Can technology truly enhance athletic performance, or are athletes becoming overly dependent on data? Join us as we explore how tech overload affects endurance athletes, sometimes hindering performance by drowning them in a sea of metrics. We share personal experiences and introduce Product 28, an initiative urging athletes to unplug, trust their instincts, and focus on the essence of training, much like the precision required in NASCAR, where only a few key metrics really matter. From primitive tracking tools to social media-like community hubs, training platforms like TrainingPeaks and Strava have revolutionized how athletes engage with their routines. We examine the cultural shift they've sparked—where sharing workouts has become as anxiety-inducing as missing them. Strava's evolution, in particular, serves as a fascinating case study of how gamification and social sharing reshape training behaviors, often prioritizing social validation over personal fitness goals. Data paralysis is real, and it's reshaping athletic training. Athletes can find themselves overwhelmed by sleep trackers, HRV graphs, and AI-driven workouts that make decisions for them, leading to outsourced decision-making and a disconnect from their intuition. We recount a personal tale from the 2009 Ironman Coeur d'Alene that underscores the value of listening to one's body over blindly following data. Through this narrative, we highlight the importance of balancing technology with personal insight for a more fulfilling training journey.

Have you ever wondered about the life of a professional triathlete? In this podcast series, we interview current and retired QT2 Systems Professional Triathletes, exploring the path to earning (and maintaining) a pro license, the nuts and bolts of training and racing, and the ups and downs along the way. The guests also share how being a pro triathlete shaped their lives, and what advice they would give to their younger selves. Episode 6 features Doug MacLean. In 2006, at age 26, without any significant swim, bike or run experience, Doug decided to enter the world of triathlon. He raced IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene and IRONMAN Lake Placid in 2017, finishing both in under 11 hours. In December of 2018, Doug decided to dedicate himself to training and racing full time. After a couple of years of being self-coached, Doug came to QT2 Systems in 2009. Under the coaching guidance of Tim Snow, Doug raced his first Kona in 2010, and then in 2011, won the amateur race at IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene, earning his pro license. Doug jumped straight into the pro circuit, and earned his first paycheck in his second race. Doug raced as a pro from 2011 through 2019, with his most memorable races coming late in his career - IRONMAN Boulder in 2018, and Challenge Roth in 2019. Through triathlon, Doug was able to achieve his childhood goal of becoming a professional athlete.

The chill of the water at Ironman Coeur d'Alene was nothing compared to the cold shock I received just weeks before—the crash that threatened to derail months of preparation. Yet, as I narrate my tale of conquering the unexpected, from the restfulness that followed the accident to the frigid swim and a marathon that tested my limits, you'll discover the essence of endurance racing is as much about mental resilience as it is about physical prowess. Together, we explore the art of pacing, the critical choices made in the spur of the moment, and how to maintain control even when the body screams to stop or go. Every stride, every stroke, every turn of the pedal is a lesson in meticulous planning and execution, a symphony where each note is a planned training session or a strategic decision. We delve into the importance of a disciplined approach, from the granular details of daily training flow charts to the high-stakes moments that define a race. Join me as I reflect on the strategies that build a foundation strong enough to withstand the pressures of race day, and how a structured blueprint is crucial for anyone seeking to push their limits in the world of endurance sports.
We've been fed a narrative that you can't get faster after a certain age. We used to say 40. Definitely not after 50. Could you possibly get faster after 60?

Alex Torres, an Ironman Triathlete, shares his journey of overcoming challenges and realizing his potential to become an Ironman. Alex started his athletic journey as the "runt of the Torres family," but through hard work and determination, he proved everyone wrong and accomplished his goal of becoming an Ironman. One of the key pieces of advice that Alex shares is to never forget your "why." This is what will keep you motivated and inspired during the long and tedious moments of training. He also emphasizes that discipline and perseverance are essential in becoming an Ironman, but these qualities are anchored on your "why." Another important point that Alex mentions is that you don't have to have the most expensive equipment to participate in a triathlon. He was once embarrassed by his lack of fancy gear, but he was reminded that it's all about the "engine," meaning the person themselves. To sum it up, becoming an Ironman is achievable if you have the physical capability, financial means, and most importantly, the determination and commitment to see it through. Find your "why," stay committed, and never let anyone tell you that you can't do it. The choice is yours to cross that finish line and hear your name being called as an Ironman. Episode Highlights: Alex has completed multiple Iron Man races Dreams of writing a book Apologizes to younger self for past hurts Believes everything is possible with effort Encourages listeners to find their "why" and stay committed Iron Man requires grit, determination, perseverance and discipline Success depends on aligning all elements with your "why" You have the choice to cross the finish line, whatever the distance Guest Bio Alexander Torres is a native of Gary, IN. Alumnus of Indiana University. He is a former member of the Horace Mann High School track & cross-country teams. He continued his running in the United States Army as a member of the Commander's Cup Team. Alex ran his first marathon in 2004, the Chicago Marathon. He has ran the Chicago Marathon every year it has been held since 2004. Alex is currently registered for the 2023 Chicago Marathon which will be his 19th consecutive Chicago Marathon. Alex first official race as an adult post military was the marathon distance. In 2010, he decided to compete in his first Ironman race, Ironman Louisville.

We've all heard the saying “Life is about choices.” Although it is tempting to point a finger to negative experiences, bad people, or peer pressure, it is still up to us to pick the path to move forward on their journey. James Eastland is a Marine, Veteran, ultramarathoner, and entrepreneur. However, he really should be a statistic. His biological father was sent to jail when he was 11 and released when James was 46. He had a few years with an engaged step dad, but that was lost when his mom divorced him. He lived in the projects with a single, struggling mother and older brother. During these years he and his brother survived severe childhood abuse. It was a few caring people, a pastor and a youth group that helped guide him on the right path. He watched his older brother make choices with outcomes leading him to murder their grandmother and spending the majority of his life in jail. It only reinforced his choices to make the best life possible. Join Jay and Donna as they talk with James about his childhood, his journey into adulthood, and the choices that led him to where he is currently in his life. They will focus on resilience, discuss how each of us have the ability to choose the life we envision, and the work he is doing to give back to his community.

USA Triathlon has long had a tradition of promoting women in multisport, including equal prize money for elite events, the formation of the USA Triathlon Women's Committee in 2010 and February's landmark achievement of adding the 40th school in the nation to offer women's triathlon at the varsity level, which set in motion women's triathlon to become an NCAA Championship sport. A five-month celebration of women's varsity collegiate triathlon and women in the sport of triathlon and the multisport community kicks off today on the 50th anniversary of Title IX and runs through November, following the fall 2022 women's varsity collegiate triathlon season. For those who are interested in being a part of the celebration please email diversity@usatriathlon.org. The five-month celebration will include the Together, We Thrive Powerful Women in Multisport Series, a social and digital content series that will focus on women who helped pave the way for women to compete in triathlon. To kick off the series, USA Triathlon has highlighted on its social media pages nine women in multisport who share what Title IX means to them in its Nine Days of Title IX celebration. USA Triathlon will give 10 multisport women's legacy packages to influential women in multisport, which includes one USA Triathlon Lifetime Membership and one free entry to USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships, USA Triathlon Multisport National Championships and the Toyota Legacy Triathlon. USA Triathlon will also award the inaugural Together, We Thrive Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Access Award. USA Triathlon is launching its Women's Series, a series of locally organized USA Triathlon Sanctioned events across the country designed to grow and support the women's multisport community, in 2023. Applications to be included in the series will be accepted July through August with the formal announcement of participating events coming in late fall. The series will include a combination of women's-only triathlons and duathlons, instructional clinics and social gatherings that will accommodate new athletes to experienced athletes. 1974: Triathlon was invented by the San Diego Track Club with the Mission Bay Triathlon. The club has a storied history of leading the way in gender equity 1978: Judy Collins and her husband, Commander John Collins, both participants in the 1974 Mission Bay Triathlon, launch the Hawaiian Iron Man Triathlon in Waikiki, which combined the Waikiki Roughwater Swim, Honolulu Marathon, and a local cycling club route. 1979: Lyn Lemaire, a 28-year-old from Massachusetts, becomes the first woman to compete in the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon. Lemaire beats all but four men in the 15-person field. 1982: U.S. triathlete Julie Moss captivates a global audience with her crawl to the finish line at the Hawaii Ironman. 1983: Sally Edwards publishes the first book on triathlon. “Triathlon: A Triple Fitness Sport,” offers a comprehensive guide for training for “a total new fitness” based on her own experience in the sport. 1986: Using funds from an anonymous donor, the Hawaii Ironman introduces a prize purse for professional athletes. And in a move unprecedented in many other major sporting events, the payout is equal for both men and women — a standard that remains the status quo. 1990: Danskin launches a women's-only triathlon series in three cities: Long Beach, California, San Jose, California, and New York City. The growth of the Danskin series, as well as similar women-only events like Trek Triathlon and Irongirl races, are credited with boosting numbers among women in the sport. 2000: Triathlon makes its Olympic debut at the Sydney Games. The United States sends a trio of women Down Under, including Joanna Zeiger, who finishes fourth. 2004: Susan Williams, a 35-year-old mom from Long Beach, California, wins the first Olympic medal for the U.S. in triathlon, earning bronze at the Athens Games. 2005: U.S. Olympian Barb Lindquist retires as a professional and helps create USA Triathlon's Collegiate Recruitment Program, which identifies talent from the NCAA swimming and running programs as a way to funnel athletes toward the Olympic pipeline. She finds future Olympic gold medalist Gwen Jorgensen. 2014: Triathlon is designated as an NCAA Emerging Sport for Women 2016: Jorgensen caps her pro triathlon career by grabbing gold at the Rio Olympic Games, the first- gold medal for an American triathlete 2016: U.S. elite paratriathletes Grace Norman and Allysa Seely each win gold at the Paralympic Games. Hailey Danz and Melissa Stockwell also won medals, combining to sweep the podium in the PT2 sport class along with Seely. 2021: Katie Zaferes wins Olympic bronze at the delayed Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 and the U.S. is one of only four countries to qualify three women for the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, and one of only two countries to place all three athletes in the top-20 with Zaferes winning bronze, Summer Rappaport placing 14th and Taylor Knibb 16th. 2021: Seely won gold Paralympic again to become the only female two-time Paralympic triathlete gold medalist. Danz became a two-time PTS2 silver medalist and Norman earned a silver in the PTS5 category. Kendall Gretsch also won the first women's triathlon wheelchair race in Paralympic history and became the fifth American to win gold medals at both the summer and winter Paralympic Games. 2022: USA Triathlon adds two college programs to offer women's collegiate triathlon to reach the milestone of 40 schools. Women's triathlon is now on its way to becoming an NCAA Championship Sport. Colorado driver accused of "intentionally" hitting two cyclists — critically injuring one — still at large Police investigating a hit-and-run that wounded two cyclists in Evergreen, Colorado, on Sunday morning. One of the cyclists, identified as a woman by local authorities, suffered critical injuries as a result of the crash. A 2018 Ford Escape registered to 39-year-old Alan "Haley" Mill allegedly swerved onto the shoulder of an interstate highway about 30 miles west of Denver. Witnesses told police the driver deliberately hit both cyclists before fleeing and later abandoning the vehicle. Witnesses said they saw Mill attempting "to dislodge a badly damaged bicycle from beneath his vehicle" in the parking lot of a restaurant after the collision, CBS Denver reported. The SUV, which has a temporary license plate, was found abandoned the next day, police said. "This person passed a cyclist and then drove off the road intentionally onto the shoulder and into two other cyclists and possibly accelerated while doing that," said Jenny Fulton, director of public affairs at the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, according to CBS Denver.

Mark Meuser is a native Californian with a proven record of fighting for your constitutional rights.From a young age, Mark was an entrepreneur. At age 12, he picked cherries in the morning and then operated a street-side cherry stand in the afternoon. He also worked hard at caring for orphaned animals, often bottle-feeding sheep, pigs, and cows.By age 15, he was in a management position at a local restaurant. By age 21, he purchased his own pizza restaurant. While his restaurant business was thriving, Meuser started studying law. A few years later, he graduated with honors from Oak Brook College of Law. Meuser's unique training has taught him how to listen to people, formulate creative alternatives, and achieve workable solutions to real problems.As an attorney, Meuser secured an important victory for disabled Americans against United Airlines. In Gilstrap v. United Airlines, Meuser represented a disabled American injured by United when it failed to follow applicable federal law in how it handled her travel. The 9th Circuit agreed with Meuser that federal law permitted disabled Americans to sue airlines if those airlines failed to care for passengers as the law provided.In 2017, Meuser joined the Dhillon Law Group where he has focused on Election, Political, and Constitutional Law. At Dhillon Law Group, he has had the privilege of protecting critical First Amendment rights, for example, by defending Troy Worden from a frivolous lawsuit brought against him by Yvette Felarca, a national organizer for the organization “By Any Means Necessary,” one of Antifa's front groups.Meuser was also involved in a lawsuit against Governor Gavin Newsom when California tried to remove President Trump's name from the primary ballot by unconstitutionally changing the qualifications to run for President. Over the last year, Meuser has been involved in 22 lawsuits brought against Newsom for his unconstitutional usurpation of power as a result of COVID-19.In his free time, Meuser loves being outdoors, enjoying California's natural beauty. Whether he is hiking, bike riding, sailing, scuba diving, or snow skiing, Meuser is always quick to enjoy the diversity this state has to offer. Meuser's favorite bike ride was a five-day trip riding down the Pacific Coast Highway from San Francisco to Orange County.When Meuser was young, he saw a Saturday afternoon sports special covering an Ironman. Impressed by the athletes who competed in it, in 2014 Meuser registered to compete in his first Ironman and was fully prepared to do the 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride, and marathon run. However, the event was canceled at the last minute due to the local forest fires.As Meuser rode his bike back to his car, he was in a devastating bicycle accident. Not to be deterred from his vision of completing an Ironman, Meuser registered for the same event a year later, only to run into unplanned difficulties. The third time is the charm, as three months later, he tried again, finishing the Ironman Cozumel in 12 hours and 45 minutes. In 2021, Meuser finished his second full Ironman at Ironman Coeur d'Alene. In 2020, Meuser was ranked by Ironman as the third best male in his age group (45-49) in the United States for the half-Ironman distance (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run).Meuser is a prolific reader, on average reading one book a week. Most of the books he has read are on the topics of American history and biography. Meuser also has a large collection of American political biographies, United States and California State Histories that were published over 100 years ago.
On this week's show an old friend returns. I say old in two ways. Firstly I have known him a long time and secondly, he's 74. Don't let that fool you. Simon Butterworth is one of the fittest men I know. In fact, he's probably fitter than most 40-year-olds. He's certainly fitter than me. When I competed at the Ironman World Championships in 2017 Simon passed me at the 12-mile mark on the run, and he went on to win the 70-74 age group and become a world champion. He was 70 at the time, I was 53! Recently, Simon won his age group at Ironman Coeur d'Alene and qualified once again to race in Kona. Sadly with the race being cancelled for 2021 (it may still happen in February 2022) he won't get the chance to race this year. I love catching up with Simon, his enthusiasm is infectious and inspiring. I hope you are equally inspired. In this conversation, I really wanted to take a deep dive into how Simon maintains both his desire to race and his health and fitness, so we cover: His best running partner - Rita the dog Changing his swim technique……. at 74! Training for Ironman and managing a heart condition. Weekly training volume in the offseason, and when preparing for a race Daily recovery technique How his training approach has changed with age The run/walk strategy Nutritional approaches in training and racing If you're interested in following Simon on social media, you can find him here on Facebook Here are links to some of the other topics we also chatted about in the podcast: https://youtu.be/Xnsii2H-HxM Bobby McGee running coach Bobby McGee running mechanics D3 Multisport Forks over knives documentary Compex Sport Elite - muscle stimulator for muscle restoration Hyperice Theragun Feedzone portables - cook book with Alan Lim and Biju Thomas Dates with peanut Butter recipe Denver Omelette recipe - rice cakes recipe Jeff Galloway run/walk protocol Mid foot cleat position for cycling shoes Take a 30 day trial in my SWAT Inner Circle for just £1.

In this podcast he replays a conversation with USA Triathlon CEO Rocky Harris who reveals some health issues he has overcome and warns triathletes to know your health history and get check ups. The overall message it seems is that simply being fit doesn't mean you are healthy. That fitness does not overcome something like heart disease. Dr. Sankoff brings in his colleague Dr. Matt Holland, a cardiology specialist at Denver Health. They discuss some very specific factors about things like what causes heart attacks versus cardiac arrest. What really is the “widow” maker and how so many different things can cause a multitude of outcomes. But the conversation is also re-assuring in terms of how most all of us can avoid these things and how rare it really is for someone like Tim O'Donnell to have experienced this.

Cardiac Calcium Scoring (Heart Scan) is a medical scan of coronary calcium The coronary arteries are the vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart. Plaque — made of fat, calcium and other substances — can build up and narrow or close the arteries. To detect this build-up, your physician may order cardiac calcium scoring — a test that is also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring, a heart scan or calcium score. This non-invasive CT scan (computed tomography) of the heart calculates your risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) by measuring the amount of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries. Plaque or calcium build-up in the coronary arteries causes heart disease or can lead to a heart attack. The coronary calcium scan is a better predictor of coronary events than cholesterol screening or other risk factor assessments. About Your CAC Score A calcium score (sometimes called an Agatston score) is calculated based on the amount of plaque observed in the CT scan. It may be converted to a percentile rank based on your age and gender. The results from your cardiac scoring will be sent to your doctor. Mine was a score of 26 and the 4th percentile of my age peers. Your likelihood of having heart disease or a heart attack correlates with your calcium scoring. The lower your calcium score and percentile rank, the less likely you are to have a cardiac event compared to other men or women your age. Calcium Score Results The purpose of the test is to understand your risk of heart attack or disease, taking preventive or corrective measures based on the results. If you have any plaque present (a score greater than 0), your doctor may make recommendations for lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, eating better and exercising more. The higher your score the more treatment your doctor may recommend. If you have a high score, you can make an appointment with one of our coronary artery disease specialists. Zero: No plaque. Your risk of heart attack is low. 1 - 10: Small amount of plaque. You have less than a 10 percent chance of having heart disease, and your risk of heart attack is low. 11-100: Some plaque. You have mild heart disease and a moderate chance of heart attack. Your doctor may recommend other treatment in addition to lifestyle changes. 101 - 400: Moderate amount of plaque. You have heart disease and plaque may be blocking an artery. Your chance of having a heart attack is moderate to high. Your health professional may want more tests and may start treatment. Over 400: Large amount of plaque. You have more than a 90 percent chance that plaque is blocking one of your arteries. Your chance of heart attack is high. Your health professional will want more tests and will start treatment. Our News is sponsored by Buddy Insurance. It's big time training and racing season.

Yes we have Kona and the IRONMAN World Championships but that is about individuals, today was about the teams and the sport and profession of triathlon. The Collins Cup was designed to mirror golf's popular Ryder Cup pitting three teams of 12 athletes (6 men, 6 women) against each other. One team from Europe, the United States and Internationals. The goal, to make professional triathlon a better spectator sport thus attracting more money to make the profession more lucrative and sustainable. Will it work? Did it work? It's too early to say but nobody predicted the wild popularity of the Super Bowl. Triathlon will never be that popular but lets see what happens. The Professional Triathlon Organisation orchestrated this “made for TV event”. Viewers watched 12 matches with one competitor from each team racing. Each match started 10 minutes apart. The entire race lasted about 5 hours. Cameras were all over the course capturing the 36 athletes racing in their own three person race. It was fun to watch and the coverage was good as was the announcing. It was especially fun to have Tour de France commentator Phil Liggett behind the mic. His voice just adds a tone of familiarity and importance. IRONMAN 70.3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IRONMAN® 70.3® World Championship presented by the Utah Sports Commission. Among them will be over 100 of the world's top professional triathletes who will battle for a piece of the $350,000 USD total professional prize purse and the title of IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion. Since the first IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship was held in 2006 the women's race has seen 10 different champions from five different countries. Swiss Daniela Ryf has won an event-best five times, and is coming off an undefeated season, including a win in St. George at the IRONMAN 70.3 North American Championship earlier this year. Together with Mirinda Carfrae (AUS) and Leanda Cave (GBR), Ryf also holds the distinction of having won both the IRONMAN World Championship® and the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship. Aiming to dethrone Ryf will be a stellar group of professional female triathletes, including Lucy Charles-Barclay (GBR), who is coming off a recent win at 2021 IRONMAN 70.3 European Championship Elsinore. Charles-Barclay edged out Holly Lawrence (GBR) in that event, who as the 2016 IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion and multiple-time IRONMAN 70.3 winner will also be aiming for the top podium spot in St. George. Additional global competition will come from Paula Findlay (CAN), Taylor Knibb (USA), Kat Matthews (GBR), Skye Moench (USA), Emma Pallant-Browne (GBR), and Ellie Salthouse (AUS), each of whom continue to impress on the IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 circuits. On the men's side, a star-studded field of professional talent will come together aiming to create history in St. George. With no clear frontrunner, a few of the dominant competitors that could take a shot for a podium spot include the defending IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion from 2019 in Nice, France, Gustav Iden (NOR); Kristian Blummenfelt (NOR), who has momentum coming into St. George following his recent Tokyo 2020 Olympic Triathlon win; and Lionel Sanders (CAN), who won the IRONMAN 70.3 North American Championship in St. George earlier this year and has over 20 IRONMAN 70.3 wins to his name. Also in contention are Alistair Brownlee (GBR), the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Triathlon Gold Medalist as well as Javier Gomez (ESP), the 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion and 2018 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship third place podium finisher. Finally, American's Ben Kanute (USA) and Sam Long (USA) look to claim home nation victories. Kanute has multiple IRONMAN 70.3 wins and podium finishes in recent years and a second-place finish at the 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship, the last time the event was held on US soil. Sam Long comes in on the top of his game having won the 2021 IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene triathlon and the 2021 IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder triathlon. What's New in the 303: New Dura Ace? Gravel Rules My Experience With TriDot What is TriDot? It's a training platform, but its pretty sophisticated. It takes your race goals, your training data, puts threshold test on your training calendar, takes those threshold test results and uses AI to automatically adjusts your training plan and workouts. You can also see your Threshold Test history and drill into the details. It tracks your Fitness, Stress and Readiness on a graph. TriDot also has an integrated App called RaceX. Within RaceX, you can pick your "A" and "B" races (Ironman and Challenge branded). You can browse race routes for any of the races in the database and look at the gps route, elevation and distance. You can also see your Threshold Test history and drill into the details. It tracks your Fitness, Stress and Readiness on a graph. Within Diagnostics there's a feature called Phyiogenomics. If you've used DNA-based ancestry services like Ancestry.com or 23 and Me, there is a downloadable text file that has your genome that can be used for things like nutrigenomics (using your DNA or genome data to understand if you have genetic markers for celiac disease or allergies), or pharma genomics (using genome data to treat/prevent disease. We have a mutual friend who learned she had DNA markers putting her at likely risk for breast cancer. TriDot has a feature called PhysiogenomiX. It uses your DNA (genome data) to tailor the training plan and workouts to your genetic profile. I uploaded my 23 and Me genome text file to TriDot. Within a few seconds TriDot gave me an analysis that includes categorical summary and detailed results from specific genes related to physical training. These genes shown (and others) are used to enhance your training optimization. The categories: Training Intensity Response is a relative measure of how you respond to high-intensity versus low-intensity training. Based on your genetic variations, you are predisposed to have a greater response to either high or low-intensity training. Aerobic Potential is a measure of your potential for developing a high aerobic capacity or high oxygen utilization (VO2max). This is not a measure of your current aerobic capacity. Rather, it is a measure of your aerobic trainability--your potential for improvement with proper training. Recovery Rate is a measure of your genetic ability to recover from exercise-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. This includes the level of stress and inflammation produced and the rate at which it is cleared. Injury Predisposition is a measure of how genetically prone you are to incurring soft tissue (tendon and ligament) injuries from training. Lauren has also done it and we compared our results. We took the very first category of Training Intensity Response. At the top level we were both categorized as 40% responsive to Power vs 60% responsive to Endurance. When you drill into the details, each Gene, the Result, Effect and a summary. At the gene level we had about a half dozen genes that were different. In the first gene, Lauren had a piece of DNA inserted and I had both of them deleted. ACE: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme I have both deleted (DD) so I tend to be respond better to power based training. Lauren tends to respond well to a mixture of power and endurance. VEGFA: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Tends to be highly responsive to endurance training with good muscle efficiency and VO2max. Tends to adjust well to altitude training. Var-allele carriers produce a greater amount of VEGF. IMPORTANT TO KNOW BEFORE DIGGING INTO YOUR GENETICS Your genetic makeup is only part of the equation. Genetics alone is insufficient to predict or identify talent. Genetics can't (shouldn't) be used to set or change your goals; rather, to help you reach your goals most effectively.

Cardiac Calcium Scoring (Heart Scan) is a medical scan of coronary calcium The coronary arteries are the vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart. Plaque — made of fat, calcium and other substances — can build up and narrow or close the arteries. To detect this build-up, your physician may order cardiac calcium scoring — a test that is also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring, a heart scan or calcium score. This non-invasive CT scan (computed tomography) of the heart calculates your risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) by measuring the amount of calcified plaque in the coronary arteries. Plaque or calcium build-up in the coronary arteries causes heart disease or can lead to a heart attack. The coronary calcium scan is a better predictor of coronary events than cholesterol screening or other risk factor assessments. About Your CAC Score A calcium score (sometimes called an Agatston score) is calculated based on the amount of plaque observed in the CT scan. It may be converted to a percentile rank based on your age and gender. The results from your cardiac scoring will be sent to your doctor. Mine was a score of 26 and the 4th percentile of my age peers. Your likelihood of having heart disease or a heart attack correlates with your calcium scoring. The lower your calcium score and percentile rank, the less likely you are to have a cardiac event compared to other men or women your age. Calcium Score Results The purpose of the test is to understand your risk of heart attack or disease, taking preventive or corrective measures based on the results. If you have any plaque present (a score greater than 0), your doctor may make recommendations for lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, eating better and exercising more. The higher your score the more treatment your doctor may recommend. If you have a high score, you can make an appointment with one of our coronary artery disease specialists. Zero: No plaque. Your risk of heart attack is low. 1 - 10: Small amount of plaque. You have less than a 10 percent chance of having heart disease, and your risk of heart attack is low. 11-100: Some plaque. You have mild heart disease and a moderate chance of heart attack. Your doctor may recommend other treatment in addition to lifestyle changes. 101 - 400: Moderate amount of plaque. You have heart disease and plaque may be blocking an artery. Your chance of having a heart attack is moderate to high. Your health professional may want more tests and may start treatment. Over 400: Large amount of plaque. You have more than a 90 percent chance that plaque is blocking one of your arteries. Your chance of heart attack is high. Your health professional will want more tests and will start treatment. Our News is sponsored by Buddy Insurance. It's big time training and racing season.

Yes we have Kona and the IRONMAN World Championships but that is about individuals, today was about the teams and the sport and profession of triathlon. The Collins Cup was designed to mirror golf's popular Ryder Cup pitting three teams of 12 athletes (6 men, 6 women) against each other. One team from Europe, the United States and Internationals. The goal, to make professional triathlon a better spectator sport thus attracting more money to make the profession more lucrative and sustainable. Will it work? Did it work? It's too early to say but nobody predicted the wild popularity of the Super Bowl. Triathlon will never be that popular but lets see what happens. The Professional Triathlon Organisation orchestrated this “made for TV event”. Viewers watched 12 matches with one competitor from each team racing. Each match started 10 minutes apart. The entire race lasted about 5 hours. Cameras were all over the course capturing the 36 athletes racing in their own three person race. It was fun to watch and the coverage was good as was the announcing. It was especially fun to have Tour de France commentator Phil Liggett behind the mic. His voice just adds a tone of familiarity and importance. IRONMAN 70.3 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IRONMAN® 70.3® World Championship presented by the Utah Sports Commission. Among them will be over 100 of the world's top professional triathletes who will battle for a piece of the $350,000 USD total professional prize purse and the title of IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion. Since the first IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship was held in 2006 the women's race has seen 10 different champions from five different countries. Swiss Daniela Ryf has won an event-best five times, and is coming off an undefeated season, including a win in St. George at the IRONMAN 70.3 North American Championship earlier this year. Together with Mirinda Carfrae (AUS) and Leanda Cave (GBR), Ryf also holds the distinction of having won both the IRONMAN World Championship® and the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship. Aiming to dethrone Ryf will be a stellar group of professional female triathletes, including Lucy Charles-Barclay (GBR), who is coming off a recent win at 2021 IRONMAN 70.3 European Championship Elsinore. Charles-Barclay edged out Holly Lawrence (GBR) in that event, who as the 2016 IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion and multiple-time IRONMAN 70.3 winner will also be aiming for the top podium spot in St. George. Additional global competition will come from Paula Findlay (CAN), Taylor Knibb (USA), Kat Matthews (GBR), Skye Moench (USA), Emma Pallant-Browne (GBR), and Ellie Salthouse (AUS), each of whom continue to impress on the IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 circuits. On the men's side, a star-studded field of professional talent will come together aiming to create history in St. George. With no clear frontrunner, a few of the dominant competitors that could take a shot for a podium spot include the defending IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion from 2019 in Nice, France, Gustav Iden (NOR); Kristian Blummenfelt (NOR), who has momentum coming into St. George following his recent Tokyo 2020 Olympic Triathlon win; and Lionel Sanders (CAN), who won the IRONMAN 70.3 North American Championship in St. George earlier this year and has over 20 IRONMAN 70.3 wins to his name. Also in contention are Alistair Brownlee (GBR), the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Triathlon Gold Medalist as well as Javier Gomez (ESP), the 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 World Champion and 2018 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship third place podium finisher. Finally, American's Ben Kanute (USA) and Sam Long (USA) look to claim home nation victories. Kanute has multiple IRONMAN 70.3 wins and podium finishes in recent years and a second-place finish at the 2017 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship, the last time the event was held on US soil. Sam Long comes in on the top of his game having won the 2021 IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene triathlon and the 2021 IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder triathlon. What's New in the 303: New Dura Ace? Gravel Rules My Experience With TriDot What is TriDot? It's a training platform, but its pretty sophisticated. It takes your race goals, your training data, puts threshold test on your training calendar, takes those threshold test results and uses AI to automatically adjusts your training plan and workouts. You can also see your Threshold Test history and drill into the details. It tracks your Fitness, Stress and Readiness on a graph. TriDot also has an integrated App called RaceX. Within RaceX, you can pick your "A" and "B" races (Ironman and Challenge branded). You can browse race routes for any of the races in the database and look at the gps route, elevation and distance. You can also see your Threshold Test history and drill into the details. It tracks your Fitness, Stress and Readiness on a graph. Within Diagnostics there's a feature called Phyiogenomics. If you've used DNA-based ancestry services like Ancestry.com or 23 and Me, there is a downloadable text file that has your genome that can be used for things like nutrigenomics (using your DNA or genome data to understand if you have genetic markers for celiac disease or allergies), or pharma genomics (using genome data to treat/prevent disease. We have a mutual friend who learned she had DNA markers putting her at likely risk for breast cancer. TriDot has a feature called PhysiogenomiX. It uses your DNA (genome data) to tailor the training plan and workouts to your genetic profile. I uploaded my 23 and Me genome text file to TriDot. Within a few seconds TriDot gave me an analysis that includes categorical summary and detailed results from specific genes related to physical training. These genes shown (and others) are used to enhance your training optimization. The categories: Training Intensity Response is a relative measure of how you respond to high-intensity versus low-intensity training. Based on your genetic variations, you are predisposed to have a greater response to either high or low-intensity training. Aerobic Potential is a measure of your potential for developing a high aerobic capacity or high oxygen utilization (VO2max). This is not a measure of your current aerobic capacity. Rather, it is a measure of your aerobic trainability--your potential for improvement with proper training. Recovery Rate is a measure of your genetic ability to recover from exercise-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. This includes the level of stress and inflammation produced and the rate at which it is cleared. Injury Predisposition is a measure of how genetically prone you are to incurring soft tissue (tendon and ligament) injuries from training. Lauren has also done it and we compared our results. We took the very first category of Training Intensity Response. At the top level we were both categorized as 40% responsive to Power vs 60% responsive to Endurance. When you drill into the details, each Gene, the Result, Effect and a summary. At the gene level we had about a half dozen genes that were different. In the first gene, Lauren had a piece of DNA inserted and I had both of them deleted. ACE: Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme I have both deleted (DD) so I tend to be respond better to power based training. Lauren tends to respond well to a mixture of power and endurance. VEGFA: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Tends to be highly responsive to endurance training with good muscle efficiency and VO2max. Tends to adjust well to altitude training. Var-allele carriers produce a greater amount of VEGF. IMPORTANT TO KNOW BEFORE DIGGING INTO YOUR GENETICS Your genetic makeup is only part of the equation. Genetics alone is insufficient to predict or identify talent. Genetics can't (shouldn't) be used to set or change your goals; rather, to help you reach your goals most effectively.

Fenella says she is just a big kid at heart and loves what she does. With the biggest smile on her face she finished Challenge Daytona in 7th position last year before going on to claim a silver medal at IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene in June of this year stamping her ticket to Kona finishing in 8:59:49, a sub 9 debut IRONMAN. She has had her fair share of injuries over the years but through her infectious positivity, commitment to her craft and her patience she has bounced back to deliver some performances she can be very proud of including her win at IRONMAN 70.3 Barcelona just one week after a bike crash in France which resulted in a DNF and stitches. With an abundance of drive and determination coupled with natural talent and a thirst for success, the quietly spoken athlete lets her ability and performances do the talking. Still in her twenties, on the cusp of a new decade, Fenella has lots more fun to have in the sport of triathlon and there are plenty of podiums and medals in her future.
Coach Patrick interviews long-time teammate, Nam Lam, on his first Kona Qualification at Ironman Coeur d'Alene. Conditions were brutally hot, but Nam used the fitness and confidence he built racing at IM Tulsa earlier in the year to run down the competition. Nam shares the challenges and strategies he used to stay on track over the pandemic. Tune in to laugh and be inspired!
In this episode of The Active Texan we chat with Ironman Ted Boone and his wife Marisa about their path to Ironman and how important it is to have a community to helps us reach our goals! We talk about the steady pace of his training plan for Ironman Coeur d'Alene 2021 and the spouse perspective on setting and working toward big fitness goals. Ted is the president of the BCS Triclub and also a published author. This awesome duo are great storytellers and are inspiring to all that with small, steady growth you can reach big goals!
My guest today on the Mile after Mile Podcast is professional triathlete Rach McBride. In addition to being a professional triathlete Rach has a background in science - specifically genetics. Rach and I talk about their academic pursuits and choosing to go all in as a professional triathlete. Then we go deep into how Rach identifies. Rach is non-binary and uses the pronouns they/them. We talk about logistically how this impacts registering, participating in sport today. Rach (they/them) teaches Amy (she/her) a little bit of the history of gender classification in sport. We also try to play the imagination game and think about how sport might look in the future. We talk about the power of names and naming things. We talk about the influence of money and scholarships in conversations on how classifications are made in sport. We talk about how language is changing quickly and how youngsters may have an easier time because don't need to unlearn old habits. We recorded this episode before Rach raced Ironman Coeur d'Alene. Idaho experienced a heat wave for the race. You can listen to what Rach hoped would happen with the weather … which didn't happen. Thank you Rach for being a guest on the Mile after Mile Podcast.

Racing an Ironman is always tough but add 30 degrees to the normal high and it can make it impossible. As I kept seeing her post about her training and running into her at the pool a few times I was excited to interview Nicole after Ironman Coeur d'alene because I wanted to hear about all the ups and downs mentally and physically of the day. It's always exciting to hear how a competitor felt when they finish a race. However, the interview is quite different because it is her first ever DNF. It was an unbearable day with 130+ degrees coming off the pavement during the ride and her body told her she had enough. Nearly 30% of the field didn't finish! As bad as I feel for her I am so happy she came on because there was so much to share about her day on the course. Believe me, Nicole is not done with Ironman yet!
Sarah and Matt are lucky enough to be joined by the the man himself, Lionel Sanders. Just a few days post a disappointing Ironman Coeur d'Alene, and a few days prior to leaving for the highly anticipated Tri Battle with Jan Frodeno, we get Lionel at his best; raw and unfiltered. We chat about what he's learned from his last race, how he plans to improve upon it, and we get the details behind his upcoming Tri Battle. This one is a must listen! Please be aware that there are some expletives in this episode, listener discretion is advised around children.
On this week's episode of the IronWomen Podcast, Alyssa and Haley catch up with professional triathlete Lenny Ramsey. Lenny also raced at Ironman Coeur d'Alene last weekend, and battled her way to an impressive 8th place finish despite feeling sick on the bike and run. She tells us about her heat management strategy for the race, and how she managed to keep herself mentally and physically in the race in tough conditions. Lenny also recently raced at Ironman Tulsa, but had to pull out of the run due to swim induced pulmonary edema (SIPE). We hear about her experience with SIPE and how she managed the conditions while racing in Coeur d'Alene. Lenny tells us about her foray into Zwift racing over the last year, and how that helped her stay prepped and motivated to get back to triathlon. She also fills us in on the action packed race schedule for the rest of the year, and why she loves living and training in Arkansas.

“When I was out there, baking along the lake where it was really hot, all I was really trying to do was just keep moving forward, and whatever that entailed. So I was just looking ahead to the next aid station—like, what can I do to keep moving forward? It really became that simple, which, for as busy as my brain can be sometimes with thinking, is surprising because I really didn't think much beyond that because I just knew how hot it was, and how else was I going to get to the finish line? I just have to move forward…It's not always—I think we forget this as competitive athletes that all have goals—but it's not always about the result too, it's just sometimes how you do the thing and get across the line. We always learn infinitely more from the struggles than we do from our successes.” We are back with a new episode of the podcast after a brief hiatus and my guest this week is a really special one: it's my favorite person in the entire world, my best friend and biggest supporter, my wife, Christine Gould. Christine has been one of my most requested guests since I started the show 3-1/2 years ago and you'll finally get to hear from her this week. Christine recently completed Ironman Coeur d'Alene in Idaho (it was her first swing at that distance in 14 years), and this was a good opportunity to debrief with her about that experience—why she signed up for the event, how it went, and what she learned from it—as well as to learn more about her and how she operates, us as a couple and how we operate, and a lot more.

Endurance News: Officials arrest woman who provoked stage 1 crash at Tour de France Police arrested the woman they say caused Tony Martin (Jumbo-Visma) to crash on stage 1 of the 2021 Tour de France, media reports said. The suspect, who held a sign in front of the peloton and provoked a high-speed crash that blocked the peloton, was taken into custody Wednesday in Landerneau, where stage 1 finished. “The woman has been formally identified and she was taken into custody a few minutes ago,” said Camille Miansoni, the state prosecutor for the city of Brest in Brittany. “A suspect is in custody.” The French gendarmerie in Finistère announced an investigation into the incident, citing “involuntary injuries with incapacity not exceeding three months by manifestly deliberate violation of an obligation of safety or prudence,” reports RTL. French officials made a public request for witnesses to come forward to provide information leading to the identification and arrest of the suspect. As a result of the crash, Jasha Sütterlin (Team DSM) was forced to abandon the stage. If found to be responsible for causing the crash — and subsequently all the dozens of riders who were involved in the crash, to come down — the spectator could face fines of €1,500, as well as additional penalties should Sütterlin decided to pursue further legal action. The case was of interest due to the high-profile incident in the opening stage of the Tour as well as the decision by authorities to pursue a fan, something that might be unprecedented in Tour history. While Martin is not actively serving as a law enforcement official, social media was quick to support the German time trial specialist, who is a German police officer, in holding the spectator accountable.

"Unfortunately, my dad couldn't come," said Long, of Boulder, Colo. "But I'm sure he's glued to his television somewhere watching. He told me before he left to go out and win it for him. He got me into this, not for the triathlon, but just to get outdoors." Likewise, Carrie Lester, 40, won the women's race in a record time of 8 hours, 54 minutes and 51 seconds. For Lester, who has now won eight Ironman triathlons, it was a bit of challenge just to get to the starting line. "I'm 40 and had a career-best year in 2019 before COVID hit," said the Australian-born Lester, who lives in San Diego. "I had good momentum going into 2020 and obviously things changed. I really kind of felt lost, and wondered if I wanted to continue. Each year, it gets harder and harder as you get older. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get to that level again. To be able to do, with the support of my husband, Scott, to be able to put out a performance like that, it was unbelievable." Winners of the men's and women's races each received $15,000, with $9,000 for second and $7,000 for third. Only the top 10 male and female finishers received money from the $100,000 purse. Long won in his previous appearance in Coeur d'Alene, finishing as the high amateur in 2015. "I definitely went a lot faster today," Long said. "I had the same process and mindset. I've just dedicated my life to this in the last six years. I really aligned my priorities, commitments and just focused on racing. I live with my parents in Colorado and it's really gotten me closer to home and the things that are most important to me." Temperatures reached 101 degrees on Sunday, with the temperature of the pavement measured at 133 degrees before the men's finish.

Goal: 5 Mistakes Download We've been using CBD for a long time now and I have to admit - we didn't always know what we were doing with it. It's easy to get confused when you don't know when, how much, or even why to take it. It wasn't until we found Venga CBD that it all really started to click. Venga CBD makes really powerful CBD, and they know that if you're using it wrong, you're just not going to get the full benefit. And that kind of defeats the purpose.

UCAN keeps blood sugar steady compared to the energy spikes and crashes of sugar-based products. Steady energy equals sustained performance! The next 6 weeks are going to be a big training and racing block. I just picked up a new tube of the tropical orange Energy powder, the same flavor in the hydration sodium formula and yes UCAN Edge. I used all three in my race this past weekend and it treated me great. I hit the run with plenty of hydration and slow release carbs on board. The only downside was that I so in the zone about the race that I completely forgot to take a picture of my transition with my UCAN. You put in the training, so don't let nutrition limit your performance. Use UCAN in your training and racing to fuel the healthy way, finish stronger and recover more quickly!

We know there's a lot of cities that have great cycling infrastructure with protected bike lanes lots of low stress places to ride. There are plenty of cities out there that don't have good cycling infrastructure and maybe you're looking for a way to improve riding in your city. I remember renting a road bike in Orlando and had a bugger of a time finding a safe place to ride. People for Bikes has recently released their ratings of cities throughout the US, Canada, Europe and Australia. The bottom of the barrel ranking is a 5 and the KOM has a rating of 83.

Endurance News: Officials arrest woman who provoked stage 1 crash at Tour de France Police arrested the woman they say caused Tony Martin (Jumbo-Visma) to crash on stage 1 of the 2021 Tour de France, media reports said. The suspect, who held a sign in front of the peloton and provoked a high-speed crash that blocked the peloton, was taken into custody Wednesday in Landerneau, where stage 1 finished. “The woman has been formally identified and she was taken into custody a few minutes ago,” said Camille Miansoni, the state prosecutor for the city of Brest in Brittany. “A suspect is in custody.” The French gendarmerie in Finistère announced an investigation into the incident, citing “involuntary injuries with incapacity not exceeding three months by manifestly deliberate violation of an obligation of safety or prudence,” reports RTL. French officials made a public request for witnesses to come forward to provide information leading to the identification and arrest of the suspect. As a result of the crash, Jasha Sütterlin (Team DSM) was forced to abandon the stage. If found to be responsible for causing the crash — and subsequently all the dozens of riders who were involved in the crash, to come down — the spectator could face fines of €1,500, as well as additional penalties should Sütterlin decided to pursue further legal action. The case was of interest due to the high-profile incident in the opening stage of the Tour as well as the decision by authorities to pursue a fan, something that might be unprecedented in Tour history. While Martin is not actively serving as a law enforcement official, social media was quick to support the German time trial specialist, who is a German police officer, in holding the spectator accountable. Tour De France https://www.letour.fr/en/rankings https://youtu.be/fi7rJfSrW58 What's New in the 303: About Lake to Lake and Bill's Chat with Rocky Harris Boulder Sunrise Race Report Chat with DA about Bike Law Julie Coleman Ironman Boulder 70.3 Boulder Pro Sam Long wins in Coeur d'Alene Sam Long, 25, cruised to his first Ironman Coeur d'Alene men's title, finishing in 8 hours, 7 minutes and 40 seconds, a new course record for the full 140.3-mile race, which was held annually in Coeur d'Alene starting in 2003, but the full Ironman returned to the Lake City for the first time since 2017. "Unfortunately, my dad couldn't come," said Long, of Boulder, Colo. "But I'm sure he's glued to his television somewhere watching. He told me before he left to go out and win it for him. He got me into this, not for the triathlon, but just to get outdoors." Likewise, Carrie Lester, 40, won the women's race in a record time of 8 hours, 54 minutes and 51 seconds. For Lester, who has now won eight Ironman triathlons, it was a bit of challenge just to get to the starting line. "I'm 40 and had a career-best year in 2019 before COVID hit," said the Australian-born Lester, who lives in San Diego. "I had good momentum going into 2020 and obviously things changed. I really kind of felt lost, and wondered if I wanted to continue. Each year, it gets harder and harder as you get older. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get to that level again. To be able to do, with the support of my husband, Scott, to be able to put out a performance like that, it was unbelievable." Winners of the men's and women's races each received $15,000, with $9,000 for second and $7,000 for third. Only the top 10 male and female finishers received money from the $100,000 purse. Long won in his previous appearance in Coeur d'Alene, finishing as the high amateur in 2015. "I definitely went a lot faster today," Long said. "I had the same process and mindset. I've just dedicated my life to this in the last six years. I really aligned my priorities, commitments and just focused on racing. I live with my parents in Colorado and it's really gotten me closer to home and the things that are most important to me." Temperatures reached 101 degrees on Sunday, with the temperature of the pavement measured at 133 degrees before the men's finish.

I mix a bottle of UCAN the night before my morning workouts and then drink the bottle on the way to the pool or when warming up on the trainer. After that, I have the hydration formula for the remainder of the workout that has no fuel but has sodium. Both products taste great and I'm really like the blender bottle.

A couple of months ago some friends encouraged me to try our first draft-legal triathlon. I’ve been doing non-draft triathlons for nearly 15 years, and thought it was time to try something new. “First” experiences at my age are rare! I tapped into a rush of adrenaline yesterday that almost made vomit at the finish line! That’s cool!! Not the vomit part, but the tapping into that much human drive. I want more of it and I’ll be back for it next year! From “Perhaps this is a sign,” Teri Ward on winning another 303 contest–with Rinny surprise Of all times, during the week of the 2019 IRONMAN World Championships, Teri lost her beloved husband Chuck, after a battle with cancer. 2019 has been a tough year for Teri. She also attempted IRONMAN Boulder in June and was not able to finish. With hopes of qualifying for Kona, her summer turned upside down with the disappointing race, but much more importantly, with a turn for the worse as Chuck’s battle with melanoma cancer worsened. When told of winning Teri said, “A couple of friends pointed out that I had won a Kona bag. What a surprise! You see, I had DNF’d at IRONMAN Boulder this year, missing a Kona slot, then my husband’s fight against cancer took a turn for the worst in August and my motivation to train was very limited and my darling husband passed the week of Kona and I haven’t been sure if I would ever train again. Perhaps this is a sign that I am meant to use his determination and strength as motivation to keep up my Kona quest.” From Endurance News: Races this weekend include Ironman Arizona and Ironman Cozumel There are tons of Coloradans racing in Arizona this Sunday. I ran into Melanie Mitchell from Poppy Sports in the village. She's here with Lori Pacheco and Maureen Kennedy. We also know TO is racing in Cozumel.

Kevin states, "It is a pretty scary life change; I think to myself, ‘what I am getting myself into??’ probably every day, but for the most part I am enjoying the process and it’s been awesome to see the slow but sure progression."

"You are an IRONMAN!" Anyone who has dreamed of that finish line has also dreamed of those words being shouted at their finish---and if you are very lucky, by the man himself, Mike Reilly. Mike "called" Meredith into the finish at IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene in 2013, and Lake Placid in 2015 (receiving a smooch on the cheek in 2015 from her!). Enjoy this candid and fun interview with @IronmanVoice, THE Mike Reilly, where we get the scoop: Where did "You are an Ironman" start? How long has he been announcing races? What is Mike's most memorable "call in"? How does he stay so positive? Would he tell someone they "should" do an IRONMAN? What's a day in the life of an IRONMAN day? What does Mike do outside of triathlon? What does his grandson call him? How does he (or does he) pick which races he attends? What races for 2018?

Before heading to LinkedIn, where she oversees digital and social media and paid media strategy for the company’s brand campaigns, Page worked at Nike, where she was part of the Access to Sport group, working on the Designed to Move initiative. Page is also a mom-to-be: She has a baby boy on the way who is expected to make his debut this summer. On this episode, Page and I talk about how she’s feeling heading into her third trimester, how her pregnancy has been going, and why she thinks her baby is going to be “a little Tyrannosaurus rex.” She also gets professional and shares the one question you should ask potential employers, her best advice for women who want to work in the tech industry or in Silicon Valley, and why you should always send business-related emails on your phone. Plus, we get into our takes on feminism and the piece of advice her dad shared years ago that ended up changing my life.

We all go through phases in our life when it seems the world is against us. Curveballs, blocks and signs of the opposite kind that we think we deserve just keep coming at us. What many of us forget during these times is that we have a choice to cry poor me or have faith that it is all there to prepare us for something greater. A belief that there are no mistakes and a realization that life is a series of waves. Some carry us gently to shore while others pummel us before we can even catch a breath of air. We all have times in our lives when we feel like defensive linemen and today’s guest is no exception. Pro-triathlete Maggie Rusch knows how to stand strong in the face of adversity and keep her head held high when the punches just keep coming. These are just some of the attributes that makes Maggie one of the toughest competitors in the field. But she is tough not just because she can suffer, she is resilient and grounded enough to see that the tough times are blessings in disguise. Her challenges have led to deep introspection that has allowed her to pursue what she is passionate about in life. Triathlon. A competitive volleyball player through high school and college, Maggie has lived the life of an athlete from a young age. She shares her what if story with us regarding her chance at triathlon, before she even started playing volleyball, only to find her multi-sport love once again after college. She was quickly reminded that she was pretty good at this sport. At her first Ironman in 2013 she place 4th overall and qualified for the Ironman World Championship where suffered a serious case of heat stroke and, because her body temperature surpassed 108 degrees, she had a very small chance of survival. Thankfully Maggie was able to recover and she went on to win Ironman Coeur d’Alene in 2014 then returned to Kona for her redemption race. Maggie’s story is one of overcoming adversity and getting comfortable with the uncomfortable. As a full-time consultant and professional triathlete with a bumpy track record Maggie has recently recommitted herself to her health. Better recovery, nutrition and meditation are just a few of the things that she is incorporating into her training regime. Maggie shares how just five minutes a day is already making a difference in her life. We talk about triathlon in Asheville and she shares insight into her nutrition and her tools to stay focused and away from the noise in her head. Maggie is someone who cannot give up but she is also someone who is willing to fail. She puts it all out there, something that many are too scared to do. In 2014, in an attempt to avoid another heat stroke experience, Maggie packed up and headed to Norway for the Norseman Extreme triathlon. She describes Norseman as the hardest race she’s ever done and with a 2nd place finish Maggie Rusch, once again, shows the world that she is tough as nails. Beyond the races, the training and her full-time career Maggie seeks something deeper, she is looking for more calm in her life. The idyllic balance to her go, go, go tendencies and quite possibly one of her most challenging goals. She knows that it is only herself that can bring this calm into view and like everything else Maggie takes on, we know she won’t give up until she finds it. Maggie is as sweet as she is badass, we really enjoyed our time with her during our stay in Asheville and hope you enjoy the show.
