Prepare For An Olympic Triathlon (Properly)

In today’s episode, we shift our focus to the Olympic triathlon, a widely pursued triathlon distance. The Olympic triathlon consists of a 1.5-kilometer swim, a 40-kilometer bike ride, and a 10-kilometer run. And it takes specific training and racing preparation to get it right. This episode is a part of our ongoing series on effective event training. We've covered a range of challenging races, including marathons, half marathons, Ironman, and half Ironman.  Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction01:00 - Gratitude03:25 - Rehabilitation from Injury06:20 - Generosity of People07:15 - Giro d'Italia: Remco Time Trial and Covid12:00 - Racing to Feel: Get In Tune with Your Body21:00 - La Vuelta Femenina24:40 - Norwegians Not Performing Well26:50 - Form is Fleeting28:35 - Expectations: Perform When it Counts31:30 - Olympic Distance Triathlon: Swim Training36:20 - Olympic Distance Triathlon: Bike Training45:00 - Olympic Distance Triathlon: Run Training48:30 - Importance of Running off the Bike training53:00 - Race Day Warm Up57:30 - Practice Race Day Nutrition1:00:30 - Race Logistics If you want to learn how to TRAIN SMARTER and RACE FASTER, you can join our weekly coaching email, just go to: getfastpodcast.com Some of you might already be in there, but many of you won’t be and so this is our official invitation for you to come and join our free community: www.facebook.com/groups/trivelocoaching Check us out on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trivelocoaching/ Disclaimer: The Content in this podcast is in no way intended to be medical advice, treatment or diagnoses.
