One more podcast from the road before being back in the studio. Today, Mike & Robbie talk about the complexities of life colliding with the complexities of triathlon. How to "create your own race" in the sense of a short term goal. Motivation to get better and not use race day as an ending. They also talk about building a 3-sport engine and what you should be working on most with regard to your strengths and weaknesses. Also why tests don't tell the whole story.  Topics: Triathlon redshirt How has this year changed us? The C26 Weekend Ironman Races can be whatever you want it to be No race is the same Race lead ups are never the same What to do when you don’t have a race Do you look beyond the race at hand? It’s easy to get lost in long term planning Zen . . . race as enlightenment No absolutes Understanding sacrifices It's incredibly complex Are you up for a 2-3 year plan?
