In this captivating episode, Baylor Barbee shares his insights from attending the three-day Running Man health and wellness festival in Georgia. He delves into the lessons learned from running a marathon, not just in terms of physical endurance but as a metaphor for pursuing life's big goals. Baylor's reflections provide a rich blend of marathon running advice and life wisdom, encouraging listeners to take actionable steps towards their aspirations. Baylor emphasizes the importance of starting your journey, drawing a powerful comparison between those who take action and those who merely dream. His mantra, "Faster than everyone who never started," becomes a central theme as he discusses the significance of taking that first step towards your goals. Baylor also highlights the importance of listening to your body and mind, much like understanding your needs in life and anticipating what it takes to achieve success. He offers practical advice on being mentally prepared and knowing exactly what you need to progress in various aspects of life. Key Takeaways: Start Your Journey: Taking the first step towards your goal sets you apart from those who only dream. Listen to Your Body and Mind: Understanding your needs is crucial both in running and in life. Know Your Requirements: Be prepared to recognize and seize opportunities by knowing what you need to progress. Persist Through Challenges: Adopt a mindset of having no other option but to achieve your goals. Aid Stations in Life: Life's support systems, like aid stations in a marathon, are essential for sustained progress. Notable Quotes: "Faster than everyone who never started." "If you are taking an action toward what it is that you want to do, you are better than all the people that just hope and dream." "You have to actually know yourself." "It's imperative that you know what it is that you actually need." "There is no other option. I am going to make it happen."

They talk about the lottery system for entry, Mikala's training and preparation, and the logistics of the race. Mikala shares her strategy for drop bags and the items she included in them. They also discuss the supportive and inclusive atmosphere of the race and the camaraderie among runners. The vibe at the starting line of the Western States 100 mile trail race was emotional and filled with dedicated supporters. The race began with a challenging climb, and one runner even walked into a chairlift by accident. The river crossing was a highlight, with volunteers helping runners navigate the water. The race took place in hot weather, and some runners struggled with the heat. Despite the challenges, Mikala's why for running ultras is simply because she loves it. She enjoys the reward of running in the woods with like-minded people. In this part of the conversation, Mikala discusses her experience running the Western States 100-mile race and the challenges she faced. She talks about using headphones during the race and the songs she listened to, including 'It's Raining Tacos.' Mikala also shares her thoughts on the finish line and the post-race meal she had. The conversation then transitions to Erica's experience running the Washington Yeti 100-mile race, where she describes the beautiful scenery and the differences compared to her previous race in Virginia.

In this final part of the conversation, Erika shares her overall experience of the race and the lessons she learned. She talks about how she prepared better for this race, including taping up her feet to prevent blisters and improving her fueling habits. She also discusses the lack of tracking in this race and the challenges she faced during the night lap. Erika mentions her upcoming race, the Notch, and her goals for it.

Something to Say? Send Us a Message!When Ultra Expeditions Race Director Christy Krchnavy  laced up her shoes to start the Cocodona 250 mile race through the rugged Arizona landscape, she carried more than just her running gear; she embodied the indomitable spirit of a back-of-the-pack ultra runner. Her story is a testament to enduring strength, recounting her evolution from a time-strapped new mother to a conqueror of monumental distances. Christy's journey illuminates the heart of ultra running—a sport where victories aren't solely measured by speed, but by the sheer grit to cross the finish line. Her candid sharing of the extreme highs and lows, from debilitating blisters to the exhilarating sense of achievement, serves as a beacon to anyone drawn to the call of the trail.This episode takes you through the winding turns of Christy's meticulous preparation for Cocodona, underpinned by unwavering family support and a staggering 48-week training plan. The camaraderie of trail running shines through as she details how strangers became impromptu pacers, her personal cheerleaders through the night's darkest hours and her amazing crew worked efficiently and tirelessly to keep her moving through Aid Stations. Christy's creative strategies, like her "Mary Poppins" umbrella to combat the Arizona sun, not only reflect the innovation in the ultra community but also the unexpected moments of joy that can arise in the midst of struggle. Her reflection on the race as a rewarding journey, rather than an ordeal, invites listeners to reconsider their own challenges as opportunities for personal triumph.We close the narrative on a high, quite literally, with Christy's full-on sprint down Mt. Eldon and victorious finish in Flagstaff—a scene of exuberant high-fives that punctuated the end of an epic quest. It's in these moments, shared with the community of runners, pacers, and supporters, that the soul of ultra running is revealed. Christy's anecdotes, enriched with the evocative score of "Run" by OneRepublic, beckon you to lace up your own running shoes. Whether you're experienced on the trails or just considering your first ultra, this conversation with Christy is an invitation to join a world where endurance is championed regardless of pace, and every finish line is a new beginning.  And yes.

Microcosm Coaching Team Call 09/30/2022: On this week's edition of Rapid, not so Rapid Fire Friday, we get into a ton of questions from our team and listeners. We start off by talking about traveling internationally with race nutrition and gear as well as protein and fat intake during longer ultras. From there, the conversation shifts to race preparation, from choosing A races to how much time to spend in aid stations and what to put in drop bags during events and how to hack the UTMB mandatory gear checks. Our conversation ends with a deep dive into thinking beyond one race season and giving yourself time to truly improve as a runner before stepping up to longer ultras. I hope you enjoy this episode and as usual, if you have any feedback, a question for a future call or are looking for support in your running journey, please visit us on the web at microcosm-coaching.com or contact us at microcosmcoaching@gmail.com

Come along and spend the next hour with us talking about gravel bikes, adventure biking, bikepacking, bike camping, MAMMOTH Endurance Gravel or just playing bikes. Joining us in this episode is James Llewellyn, the event organizer for the Mammoth Endurance Gravel. Come and enjoy miles on miles of gravel around beautiful Wellsboro Pennsylvania and the PA Grand Canyon! We have a fresh new course for 2022, only a couple of roads overlap from our 2021 course! The route is a BEAST and at only 11% of the 140 miles being paved, there is plenty of gravel for everyone to enjoy! The Full MAMMOTH course is 140 miles and 15K ft. of elevation gain to challenge even the most advanced riders, come ready to duke it out with your will to finish in the pain cave. For those looking to compete there will be 6 STRAVA Segments totaling 68 mi. and roughly 6K ft. of elevation gain the fastest overall time through these segments in addition to finishing the full course decide the winner. Those of you that choose to attempt the Full MAMMOTH will ride two separate 70 miles, non-overlapping loops beginning and ending in Wellsboro with Aid Stations approximately halfway through each loop. (Please keep in mind that there will be a support vehicle patrolling the course but carry what you need for approx. 35 mile stretches) If you are doing the Half MAMMOTH option you will only do the first 70-mile morning loop. The Quarter MAMMOTH option takes you to Aid Station 1 (fresh coffee and baked goods for all at this station provided by Wandering Barista) then turns back toward Wellsboro totaling 32 miles and 3K ft. of elevation gain.

In the episode we hear from Chris Tubbs who is a husband, father and has a PhD in Biochemistry. If that wasn't enough, Chris also invests in real estate, has started a charity walk that grew to the point he had to enlist help to manage it and is a Prostate Cancer survivor. After being diagnosed with cancer, Chris started journaling as a way to document his thoughts and emotions. After Chris shared his journal with a few close friends they encouraged him to transition to blogging so that he could share his experience publicly in the hopes that someone who might be facing a similar situation would find comfort in the knowledge they aren't only facing adversity.Chris shares that during his junior and senior years of high school in Los Angeles, CA he was ranked in the Top 25 swimmers in the city. He then took a 25 year hiatus before finding Triathlon in his mid-40s. We spend a few minutes talking about family, high school swimming, and Chris sets me straight on how long it takes to get a PhD. I ask Chris if Ironman would allow my idea on how to get faster in the pool by getting cosmetic surgery. We talk about Chris' blog journeyto140. Chris reminds us of the importance of documenting our progress as most progress comes in small incremental steps that are more obvious when viewed over a longer period of time. Chris a 2X Ironman Finisher with both of his races being at Ironman Florida. Chris explains how he came to race Florida twice through a series of deferrals and needing time for his body to recover. Being completely open about all things, Chris shares that he was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and had a complete Prostatectomy just weeks after completing Ironman Florida in 2020. Chris acknowledges that considers himself lucky as his Cancer was initially discovered through a blood test when he went in for a “regular” physical.Because Chris raced Ironman Florida in back to back years, I take to opportunity to ask him to compare the differences from one year to the next. Chris walks me through his experience this year on the swim. At one point he thought he might have been swept out to sea as he lost sight of all the buoys and the pier that the swim course follows. Chris is very honest about how his body is still recovering from surgery and spent more time than intended off the bike. Because of his experience with the change in weather the days leading into race weekend, I agree to pack a light jacket regardless of the venue moving forward.After getting distracted talking about Ironman 70.3 Texas, Chris explains how he had planned to attack the run course this year with a much different plan than in 2020. Chris' plan to run at a slower pace while walking the Aid Stations got him to mile 18 but soon found himself walking more than running. Luckily for Chris, another athlete whom he had run with earlier in the day, provided the encouragement that was needed to finish strong.We discuss the benefits of talking to others on the run course. Chris admits he enjoys the connection he is able to make through the community that is triathlon. Because I follow Chris on Instagram, I know that he has added Yoga to his workout routine, so I put him on the spot and ask him to share his favorite yoga pose. Because the Warrior pose is what gives him the most challenge, Chris list it as his favorite at this moment. We agree that adding yoga to your triathlon training is key to developing core strength.We talk about Chris' customized QR tri bike, and I ask him his thoughts on those athletes that ride a non-traditional bike to increase the difficulty of the race. We laugh at the notion of someone riding a bike from the early 1900s. And Chris share what's on the race schedule for 2022.You can follow Chris on Instagram @journeytoironmantexas

In the last episode of 2021, I had the opportunity to speak to Lissette Mares. Lissette currently works full-time in hospitality and lives in Yosemite National Park in California. Through the conversation she reveals that she grew up swimming, though conversation I determine that she may or may not have been an Olympic hopeful. She is also very open about living with Multiple Sclerosis. She was diagnosed in 2013 and has chosen to live her life as an example and to inspire others to reach their full potential.Once again, because I didn't graduate Doctor school, I had to get a high-level overview of an autoimmune disease. Lissette shares that MS attacks the Myelin Sheath, the protective coating that covers nerve fibers between the brain and the rest of the body. While she is currently in remission, she explains that heat, humidity, and stress can cause her symptoms to flare up.Recently Lissette completed her 1st full distance Ironman race in Cozumel, Mexico. We discuss her decision to race Cozumel in spite of the heat and humidity, Lissette revealed she intentionally choose to subject herself to the toughest environment that she could.Before talking about her training to prepare for Ironman, we discuss the 10 days that she spent in Mexico before and after the race. Lissette took the opportunity to arrive several days in advance to acclimate to the local climate which allowed her time to see family and explore. Being in hospitality, she provides some travel advice, rent through Airbnb and get a car.Lissette trained for 1 year to prepare for the full Ironman distance. Living in Yosemite National Park there were plenty of opportunities to run and bike, but she didn't have access to a lap pool, so she had to overcome her fear of open water to get ready for the ocean swim.Because Ironman Cozumel is on my personal race bucket list, I was excited to hear her firsthand account of the race. She was so gracious to break the race down for me discipline by discipline. We start by talking about this year's swim. There has been online conversation of how fast the swim was this year and if there was an advantageous current. Being an extremely strong swimmer, Lissette preferred the warmer water of Cozumel and the fact that she didn't need to wear a wetsuit. While she personally didn't feel she benefited from a current, she does point out that the clear water made for a fast and fun swim.After exiting the water 50 minutes faster than she had projected, Lissette celebrated with a chocolate bar and dancing to a song being played in the background. She had time to double-check her bike and nutrition before heading out onto the bike course.Lissette gives a thorough account of her on-bike nutrition. We agree that no loosing water bottles on the bike course is better than loosing bottles on the bike course and we talk about the rain that fell race day and the impact that it made on the bike portion of the race. Because heat and humidity is her kryptonite, Lissette believes the rain helped cool her core temperature which was a welcomed relief.Before talking about the run, I take the opportunity to ask Lissette about the actual bike course surface. The majority of the bike course takes place on the original highway that circles Cozumel island. While in Cozumel over the summer I was able to drive on the new highway that was installed several years back but was curious how well the original road is maintained.After discussing how she grossly overestimated how long it would take her to swim and bike, we talk a little transition before breaking down the run course. Lissette confesses that she had a panic attack in T2 but was comforted by two other athletes assuring her that everything was going to be OK. After heading out on the run course a little faster than she wanted she was able to slow down and get her emotions in check. Lissette explains that the Aid Stations were passing o

The National Weather Service, for example, instructed hunters and outdoor recreationists to be prepared for winter conditions in the Utah mountains. This type of storm is not unusual for the month of October — and even the second half of September — in this geography, the tops of mountains.   On Saturday, October 9, at 5:30 a.m., the race started off as planned in Kaysville, Utah. This town is just north of Salt Lake City in Davis County, the namesake of DC in the race name. Runners were excited for this autumn ultra, to run a rugged course that traversed the mountain range above the northern Salt Lake City suburbs, including Francis Peak and Bountiful Peak. The more prepared runners had seen the weather forecast and knew the event's high passages, and packed their running vests accordingly with jackets and gloves, some even bringing pants as a precaution.   Kelly Sparks, the Davis County Sheriff, spoke about the shock it was to get a call of this magnitude.   “It's pretty rare, in our part of the country, to get a call that so many people are in need of assistance. We usually deal with groups of twos and threes. We got the call at about 9:30 a.m. that there were runners out on this high altitude course that needed assistance. We sent some SAR people on foot, some on snowmobile, and some on four-wheelers. Some went from the front of the course going forward, and others went from the midpoint backtracking. We needed to ensure everyone could get off safely.”   When asked about the characterization in the initial media reports of runners being lost, Sheriff Sparks stated, “I don't think anyone was lost at that time, but the [race directors] realized that it could become a real situation, with the blowing snow and visibility. We needed to get people to a warm environment as fast as possible.”   The DC Peaks 50 blizzard and athlete rescue is just the tip of the iceberg of this story.  You have to understand where this this story starts with Jake Kilgore as a CEO of a major motorize wheelchair company and the journey to ultra trail running.   Let's talk to Jake Kilgore.     There are ton of details about Jake's experience that we did not get to:   Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 41). Kindle Edition. The doctor's office is left with an Orbit prescription pad in order to make the referral process simple. This pad contains checkboxes and fields for the medical professional to order supplies and materials based on a patient's needs. Many reps would make minor changes to this prescription pad and other paperwork—adding a missed checkbox, filling in a date, or writing in “ninety-nine months” when the length of need is overlooked. Everyone knew it. The owners knew it, I knew it, and our internal reviewers knew it. Although this behavior was not permitted, everyone viewed these actions as not a big deal—and certainly not criminal.     Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 36). Kindle Edition. I used every Sunday for a one-on-one phone call with each of my four kids, rotating through them oldest to youngest, one Sunday at a time. This was the best I could do to keep a close, private, trusted relationship with each child. I dedicated all fifteen minutes to that one child. If you only had fifteen private minutes a month, being recorded by the government, what would you ask your child? What would you talk about? Inmates were charged roughly three bucks for their fifteen minutes.   Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 50). Kindle Edition. We heard the whispers, we saw the looks of “That's Jake Kilgore. The one who's going to prison soon. His poor wife and kids. Sad that his greed and unlawful conduct would do that to them.” We heard it all. We saw it all.     Our News is sponsored by Buddy Insurance.

In his victory in Florida over the weekend at his first long-distance race, Iden scored 107.23 PTO World Ranking Points, the second highest score for a full-distance race in 2021, just below the stellar performance of 2x World Champion Patrick Lange at Tulsa, where Lange scored 108.88 PTO World Ranking Points. Combined with Iden's 110.18 points scored at the IM 70.3 World Championship® and the 111.34 points he scored at The Collins Cup, this gives Iden a nearly unassailable average of 109.62 PTO World Ranking Points.   With Jan Frodeno, PTO World No. 2, announcing that he is not expected to race again this season, Iden is set to finish the season as PTO World No. 1. This will be the first year since the PTO Rankings began in 2016 that Frodeno has not been PTO World No. 1 and might signal that the Changing of the Guard has well and truly begun.   The PTO World Rankings are based on the average number of PTO World Ranking Points that an athlete has earned for their three best races in 2021. Frodeno's best three races are 112.86 points at The Collins Cup, 107.51 points at Challenge Miami and 88.10 points at Challenge Gran Canaria, giving him an average of 102.82 PTO World Rankings Points. Should Frodeno decide to race again before December 31 and was to score 108.52 or more PTO World Rankings Points, he would reclaim the PTO World No. 1 ranking.   Ironman Arizona Schedule:  Thursday, Nov. 19 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. - IRONMAN Village Opens – Tempe Beach Park Friday, Nov. 20 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. - IRONMAN Village Opens – Tempe Beach Park Media Credential pick up time and location will be coordinated upon approval of credentials.

TriDot is using millions of records from tens of thousands of athletes to make hundreds of calculations to design the perfect workout and training plan.  It then automatically adjusts based on your training and if you miss a workout.    I am signing up to be a TriDot coach because I believe the platform is that good.  But this has caused me to ask the question, what coaching services that am I providing do athletes value most in a coaching relationship?    Question:  Bill, it's been a while since either of us was actively coached, but question for you:  When you accomplished your goal, what services did you appreciate the most?    Here's a list of typical coaching services.  I'll read the list and you tell me what your top 5 and maybe what would be really low on your list.  That work?   Assessing current fitness and realistic goals Designing a perfect training plan Adjust and redesign training for life events or injuries Test and establish athletes training zones Provide inspiration and encouragement Provide feedback and accountability for training compliance Teach best practices and safety during training Teach swim form, drills, bicycle handling and running form Teach strategies for mental resilience Assess hydration and nutrition needs and develop athlete specific strategies Teach how to setup devices to be congruent with training workouts and compatible with athletes gear   Upcoming Guests Marianne Martin is the first woman to win the Tour de France in 1978.  Marianne Martin (born November 1, 1957 in Fenton, Michigan) is an American road racing cyclist. She won the first Tour de France for women in 1984, covering the 616-mile course in 29 hours, 39 minutes, and 2 seconds. The race was held in July and had 18 stages. The women's tour ran the same time as the men's and finished 2–3 hours before the men each day.[1][2]   The year she won the Tour de France Martin suffered from anemia earlier in that year and had been riding poorly. At the race Martin took the lead after stage 14 where the race encountered the mountains. Martin was a good climber and never gave up the lead after that into Paris. The streets were said to contain more two million spectators watching the race.   Martin, along with runners up Heleen Hage (Dutch) and Deborah Shumway (American), stood on the podium with male champions Laurent Fignon, Bernard Hinault and Greg LeMond. Fignon's prizes were valued at over $225,000 (adjusted to 2016). Martin was awarded a trophy and $1,000.[3]   Martin was inducted into the 2012 Boulder (Colorado) Sports Hall of Fame.[4]     Video Of The Week When Mother Nature Says No | DC Peaks 50 Miler 2021     Aid Station Mentality: Enduring Life Challenge's Through Ultra Running     Closing: Thanks again for listening in this week.  Please be sure to follow us @303endurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment.  We'd really appreciate it!

The National Weather Service, for example, instructed hunters and outdoor recreationists to be prepared for winter conditions in the Utah mountains. This type of storm is not unusual for the month of October — and even the second half of September — in this geography, the tops of mountains.   On Saturday, October 9, at 5:30 a.m., the race started off as planned in Kaysville, Utah. This town is just north of Salt Lake City in Davis County, the namesake of DC in the race name. Runners were excited for this autumn ultra, to run a rugged course that traversed the mountain range above the northern Salt Lake City suburbs, including Francis Peak and Bountiful Peak. The more prepared runners had seen the weather forecast and knew the event's high passages, and packed their running vests accordingly with jackets and gloves, some even bringing pants as a precaution.   Kelly Sparks, the Davis County Sheriff, spoke about the shock it was to get a call of this magnitude.   “It's pretty rare, in our part of the country, to get a call that so many people are in need of assistance. We usually deal with groups of twos and threes. We got the call at about 9:30 a.m. that there were runners out on this high altitude course that needed assistance. We sent some SAR people on foot, some on snowmobile, and some on four-wheelers. Some went from the front of the course going forward, and others went from the midpoint backtracking. We needed to ensure everyone could get off safely.”   When asked about the characterization in the initial media reports of runners being lost, Sheriff Sparks stated, “I don't think anyone was lost at that time, but the [race directors] realized that it could become a real situation, with the blowing snow and visibility. We needed to get people to a warm environment as fast as possible.”   The DC Peaks 50 blizzard and athlete rescue is just the tip of the iceberg of this story.  You have to understand where this this story starts with Jake Kilgore as a CEO of a major motorize wheelchair company and the journey to ultra trail running.   Let's talk to Jake Kilgore.     There are ton of details about Jake's experience that we did not get to:   Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 41). Kindle Edition. The doctor's office is left with an Orbit prescription pad in order to make the referral process simple. This pad contains checkboxes and fields for the medical professional to order supplies and materials based on a patient's needs. Many reps would make minor changes to this prescription pad and other paperwork—adding a missed checkbox, filling in a date, or writing in “ninety-nine months” when the length of need is overlooked. Everyone knew it. The owners knew it, I knew it, and our internal reviewers knew it. Although this behavior was not permitted, everyone viewed these actions as not a big deal—and certainly not criminal.     Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 36). Kindle Edition. I used every Sunday for a one-on-one phone call with each of my four kids, rotating through them oldest to youngest, one Sunday at a time. This was the best I could do to keep a close, private, trusted relationship with each child. I dedicated all fifteen minutes to that one child. If you only had fifteen private minutes a month, being recorded by the government, what would you ask your child? What would you talk about? Inmates were charged roughly three bucks for their fifteen minutes.   Kilgore, Jake. Trial Running: Learning Perseverance Through Life's Aid Stations (p. 50). Kindle Edition. We heard the whispers, we saw the looks of “That's Jake Kilgore. The one who's going to prison soon. His poor wife and kids. Sad that his greed and unlawful conduct would do that to them.” We heard it all. We saw it all.     Our News is sponsored by Buddy Insurance.

In his victory in Florida over the weekend at his first long-distance race, Iden scored 107.23 PTO World Ranking Points, the second highest score for a full-distance race in 2021, just below the stellar performance of 2x World Champion Patrick Lange at Tulsa, where Lange scored 108.88 PTO World Ranking Points. Combined with Iden's 110.18 points scored at the IM 70.3 World Championship® and the 111.34 points he scored at The Collins Cup, this gives Iden a nearly unassailable average of 109.62 PTO World Ranking Points.   With Jan Frodeno, PTO World No. 2, announcing that he is not expected to race again this season, Iden is set to finish the season as PTO World No. 1. This will be the first year since the PTO Rankings began in 2016 that Frodeno has not been PTO World No. 1 and might signal that the Changing of the Guard has well and truly begun.   The PTO World Rankings are based on the average number of PTO World Ranking Points that an athlete has earned for their three best races in 2021. Frodeno's best three races are 112.86 points at The Collins Cup, 107.51 points at Challenge Miami and 88.10 points at Challenge Gran Canaria, giving him an average of 102.82 PTO World Rankings Points. Should Frodeno decide to race again before December 31 and was to score 108.52 or more PTO World Rankings Points, he would reclaim the PTO World No. 1 ranking.   Ironman Arizona Schedule:  Thursday, Nov. 19 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. - IRONMAN Village Opens – Tempe Beach Park Friday, Nov. 20 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. - IRONMAN Village Opens – Tempe Beach Park Media Credential pick up time and location will be coordinated upon approval of credentials.

The inaugural Challenge Malta will take place on Sunday 15 May 2022 with a 113km coast-to-coast course that includes the country's most spectacular scenery.   Malta packs a glorious variety into its small archipelago. Malta's landscape contrasts rocky stretches of coast that end in dizzying limestone cliffs with sheltered bays that hide crystal-clear water and red-gold beaches. Combine that with its exotic mix of Italian, French, British and Arabic influences in both architecture and cuisine along with 3,000 hours of sunshine a year and Malta is an exciting new destination for the long distance triathlon world.   Wattie Ink is now Spaero Triathlon Spaero Triathlon, a California-based triathlon apparel brand formerly known as Wattie Ink, has announced its new brand name. The newly branded Spaero Triathlon is also rolling out a new line of advanced technical triathlon gear and an ambassador team program.   “We already have a stellar reputation for technical, high quality performance apparel,” said CEO Ryan Cady. “We are continuing to build on that foundation by working with some of the most advanced fabrics that deliver improved thermal regulation and superior aerodynamics.   “I can't wait to bring these new products to market with a new look and feel.

TriDot is using millions of records from tens of thousands of athletes to make hundreds of calculations to design the perfect workout and training plan.  It then automatically adjusts based on your training and if you miss a workout.    I am signing up to be a TriDot coach because I believe the platform is that good.  But this has caused me to ask the question, what coaching services that am I providing do athletes value most in a coaching relationship?    Question:  Bill, it's been a while since either of us was actively coached, but question for you:  When you accomplished your goal, what services did you appreciate the most?    Here's a list of typical coaching services.  I'll read the list and you tell me what your top 5 and maybe what would be really low on your list.  That work?   Assessing current fitness and realistic goals Designing a perfect training plan Adjust and redesign training for life events or injuries Test and establish athletes training zones Provide inspiration and encouragement Provide feedback and accountability for training compliance Teach best practices and safety during training Teach swim form, drills, bicycle handling and running form Teach strategies for mental resilience Assess hydration and nutrition needs and develop athlete specific strategies Teach how to setup devices to be congruent with training workouts and compatible with athletes gear   Upcoming Guests Marianne Martin is the first woman to win the Tour de France in 1978.  Marianne Martin (born November 1, 1957 in Fenton, Michigan) is an American road racing cyclist. She won the first Tour de France for women in 1984, covering the 616-mile course in 29 hours, 39 minutes, and 2 seconds. The race was held in July and had 18 stages. The women's tour ran the same time as the men's and finished 2–3 hours before the men each day.[1][2]   The year she won the Tour de France Martin suffered from anemia earlier in that year and had been riding poorly. At the race Martin took the lead after stage 14 where the race encountered the mountains. Martin was a good climber and never gave up the lead after that into Paris. The streets were said to contain more two million spectators watching the race.   Martin, along with runners up Heleen Hage (Dutch) and Deborah Shumway (American), stood on the podium with male champions Laurent Fignon, Bernard Hinault and Greg LeMond. Fignon's prizes were valued at over $225,000 (adjusted to 2016). Martin was awarded a trophy and $1,000.[3]   Martin was inducted into the 2012 Boulder (Colorado) Sports Hall of Fame.[4]     Video Of The Week When Mother Nature Says No | DC Peaks 50 Miler 2021   Aid Station Mentality: Enduring Life Challenge's Through Ultra Running   Closing: Thanks again for listening in this week.  Please be sure to follow us @303endurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment.  We'd really appreciate it!

The unPAved Weekend Challenge, over 2 of the best cuts of the unPAved course set up as timed segments to test yourself on while you spend a weekend vacation in the Susquehanna River Valley. There will be swag, random prizes and lots of fun ways to play along from August 1st through October 11th and registration is now open. Weekend Challenge costs $40. THE unPAved FULL-120 RACE One of Cyclingnews’ “Top-10 Gravel Races in the U.S.A.” will happen this year, on October 11th, though will be significantly different with a reduced field size, eliminating the mass-start and DONEpaved Finisher Party, and including a significant amount of protocols in place to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Some highlights: 200 PARTICIPANTS Current guidelines for outdoor events in Pennsylvania is a max of 250 people, which includes staff, volunteers, mechanics, medics, marshalls, everybody. This field size will also help make the sign-in and aid stations manageable with the extra protocols in place.  FULL-120 ONLY There’s only going to be one field this year, so it’s for the Full-120 miles, and 10,000’ of climbing on some of the best gravel and dirt (in other words, unpaved) roads found anywhere. LOTTERY REGISTRATION Participants can profess their desire to participate until midnight, August 2nd. Announcements on attendance will be made on August 3rd, which is when they will be charged the $150 entry fee. OPEN WAITLIST Everybody who doesn’t get into the field will be placed in the Waitlist. If COVID-related restrictions, and the confidences related to it, lift between now and October as many people from the Waitlist will be included as possible & safe. Also, anybody who doesn’t get in from the Waitlist this year will get the opportunity to register early for unPAved 2021.  INDIVIDUAL START TIMES All riders will get a time to arrive in the start area and called-up when it is time for them to begin their 120-mile race, or ride. Riders will be asked for how they plan to ride unPAved during the registration process: “Taking in all the sights, sounds and smells. Ready, willing and able to spend all day out there.” “Not going to win, place or show but that doesn’t mean I’m going to dilly & dally too much.” “If there’s a clock running I’m going to see how I do. Get me to the whoopie pies!” SIGNIFICANT COVID-19 PROTOCOLS Including temperature checks, mask-mandatory zones, no indoor venues, different food & drink available at Aid Stations, two extra drop-bag spots on course, and no DONEpaved Party.  Last year, Kelly Catale (Seven Cycles) returned to her college town for the event, and left as the 2019 unPAved Women’s Whoopie-Pie Winner. She’s planning to come back to defend her title: “I am so excited to participate in this re-imagined version of unPAved that will enable me to stay safe during this time while enjoying one of my favorite places to ride!” THE unPAved WEEKEND CHALLENGE A second option for people who want to ride unPAved, though maybe not all of it, is by spending a weekend riding the beautiful farm roads & big forest hills, and taking on a special challenge over two of the best parts of the unPAved course: “The Proper Parts” and “The Difference!”  This challenge is open from August 1st through October 11th, and open to anybody visiting the region, and willing & able to ride the courses unsupported.  Riders can take this challenge on any weekend between August 1st and October 11th by riding solo, or with their teammates, friends or family (practicing best COVID-19 protocols, of course). The Susquehanna River Visitors Bureau has worked with a number of hotels in the region on special weekend packages—complete with unPAved Swag Bags and special offers from sponsors when they check in. Proceeds will benefit a variety of local charities, as well as the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Cycling League. Digital routes will be provided that are marked with water and facilities that are available and any nearby food stops. Riders can start & finish their ride from anywhere, as long as the Strava Segment on course is completed. Riders will need to post their rides to Strava, RideWithGPS or similar online service that’s visible to event staff. A leaderboard will be posted for bragging rights, but all prizes from sponsors will be random. THOUGHTS ON THE CHANGES “Fortunately for unPAved, we have had the time and opportunities to talk with government officials, epidemiologists, our participants and the local community to create a different event for this very different year,” said Dave Pryor, unPAved’s Promoter. “Pennsylvania has done an incredible job mitigating the curve, and it appears that outdoor recreation is one of the safest things people can do at this time—with extra precautions to take care of each other. We are also well-aware there are a number of ways that the event will need to change again, or even be cancelled as we continue to live through a pandemic. Both the local and gravel communities have been amazing to be a part of through this and we will all be in constant communication with both—because that’s how communities move forward.” “The Susquehanna River Valley Visitors Bureau is proud to be the Title Sponsor of unPAved of the Susquehanna River Valley,” said Andrew Miller, Executive Director. “For the last two years we’ve had the distinct pleasure and excitement to introduce and promote the Susquehanna River Valley as a ‘must-do’ destination for gravel cyclists from the United States and Canada. unPAved adventure cyclists are living their best lives when they come to the Susquehanna River Valley and have praised the event and the destination. Their experiences and joy with unPAved has exceeded our expectations. 2020 will be a different event in a very different world but the adventure, friendly competition, beauty of the Susquehanna River Valley and the joy of gravel cycling will now and always remain the same.” “Salsa Cycles is thrilled to support another year of Pennsylvania dirt riding in the Susquehanna River Valley,” said Lindsay Beltchenko, Marketing Manager of Salsa Cycles (the official bikes & frames of unPAved). “Despite the challenges unPAved has been faced with due to the pandemic, they have put their best foot forward with amending their event plan to provide a safe and fun gravel experience for all.” Along with the Susquehanna River Valley Visitors Bureau and Salsa Cycles, unPAved sponsors include Stan’s NoTubes (official wheels & sealant), GU Energy Labs (official hydration), Floyd’s of Leadville (official CBD recovery products), Ritchey Logic, Voler Apparel, Purple Lizard Maps, Nittany Mountain Works, R.E.Load Bags, Philly Bike Expo, and Chamois Butt’r.  To follow along with the events, and to stay updated on any further changes, visit unpavedpennsylvania.com, and follow them on social media at facebook.com/unpavedPA, twitter.com/unpavedPA, and instagram.com/unpavedpennsylvania.

In this month's banter episode, Eli and Tony talk about a podcast trick called "chocolate raining" and agree that neither of them ever want that term in their Google search history. They also agree to only talk about one coronavirus topic per episode, and then set a timer on themselves to keep their conversation about how Aid Stations might look different after coronavirus from taking over the whole episode. An interesting experiment at the London Marathon and Tony's experience with Tetra Pak at the Dallas Marathon both pose interesting potential solutions, as do enhanced self-serve and BYO hydration options.Inspired by images from a Twitter thread about irregularly-shaped running tracks, Christina does a pop-in segment where she and Eli reminisce about their glory days competing in indoor track when they were juuuust a little younger, and talk about fun non-traditional events that could be held on irregular tracks. And then Eli asks Tony to share his recent non-traditional coronavirus running routine--inspired by some combination of Forrest Gump, Mike Wardian, and Stacy saying in the previous episode that she thinks of Eli as more of a runner than Tony. Tony also shares how he and some industry folks have been supporting other runners during the pandemic and how you can, too.We had so much to talk about this episode that we went over our monthly time allowance with our hosting service, so buckle up!If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts, and don't forget to subscribe.

Get all the low down on Aid Stations from Westie the IRONMAN NZ Aid Station Director

Eoin Keith was the winner of the 2019 Oman by UTMB 170Km race.  In this podcast he tells us all about his race and includes some tips and strategies for anyone thinking of taking part in future events.  The JBS is an incredibly tough and technical challenge only recommended for extremely experienced adventurers. Participants must be confident in their ability to cover very challenging terrain whilst being completely self-sufficient for a minimum of 10 hours as there are significant distances between the Aid Stations on the Jebel Shams section of the route. Athletes taking on this epic challenge will follow the 130KM route up Jebel Al Akhdar, including the vertical climb out of Balad Sayt, before carrying on along the top of the plateau and following the trail around Jebel Shams, where they will climb to an altitude of almost 3,000m. Runners arriving at the Aid Station at Col Trail Split within the barrier time, the point at which the Jebel Shams section starts, will be evaluated before being allowed to continue with the JBS. Those runners found not to be in a condition to take on the additional section will be re-directed onto the JBA route and will be reclassified into the JBA race. This also applies to runners arriving after the barrier time. With the new qualification criteria for UTMB in Chamonix, runners completing the 130KM or 170KM distances will bypass the lottery and have a guaranteed entry for UTMB 2020.
