you with some guidance on how to get ready for your next race on a tight deadline.

Episode 73- What Makes Some Athletes So Fast?
When racing, we're all familiar with having someone fly past us at light speed, making us wonder if we're even competing in the same race. This can be quite demoralising in some cases, as we wonder what it is that we're missing, what it is we're doing wrong that's keeping us from achieving the same level of results as them. In this week's episode I break down the components of performance, to hopefully help you understand where it is you need to focus your efforts to help you close the gap to the athletes at the front of the field.

But it will have an effect on our training, especially if you miss sessions due to hangovers, or it affects your ability to recover. In this week's episode I delve into the science and social aspects of alcohol, to help athletes make informed choices surrounding their intake.
