Podcasts about age groups

We weren't intending to have so many controversial stories this week, but here we are with some spicy topics on our hands. The main discussion was new research on Ethiopian athlete training, described as an “AI-assisted” study. The findings are cool, and we discuss those training points. But looking at the bigger picture, we have major fears about the use of AI writing across exercise physiology literature. The future is going to be weird and sloppy.We also talked about the $500 Adidas trail shoe. David thinks it's a big “screw you” to trail runners. Megan is also concerned, but thinks he needs to chill. You know, the usual. And there were tons of topics with varying levels of spice! Other topics: UTMB scores, Megan's popsicle form, Edmonton Marathon's mis-measurement, Kilian and Jim out of UTMB, age group doping, the blueberry recall, our problems with hog watch, Mike Macdonald's coaching prowess through vulnerability, the Lost Soul Ultra, emails from PED companies, zone compression for speed-oriented athletes, and lots more!As always, remember that many of the points we make are wrong, and if so, it was a joke. But if you agree with it, we were serious.We love you all!

This week on the show, we welcome back Adidas athlete and hybrid fitness coach Lhea Terzaki for her first appearance since early 2025. Lhea candidly opens up about a recent shift in her mental game. Recently she realised that despite landing on the podium at Age Group level in Lisbon, she was simply going through the motions and racing out of expectation rather than enjoyment. We dive deep into the psychology of self-imposed pressure, the good & bad of social media, and the practical steps she took to reset her mindset for DEKA to put fun back at the centre of her competition. Whether you're an elite competitor or an age-grouper battling performance anxiety, this episode offers a valuable look into balancing high ambition with a healthy relationship to the sport.

On this episode of Real Fuel with SLS I am joined by professional triathlete and endurance coach Lisa Becharas. We dive deep into the hilarious realities of racing, share unforgettable Ironman race-day blunders, and break down how the sport of triathlon has evolved over the years.From navigating race announcer mispronunciations (and accidental identity swaps at the finish line!) to debating the true value of carbon-plated shoes and expensive bike gear, Lisa brings a grounded, refreshing perspective to endurance sports. Whether you're a seasoned age-grouper, a novice triathlete, or a seasoned pro, this conversation is packed with relatable insights, race-day banter, and practical wisdom on balancing training, injury recovery, and race expectations.Key Takeaways & HighlightsRace-Day Mishaps & Announcer Blunders: Hilarious finish line stories, including announcer name mishaps, AI jingles, and the iconic energy of Ironman Lake Placid.The Evolution of Triathlon: How the sport has shifted from grassroots, budget-friendly racing (aluminum frames and basic setups) to high-tech gear, carbon-plated shoes, and rising race entry fees.Smart Fueling & Gear Debates: Lisa shares her early triathlon days (and infamous "sports bean" fueling strategy) versus modern nutrition and equipment trends like aero bottles and carbon shoes.Training Philosophy & Expectations: Why peak training volume doesn't always need to be extreme to yield high-performing results—and how to avoid over-investing in gear over fitness.Overcoming Setbacks & Injury Recovery: The mental shift required when coming back from injury and finding gratitude in the process.Timestamps00:00 – Welcome back to Real Fuel & introducing Pro Triathlete Lisa Becharas01:00 – The hilarious truth behind Ironman finish line announcers & name mix-ups03:10 – SLS returns to triathlon: Returning to 70.3 racing after 7 years04:40 – The endless gear chase: Aero testing, bike gear, and round bottle debates06:20 – Swimming vs. Biking: Overcoming the cold pool struggle & training dynamics11:15 – Lisa's journey into triathlon: From sports beans and aluminum bikes to going pro15:00 – The humbling reality of jumping from elite amateur to professional racing18:20 – Grassroots triathlon vs. today's high-tech, expensive race culture23:30 – The competitive surge in age-group racing & the impact of carbon shoes26:38 – Running form, injury prevention, and building consistency on the runLinks & Resources

Bevan McKinnon has coached triathletes for over 20 years, hosts one of the sport's longest-running podcasts, and won his age group at Kona in 2016. We talk with him about what changed in his coaching when he stopped starting with the workout. Bevan makes the case that the objective data most of us build our training around tells us very little on its own. A flat CTL can hide an athlete who is genuinely getting fitter. A completed session guarantees nothing. "The brain is auditing the body at every single second in time," he says, and his argument is that we have largely stopped listening to it.He shares how he opens the conversations most coaches avoid, why he asked a physiologist to write an Ironman race plan with no numbers in it, what heat preparation actually costs an athlete, and his one-word answer to the question of what age groupers can learn from professionals.We also get into fuelling, recovery capacity, and why he now describes himself as a health coach rather than a triathlon coach.--Bevan is the founder of Fitter Coaching and hosts Fitter Radio: https://www.fitter.co.nz/bevanmckinnonFollow him on Instagram: @fitter.co.nzFollow Fabi on Instagram: ⁠@endurance_fabiFollow Bruna on Instagram: @justbrunathingsFollow augo on Instagram: ⁠@augo.trainingLearn more about augo: www.augotraining.com

The highs, the crash, and what overtraining syndrome taught one age-group world champion about ambition, recovery and knowing when to stop. Sue Reynolds was a guest on this podcast three years ago. At that point she had lost over 150 pounds, taken up triathlon in her fifties, and become a world age-group aqua bike and mixed relay champion. Her first book, The Athlete Inside, told that story. But Sue didn't stop there. She wanted to answer a question most age-group athletes never dare ask seriously: what would happen if an ordinary amateur trained with the same expectations, the same daily habits, and the same meticulous standards as an Olympic-level athlete? That question took her to the World Triathlon Championships in Pontevedra in 2023, where she led the swim - alone, three minutes clear, asking an official which way to run because she had never been at the front before. It eventually took her somewhere she hadn't planned to go at all. Her new book, Across The Line, covers all of it. This conversation is one of the most honest I have had on this podcast about ambition, identity, the invisible damage of overtraining, and what it actually means to know your limits. 5 KEY POINTS Meticulous preparation is where races are won before the start gun. Studying the currents, dropping leaves in the water on race morning, switching pontoon position at the last minute. The details are where elite performance actually lives. Overtraining syndrome is not just tiredness. Unlike overreaching, which resolves with rest, OTS means the body can no longer adapt no matter how much recovery you give it. Sue calls it what it really is: under-recovery syndrome. ‘Edited honesty' is one of the most dangerous habits in endurance sport. Sue never asked for recovery. She dropped hints, pointed at data, said she felt like a walrus. But she never said the words and that gap is where things went wrong. An invisible injury is still an injury. OTS left Sue looking completely fine while being unable to function. Nobody could see it. Some days she could barely believe it herself. Periodised commitment beats single-minded obsession. Research shows athletes with interests outside their sport sustain performance better over time. Sue learned this the hard way, at considerable cost.   3 TAKEAWAYS Ask for recovery before you need it. Don't drop hints. Don't hope your coach spots it in the data. Say the words out loud. Saying yes when you should say no is not toughness. It is the thing that ends careers and breaks bodies. Fitness gives you options. Sue's goal is simply to get fit by 2027 and see what becomes possible. Not a specific race. Not a podium. Just options.   KILLER QUOTE "I could have said I need a rest at any point. Why didn't I say that? I took a deep dive into all the cultural messages about sucking it up. We put people who push through on a pedestal. And I had bought into all of it."   CONNECT with Sue Sue Reynolds is a two-time age-group world champion, author and student of high performance. All author proceeds from Across The Line go to the USA Triathlon Foundation to support athletes with disabilities.   Website: suereynolds.net Instagram:  https://instagram.com/sue.reynolds/ Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/suereynoldstriathlon/ Across The Line - Sue Reynolds - A case study of world-class performance that examines elite coaching, ambition, and the systems that make and break athletes.

Dennis Steffensen er netop hjemvendt fra Ironman Hamborg med 1 stks Kona kval., efter en komfortabel 1st plads i AG 40-44 og hurtigste cykeltid af samtlige deltagere (4t og 12 min) Dennis har været i Tri sporten siden 2011 med et ganske habilt AG niveau, men også en del alvorlige skader. De seneste 4 sæsoner har han og coach Kristian Högenhaug dog formået at rykke performance barren til et niveau der matcher den internationale Age Group elite. Lyt med og bliv klogere på hvordan Dennis strukturere sin daglige træning og hvad konkret har gjort for at opnå sit tårnhøje cykel-niveau!

In the second part of our Unbound recap, Payson speaks to three age-group riders who finished in the middle of the night during torrential rain and thunderstorms. First up is Will Bledsoe, who completed the 100 last year and did most of his training for the 200 this year on an indoor trainer. He talks about his preparation for the race, why he was the very last rider to leave Emporia at the start, and the mental battle to finish the event in such historic conditions. Then, Emily and Justin talk about their Unbound experience. Emily decided not to do the 100 this year and was therefore on full-time support duties for Justin, who was hoping to complete his fifth 200 and join the 1,000-mile club. He finished at 1:30 after a series of downpours and thunderstorms that, at one point, forced him to take shelter in a convenience store. Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveenEmail: howdy@withpace.cc

Aisling Wyer is an Irish triathlete and member of Naas Triathlon Club who has achieved impressive results at home and abroad all whilst working full time as a solicitor. She came to the sport relatively late, inspired by her mother Nora, with a background in horse riding and tetrathlon. She most definitely wasn't a runner, was moved to tears on her first cycling outing along the Waterford Greenway and openly admits she has spent most of her triathlon career battling self-belief as much as she has battled race courses. And yet, Aisling Wyer has quietly become one of the most competitive Irish age group athletes. She is a two time National Sprint Champion and has won multiple races in Ireland including Tri Tyrone 70.3, Skerries Sprint, Camlough Sprint and Naas Duathlon in 2024.  On the international stage she won IRONMAN 70.3 Emilia-Romagna in 2024, qualifying for her first IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship.  In 2025 she raced 11 times across five countries, finishing on the podium nine times, she was third overall female in the Triathlon Ireland National Series, rounding out her season with a 4th place in her Age Groups at the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Marbella. Her most recent success came last month when she crossed the finish line as the fastest female overall at IRONMAN 70.3 Mallorca, solidifying her position as a talented triathlete on the rise. Now she is setting her sights on the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Nice, France, with the aim of going one better in the results than Marbella. In this conversation we hear about her journey from reluctant runner to two-time IRONMAN 70.3 Champion, the role her mother has played every step of the way, how she manages training, injury and a demanding career without losing her love for the sport, her experience as a guide in paratriathlon and the mindset she has built around consistency and learning to believe in herself. Aisling is grounded and genuinely inspiring, not because of the results alone, but because of the attitude she brings to chasing them. This is a really lovely chat and one that will have you motivated to go out and chase your own sporting and personal goals, whatever they may be.

Send us Fan MailFIRST HALF: Kentucky Governor Bashear (a Democrat Communist) vetoes a bill that would have re-authorized 18-20-year-olds to carry concealed firearms, and another that would protect gun manufacturers from junk lawsuits. Why? He claims it's because of a friend of his that was murdered in a mass shooting by a deranged psychopath at the Old National Bank. SECOND HALF: Royce shows why this veto would have done nothing to stop that shooting, based upon the 25-year-old psychopath's own words he left in a manifesto.Freedom GunsFirearms, Ammunition, Accessories, Training classes Sicarios Gun ShopFirearms, Accessories, Ammo, Safes, and more!WJS GunsGun and Outdoor Shop, ammo, accessories, fishing tackle, moreThe Gun Site9-Lane 25 yard indoor Shooting Range, Gun Store, Training classesSHOOTINGCLASSES.COMOnline business operations platform for firearms instructors, trainees, and Shooting RangesCounter Strike TacticalBest Little Gun Store in Melbourne, Florida!

Discovering Grayslake: The Heart and Impact of the Grayslake Colts Football & Cheerleading Program Welcome to another in-depth feature from the "Discovering Grayslake" podcast, where we shine a light on the organizations and people that make our hometown special. In this episode, we sat down with the leadership team of the Grayslake Colts—President Katie Duncan, Football Director Mike, and Registrar Kevin McMahon—to explore the vital role this youth football and cheerleading program plays in our community. Whether you're a parent considering signing up your child, a community member looking to volunteer, or simply curious about how youth sports shape Grayslake, this comprehensive guide will walk you through the program's structure, values, and actionable ways to get involved. Table of Contents The Power of Community and Volunteerism Registration, Costs, and Financial Aid Program Structure: Teams, Age Groups, and Growth Safety: The Top Priority Commitment: What Families Should Expect Player Development and Playing Time Cheerleading: Roles, Teamwork, and Growth Fundraising and Sponsorship: Keeping the Program Accessible What Sets the Colts Apart Expert Advice for Parents Supporting Multi-Sport Athletes How to Get Involved Final Thoughts 1. The Power of Community and Volunteerism Main Theme: The Grayslake Colts thrive because of deep-rooted community involvement and a culture of volunteerism. Key Insights: Volunteering is the backbone:** Most board members and coaches started as parents or community members who simply wanted to help. Many, like Katie Duncan, found themselves drawn in by the camaraderie and the chance to make a difference. No experience required:** You don't need a child in the program or a background in football or cheer to volunteer. There are roles for everyone—from coaching to concessions to administrative support. Lasting friendships:** Volunteers often form lifelong bonds, making the experience rewarding beyond the field. Actionable Advice: Start small:** Offer to help at a single event or practice. You might find yourself wanting to do more! Reach out:** Email president@grayslakecolts.org or connect at grayslakecolts.org to see where your skills fit best. 2. Registration, Costs, and Financial Aid Main Theme: The Colts are committed to making youth sports accessible to all families. Key Insights: Registration windows:** Cheer closes at the end of May; football closes July 19th. Early registration saves money. Transparent costs:** Football is $450 (includes pads, helmet, jersey, pants); cheer is $675 (covers nearly everything except shoes). Financial aid:** Payment plans and scholarships are available. The leadership team encourages families to reach out if cost is a barrier. Actionable Advice: Register early:** Secure your spot and save on fees. Ask for help:** Email president@grayslakecolts.org for confidential financial assistance. Prepare gear:** Football families need to provide cleats and a girdle; cheer families need to purchase shoes. 3. Program Structure: Teams, Age Groups, and Growth Main Theme: The Colts offer a structured, inclusive environment for kids from kindergarten through eighth grade. Key Insights: Team divisions:** Based on age and weight for safety and fair play. Examples include "flyweights" (5-6 years), "bantams" (7-8 years), up to varsity. Growth:** Last year, nearly 100 cheerleaders and 135 football players participated, with expected growth of 10-15% this year. League affiliation:** The Colts are part of the CFL, the largest youth football league in the country. Actionable Advice: Check eligibility:** Review age and weight guidelines on the Colts' website. Encourage friends:** Growth is fueled by word-of-mouth—invite classmates and neighbors to join. 4. Safety: The Top Priority Main Theme: The Colts are proactive and innovative in protecting young athletes. Key Insights: Advanced equipment:** The program uses top-rated helmets with "safer helmet covers" that reduce concussion risk—adopted eight years ago, ahead of many peers. Strict guidelines:** Age and weight divisions ensure kids play with peers of similar size and experience. Ongoing investment:** The board prioritizes safety in every equipment and policy decision. Actionable Advice: Ask questions:** Don't hesitate to inquire about safety protocols and equipment standards. Attend safety meetings:** Stay informed about how the program is evolving to protect your child. 5. Commitment: What Families Should Expect Main Theme: Participation requires dedication, but the rewards are immense. Key Insights: Cheer:** Practices are two hours, two nights a week, increasing as competitions approach. Cheerleaders perform at home and some away games. Football:** Practices are three nights a week for younger teams, four for older teams, Monday through Thursday. The season runs mid-July to mid-November, with nine regular-season games. Family involvement:** Parents are encouraged to support not just their own child, but the whole team. Actionable Advice: Plan ahead:** Mark practice and game dates on your family calendar. Communicate conflicts:** Let coaches know about vacations or other commitments early. 6. Player Development and Playing Time Main Theme: The Colts balance inclusivity with healthy competition. Key Insights: Guaranteed play:** Younger teams have rules ensuring every child plays at least half the game. Earned roles:** As kids progress, playing time is based on effort, attendance, and attitude. Self-advocacy:** Kids are encouraged to communicate directly with coaches about their goals and concerns. Actionable Advice: Encourage resilience:** Teach your child to work hard and speak up respectfully. Support growth:** Celebrate effort and improvement, not just wins or starting positions. 7. Cheerleading: Roles, Teamwork, and Growth Main Theme: Cheerleading is a dynamic, team-oriented sport with roles for every skill set. Key Insights: Diverse roles:** Flyers, bases, back spots, and tumblers all play crucial parts. Attendance matters:** Missing practice can impact the whole team's safety and performance. Skill development:** Cheer builds confidence, coordination, and leadership. Actionable Advice: Discuss commitment:** Make sure your child understands the importance of showing up for their teammates. Explore roles:** Encourage your child to try different positions to find their strengths. 8. Fundraising and Sponsorship: Keeping the Program Accessible Main Theme: Community support keeps the Colts affordable and thriving. Key Insights: Fundraising events:** Car washes, Charity Mania, and concessions help cover operational costs. Sponsorships:** Local businesses and organizations provide vital financial support. All funds reinvested:** Every dollar raised goes back into equipment, facilities, and financial aid. Actionable Advice: Participate:** Volunteer at or promote fundraising events. Sponsor:** If you own a business, consider sponsoring a team or event. Spread the word:** Share fundraising campaigns with your network. 9. What Sets the Colts Apart Main Theme: The Colts are more than a sports program—they're a Grayslake institution. Key Insights: Rich history:** Founded in 1968 by Ken Grosvenor, the Colts have a legacy of community impact. Culture of connection:** Many coaches and volunteers are alumni or long-time supporters. Life lessons:** The program emphasizes teamwork, resilience, and friendship. Actionable Advice: Get involved:** Whether as a player, volunteer, or supporter, you'll become part of a proud tradition. Honor the past:** Attend memorial games and events that celebrate the program's history. 10. Expert Advice for Parents Main Theme: Positive parent involvement is key to a great experience for all. Key Insights: The 24-hour rule:** If you're upset about something, wait a day before addressing it with coaches or staff. Respect volunteers:** Remember, coaches and board members are giving their time for your kids. Encourage communication:** Teach your child to advocate for themselves with coaches. Actionable Advice: Model sportsmanship:** Cheer for all kids, not just your own. Stay positive:** Focus on effort,

Jacob Tipper is a high-performance cycling and triathlon coach working with athletes such as Ben Healy (Tour de France stage winner and UCI World Championships third place in 2025), Lucy Byram, Dan Bigham and Jonny Brownlee. He is also a team coach or the EF Education-EasyPost WorldTour team. In today's interview we discuss training for amateur triathletes and we dive deep into Ben Healy's training and preparation that led to his breakthrough year in 2025.  HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:  Jacob's thoughts on doing aerobic runs at a decent clip to optimise biomechanical development and running economy improvements.  The key characteristics of Ben Healy's training in 2025 Being a high-volume athlete on an annual basis without having very high weekly training volumes.  The changes in race tactics Ben implemented in 2025 to be able to win races at the highest level.  The differences between the scientific literature's view of cycling training and what it actually looks like How age-group triathletes should think about volume and intensity as drivers of adaptation when it comes to their cycling. How to maximise training return on investment for time-crunched athletes by not following rigid rules Monitoring training improvements by feel  How working on speed as the ultimate training metric is still important and still underestimated.  DETAILED EPISODE SHOWNOTES:  We have detailed shownotes for all of our episodes. The shownotes are basically the podcast episode in written form, that you can read in 5-10 minutes. They are not transcriptions, but they are also not just surface-level overviews.

Join Coach Carlie & Coach Chris to review research on first-time amateur Ironman 70.3 athletes to unpack what happens to mood, motivation, and confidence across a six-month training build. We also share how coaching, clear communication, and a focus on joy can keep training consistent while real life keeps happening. Here's what you'll learn:• why age group triathlon research matters more than elite-only studies • how the study follows 32 athletes through monthly psychological questionnaires • what “psychological status” measures like anxiety and positive affect • why stable mood across training can signal better structure and support • intrinsic motivation versus extrinsic motivation and why both show up in long course triathlon • making training enjoyable enough to stay consistent without avoiding hard work • communication with a coach to tailor workouts and remove hidden friction • behavior change as a skill built over time, not a personality trait Interested in working with us for your first 70.3?

We start by catching up with Alyssa McElheny after her attempt to get a 2nd race in before the cutoff for The HYROX Warsaw Major. Saliva slowed her down, let's find out why. Then the Not So Live Show with Cheryl, Matt and Dave. Old people talk: seatbelts, 8-tracks, and riding in the back of cars HYROX Cancun: race, vacation, or full racecation The "I could go sub-60" guy who ran 1:25 Why HYROX is harder than people think (Murph denial included) Cancun race setup: one lap course, rain, platforms, fireworks Destination races and the rise of the HYROX racecation Fall North America cities announced: Nashville, Tampa, Salt Lake City, Denver Altitude debates and racing for fun vs chasing PRs HYROX growth moment in America and the viral schedule post New women emerging with fast times and the next Elite 15 contenders Alyssa's penalty, judging standards, and the "benefit of the doubt" debate Elite 15 rule enforcement and communication issues The role of media in covering the sport honestly New Worlds qualification rule: no roll-downs after the initial offer Quick preview of the European Championship race and who we want to win We start with some old-school nostalgia before getting into HYROX Cancun and the idea of a true racecation. The conversation moves quickly into how hard HYROX actually is, sparked by the classic "I could go sub-60" claim, and what the Cancun course setup revealed about race design. From there, we get into the bigger picture. HYROX growth in North America, the newly announced fall cities, and the ongoing debate between racing for PRs versus racing for the experience. We also look at emerging athletes, especially on the women's side, and what the next version of the Elite 15 could look like. The back half of the episode focuses on rules and governance. Alyssa's penalty, judging consistency, and the broader issue of communication from HYROX all come up, along with the newly announced Worlds qualification rule removing roll-downs after the initial offer. We wrap with a quick look ahead to the European Championship and who we think could take it. Listen on Apple or Spotify Support us through The Cup Of Coffee Follow Hybrid Fitness Media on IG

Check out Zone 14 Coaching below: https://zone14coaching.com/ Use code: ModernSoccer5 for $5 OFF The US Soccer age group rule change is here — and it's creating real uncertainty across the youth soccer landscape. In this Modern Soccer Coach podcast episode, Gary Curneen is joined by STA Technical Director Tom Shields to explain exactly what's changing (birth-year registration to a seasonal/school-year window), why it's being introduced, and how coaches and clubs can manage the transition with clarity. We unpack the biggest issues families are asking about: “Will my child be playing down?”, what happens to late-birthday players, how “trapped” players can be affected during middle school to high school transitions, and how clubs can protect player development, team culture, and coach well-being during year one. Tom shares a simple leadership framework for communication and trust: keep people informed, inspired, interested, involved, and included — so you can lead the change instead of reacting to it. If you're a director, coach, or parent navigating team placement, tryout season, and registration shifts, this episode will help you understand the implications and make better decisions rooted in process — not panic.

We also discuss why the simple act of running becomes a portal for understanding your deepest patterns. Nick offers profound lessons in post-traumatic growth. And he shares them generously. Enjoy!
