It rebuilt his confidence and led him to realize his dream of opening his own running store!He has been a triathlon coach for 20 years and is also the wetsuit designer for Blueseventy. He runs his own blog where he shares a weekly post on various ideas around coaching.Lance's story is the closest I've seen to a fairy tale related to personal fitness. Hope you enjoy the episode!

Have you been told that you can't run again? Bill was told that he shouldn't ever run again in his 20's and has proven them wrong by competing in triathlons and doing well! He is now competing in the BlueSeventy 2021 Triathlon Team. Bill's story will inspire you! 

Goggles! We all think that we have the goggle thing figured out but did you know that most of us are wearing the wrong googles to suit our needs and the style of our face! Rebecca and Carla take their questions to the expert, Lance Carter from Blue Seventy, to demystify choosing the right googles for training and racing. And you heard it here...a new pair of the right googles can be a game changer!

BlueSeventy is a leading provider of all things swimming, open water swimming and more. On today’s episode Rebecca and Carla discuss all things wetsuits with Lance Carter, Product Development at Blue Seventy. He shares his knowledge on the evolution of endurance wetsuits over the years, how to find the right wetsuit to meet your needs, how to put on a wetsuit, the difference between a $300, $500, $800 wetsuit and some things that surprised him over the years of training and racing triathlon and working at Blue Seventy.

Welcome to the fourth Low Tide Boyz swimrun gear review show! This review is once again co-hosted by our friends at Swimrun Labs and this is going to be a regular thing going forward to we’re very happy about that.Like our swimrun shoe Shoedown episode, this episode covers that nebulous category of Swimrun gear that goes beneath your Swimrun gear. Think undershirts, bras, undies, nothing, and socks! Welcome to the Underwear episode. Let’s get right to it!Global Considerations in Selecting Undergarments for SwimrunChaffing AbatementWarmthStorage Capacity“Bogginess” (wet diaper effect)Chaffing a big issue so we broke this down a bit. Body Glide, Vaseline, 2Toms Sports Shield or Tri Slide are essential to try to keep your wetsuit from chaffing your neck, arms or thighs. Brooke uses multiple layers of Body Glide and 2Toms on her skin and separately her wetsuit. Lubing up neck, armpits, any other opening, bra line and the “nether regions.” Another option for abatement which we learned from Team Envol Baywatch (listen to Episode 6 with them here) is the use Rocktape or KT Tape around the neckline where the wetsuit would make contact.Anyway, chaffing is annoying and can get debilitating the longer the event. Take it seriously and avoid it like your life (or at least your skin’s life) depends on it!Next, we’re going to breakdown undergarment choices going from head to toe.HeadThe main thing in this region is wearing something under your race swim cap if the conditions call for it. There are neoprene caps (with or without chin straps) that Roka, Blue Seventy, Ark Sports and others make and non-neoprene caps like TYR Warmwear caps.“Wetsuit Region”One challenge with Swimrun is the gear that you need to carry on board for longer races and the lack of storage capacity in most Swimrun wetsuits. Ark Sports and NU make special undershirts that have kangaroo pockets for extra storage under the wetsuit. NU also makes some sports bras for women (or men we guess) that also have a pocket in the front. For warmth, an undershirt would help. For ladies, one product that worked for Brooke was the Smartwool Merino Wool racer back sports bra.A question that we get a lot is “what do you wear under your swimrun wetsuit?” There are a lot of options to choose from but we recommend something with compression and made of synthetic fibers so that they don’t ride up under the suit and also wick water away. Sporty underwear should be the first place you look at. The main thing to about is anything with big seams (due to the potential for chaffing) or things that might ride up and create rolled-up material that would be super uncomfortable.FeetThe question that we get the most is what socks to wear for Swimrun. We recommend NOT using cotton socks or socks that have extra padding or cushioning in the footbed or toes (to prevent bogginess). Using a wicking sock like a thin running or cycling sock that is higher than ankle length is the way to go. Ankle socks could lead to getting more rocks or sand in your shoes. A couple of brands that we like are Gococo (the official sock of Ötillö), CEP, Stance (the run infiknit socks) or Swiftwick (Aspire is the best model that we found for Swimrun). Brooke uses neoprene socks for racing, specifically, ankle neoprene socks called the Seavenger Zepher. Blue Seventy makes booties that can also be used. This is definitely an area where you want to test to make sure that using booties is going to work for you in a race.So…This was a lot of information and we covered a lot of ground. The main takeaway should be that there are a lot of different ways to get to the finish line. All four of us used different products and were happy with it. We suggest starting with what you have and experimenting from there.That’s it for this week’s special edition show.

Welcome to episode twenty of the Low Tide Boyz, a Swimrun Podcast!On this week’s show we have the CEO of blueseventy, John Duquette. We had a great conversation about the brand and their expansion into swimrun.For shout outs this week we are saying hi to Sossi! She’s a Bay Area swimmer and former triathlete that is a big fan of the show. She recently reached out to Chris to let him know that there was a swimrun team (in blueseventy Alliance swimrun wetsuits incidentally) training at Aquatic Park. While we appreciate the intel it was made funnier by two other of our friends letting us know that they saw a team out there on the same day! This week is also her birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOSSI!Training continues this week with Chipper starting to ramp back up on volume and Chris keeps reliving the glory days with a lot of volume of running, cycling and cross-training. Make sure to join our strava club to follow along with our workouts and other LTBz fans.Now for this week’s interview. We were lucky to get a chance to talk to John about the history of blueseventy and their development of their swimrun wetsuit.John Duquette started racing triathlon in 1999 and since then has competed in multisport, running and cycling races all over the world. After working at a Seattle running store for 7 years he joined the team at blueseventy in 2007. In 2015 he was named CEO and purchased the brand in 2017. After 20 years in the endurance space he’s seen and experienced enough to tell stories well past last call in the local pub. While he still enjoys racing his mountain bike his primary focus now is making sure his two children develop a love for the outdoors and making sure his dog gets enough exercise to keep him from chewing up his running shoes.The company was actually founded in 1993 as Ironman Wetsuits and did business under that brand name until 2006. The company rebranded as blueseventy in 2006 and John joined the team in 2007. blueseventy is a small company where everyone is an athlete and into open water swimming.Swimrun first came onto the their attention from their distributors in Europe. They started working on a suit for 2 years before they ended up releasing their suit. Mike Orton, a former Olympic swimmer, was the chief designer of the suit that was perfect for swimming and geared for durability. The Alliance Swimrun wetsuit was the result. (You can read our swimrun gear review of the Alliance Swimrun wetsuit here.)The next version in development will have a zipper on the front and the back, sleeves that are removable and re-attachable and better materials. They will also start working on a new performance-based suit. They are also working on additional products that are specific for swimrun like new swim paddle designs and larger pull buoys.John and the folks at blueseventy were cool enough to set up a discount code for our fans to use for 20% off of the site. Just use the code SWIMRUN at checkout for 20% off everything on their site.That’s it for this week’s show.

Welcome to the first ever Low Tide Boyz swimrun gear review! This week we are reviewing the blueseventy Alliance Swimrun Wetsuit.blueseventy was cool enough to send us a couple of suits to put through the paces and they gave us their blessing to do an unbiased review based on our experience and, admittedly mediocre, athletic abilities. Check out the suit at blueseventy.com and remember to use the discount code SWIMRUN for 20% off anything in the store.The SuitOverall, the blueseventy Alliance swimrun wetsuit is a great suit. With a bunch of key swimrun features such as two internal pockets, front zipper, built-in tether loops, large back pocket and rubberized neoprene for durability, this suit is definitely versatile and durable. It comes with fully taped long sleeves that athletes can cut to their desired length. (We didn’t cut the suits for reasons we’ll explain later.) The blueseventy Alliance is available in men’s and women’s specific styles and retails for $270. This price point already makes this a very economical suit that is built to last. It comes in one colorway, black with orange elements. We weren’t huge fans of the orange but it is great for visibility in open water so we can’t knock it that much for that. The TestWe tested the suits while doing our swimrun trainings leading up to Ötillö Catalina in the Bay Area. The water temps were pretty chilly and in all, we spent about 3-4 hours in the suits putting it through the paces of swimming, running and transitions.The Swim Review The suit was great in the water. Given how cold the conditions were when we were testing the suits, we definitely appreciated the thicker neoprene of the Alliance. As mentioned above, because of the cold conditions we ended up not cutting the sleeves we were liking having the extra coverage. This is definitely a swimmer’s suit. Good buoyancy throughout the torso. The shoulder neoprene felt just right, not too thin and not too thick. The neck was comfortable and the zipper didn’t feel obtrusive in any way. As mentioned above, we were really appreciating the thickness in cold water but we were worried about potentially overheating if conditions were warmer.The Run ReviewWe felt that this was definitely a swimmer’s suit…when we were running. Given the thickness of the neoprene, we experienced some overheating on the runs and on one occasion we stopped to cab down because Chipper was “roasting.” We also experienced some hip impingement while running. We felt that the neoprene in the hip flexor region was a bit too thick for long running efforts and thought that this could lead to run fatigue. That being said, we did see teams at the Catalina race run in the suits no problem so this issue might be athlete-specific. Low Tide Boyz’z Rankings(We’re unveiling are new pull buoy ranking system for our gear reviews! 5 pull buoys being the best and 1 pull buoy being the worst.)Chipper: 3.5 Pull BuoysChipper though that the blueseventy Alliance swimrun wetsuit was good suit for certain races/ water temps but was worried about it in warmer races. It’s a good value swimrun wetsuit and its durability really makes this a perfect training suit. The suit could have used some exterior pockets in the thighs and more accessible areas for nutrition storage since the internal pockets we are bit tough to access without a lot of effort. Overall, he plans on training in the suit and maybe racing in it, if the weather conditions seem to indicate that the Alliance is the suit to use.Chris: 4 Pull BuoysChris gave the Alliance 4 pull buoys for mostly the same reasons as Chipper. For him, the value of the suit at $270 (or $216 with the 20% off discount code SWIMRUN) made it a great suit for beginners or folks that want to have a more cold weather suit in their stable of options. He wasn’t a fan of the orange on the suit but he’s a diva and everybody knows that. Finally, if getting cold during a swimrun—especially towards the end of the race—then this suit is a great choice. Overall ImpressionsOverall, we would definitely recommend folks checking out the blueseventy Alliance swimrun wetsuit. We are definitely stoked on the suit and plan on using it in training pretty regularly. Check out the suit at blueseventy.com and remember to use the discount code SWIMRUN for 20% off anything in the store.

Today’s guest is Canadian Professional Triathlete; Jackson Laundry. Now I am excited to talk to Jackson today for so many reasons. First off, he’s a fellow Canadian in Ontario where I am from so I see him on the podium at the odd local race and he's an absolutely phenomenal triathlete. Secondly, he is a STAC Performance athlete which is obviously very fitting for this Podcast, as we are big fans of STAC Performance and their indoor bike trainers on this podcast. Surprisingly enough he also rocks a Blue Seventy wetsuit which is awesome because again, like STAC; we are big Blue Seventy supporters! He also is a member of the LPC triathlon club which is the 2nd triathlete from the LPC team on the show and he’s also the 2nd of the pro’s that come out of Guelph to be on the show; and as you’ll hear in the episode; Guelph seems to be Ontario’s mecca city for top performing triathletes as of late! Today’s podcast we will get to hear from him all about his training and racing with the guys from Guelph and the LPC Team and how training in numbers can be beneficial, and we also talk about how he’s dialed in his aerodynamics in cycling by using the STAC Performance Virtual Wind Tunnel! Jackson gives us a ton of takeaways when it comes to training so definitely be sure to grab a pen and paper, and enjoy the episode!

Today’s guest is the Professional Australian triathlete, Scody athlete, Super League triathlete, and Blue Seventy athlete; Felicity Sheedy-Ryan! Now I am super excited about todays episode because of course Blue Seventy and Scody both happen to be supporters of this podcast channel so I love to get to chat with pro triathletes that wear both scody and Blue Seventy, and Felicity happens to represent both! Now aside from her great taste in apparel and swimwear, she is also a Super League Triathlete which has been all the rage as of lately and I can’t wait to dive into more of it in today’s episode. So Felicity tied in 2nd in Bali at the Super League Qualifiers which gave her a golden ticket to compete in the Super League Championship Series this year so she will be able to compete with the best triathletes in the world to compete for the championship title! Felicity notably has been a 2 x world Duathlon Champion and has competed in the ITU series for over 10 years so she has a wealth of knowledge and experience that we will get to listen into today!

Today’s guest is the MX Endurance CEO and Co Host of Think Fit Podcast, Tim Ford! So, this episode is going to be extra special because not only is Tim another Blue Seventy athlete, not only is Tim a Super League Triathlete (which I’m so pumped to talk about), but he’s also a co-host on his own Podcast called ThinkfitPod! Tim has a crazy story of getting into triathlon because unlike many who we get to interview; Tim had to lose 50kgs to get to where he is today! Now He is fitter then ever, happier then ever, and honestly is just a really cool guy and you’ll get to see that in this episode! I am excited to talk about a number of topics in this podcast and im even more excited for you guys to hear it! In this episode we’ll get to talk about Tim’s background in Triathlon and how he lost over 50kgs in weight through the sport. We also chat about how he got into super league and what he loves about it and talk about how it differs from IRONMAN style of racing! We also talk about what it's like being the CEO of MX Endurance and running his Think Fit Podcast while being an actively competing Triathlete. Tim gives us a ton of advice on training, mindset in triathlon, and goal setting as a triathlete! I could listen to Tim all day when it comes to his perception on triathlon and where the sport is heading so definitely be sure to sit back, relax, and enjoy!

This episode is filled with laughs, smiles, and tons of information on international travel. I talk with Kelsey who placed third at this event. We talk about some of the real life struggles as a professional triathlete and what it’s like to go far away from home for a race. It’s not always as glamorous as people think. She’s got some new sponsors, such as Suunto, which I’m really excited about and many more. Kelsey had some issues with her bike before the race and she talks about the amazing customer support that is there in Argentina. Being a split transition race we talk about some of the more complicated things too and what it’s like when change your diet the day prior to race day. Kelsey and her friend Caroline often ride together and they both found something unexpected in a pocket on a ride recently. I really enjoyed this awesome conversation, I hope you do too.

I continue the IRONMAN© Louisville series with Professional triathlete Erin Green. Erin is an amazingly humble person and was kind enough to sit down and talk about her not so great of a day at Louisville. While she didn’t finish the race, she was able to learn a great deal about herself through this journey. We discuss something that hasn’t been talked about much on the show and that’s how do you pick a coach. She was with a coach for many years and we talk about how this break up happened, the selection of the new coach, interviewing, and much more. Erin talks about what it’s like as a professional to train and race at the elite level as well as some of the perks of being a Pro.

I only do one episode for Ironman Santa Rosa, this episode is with Anastasia McKay. She talks about the training going into the race. She mentions the difficulty in traveling from Kentucky to California. We talk about the road quality of the course along with how the aid stations on this course are not very favorable and some were unmanned. The first transition has a long run up a hill that many would want to be aware of prior registering. The hills through the course were quite fun, but some unforeseen conditions made the bike course interesting. Anastasia mentions the amazing volunteers at the second transition area. She also talks about how she tackles the run of the race.-Quote of the episode: “It was perhaps the scariest things I’ve seen in triathlon.”-Enjoy the show.

In this episode I continue the Ironman Haines City series with my friend Michael Rasco. Michael has a solid race overall and goes into the details of traveling from further away to this race. He has a ton of fun on the race course and enjoys the challenge of the day but passes on some key tips for getting his bike down to the race site and even how to have some fun. He talks about hanging out with Big Sexy Racing and enjoyed being in the team atmosphere. He has a great amount of experience racing as he has completed more than 40-70.3’s and in 2015 he was selected to race Kona for a national charity, Children’s Tumor Foundation. In this humbling experience he was able to raise more than $40,000 for children in need of assistance. This allows him to have a fair assessment of the course and give some solid feedback of this course. He mentions some tips for getting the morning started on a good note and tips for keeping training simple. He also gives a lot of credit to Chris and Erika McDonald, the owners of Big Sexy Racing.-Enjoy the show.

Neal Oseland is a married 38 year old, father of 2 young girls. Earlier this season, he trained for IM Coeur d'Alene in hopes of qualifying for Kona and raced a 10:31 to miss a slot by 13+ minutes. He was very dissapointed but kept plugging away. He entered a half in September claiming to be burnt out and wanting the season to be over with. At this half, he won a raffle entry into the Silverman Full Distance. That fired him up but the problem is that it was only 6 weeks away. He had already told his family that he was just about ready for his offseason. Well, after some discussions with his wife and kids, they jumped on board and pushed him to do it. He used his IMCDA base and trained hard for 4 weeks then tapered for 2. He told me the day before the race..."I'm going to take it easy during the swim and the bike and shoot for a top 10 run time" Well, he didn't get that top 10 run time but he did get a top 10 OVERALL time!! He says he went super easy on the swim (96 overall split) and pretty easy on the bike (5th overall split) and finished with the 14th run split. There was 10,000 feet of climbing on the bike which he said was not too bad as he lives in Colorado so he's used to those long climbs. The run is what was so hard for him. He said it's the hardest marathon he's ever done even outside of triathlon which is saying something. It was either straight up or down. He looked forward to the ups because the downs were hurting so bad on his quads. He got himself into 1st in his age group after the bike and never let it go. To show how strong he was, he had to sprint the last 200m of the finish as someone was chasing him down at the finish. He beat him though.
