In this episode:A widely read and much discussed media article out of Germany quoted researchers who surveyed athletes at the 2024 Challenge Roth on the use of performance enhancing drugs among age group triathletes. The results were somewhat disheartening. Around 10% admitted to using agents that would enhance performance and almost none had any qualms about it. What are these agents? What are the risks of using them? Should we care? The entire episode will be dedicated to try to answer these questions with the help of guests Jim Vance and Matt sharpe.
My guest today is Jim Vance There are few individuals in the world with the teaching background, elite athlete experience, and coaching experience with elites, amateurs and juniors, as well as knowledge of training and a passion and understanding of tech. Jim has been the coach to US pro triathlete Ben Kanute for 8 years. He has also written 2 triathlon books (details of which you can find in the show notes) and is a consultant to several tech companies in the Multisport space including 80/20 Endurance and Velocity, a software programme for cycle coaching. Jim and I have a great chat about the rapid advancements in technology and their impact on triathlon coaching. We get into the weeds on the physical toll of triathlon racing for pro athletes, given the ever increasing intensity of the races especially when racing in extreme heat. Finally, and I think most importantly for you, the listener, we discussed the significance of personal harmony and relationships in achieving optimal athletic performance, and the crucial role of mental and physical preparation in triathlon. Topics include: 18:14 Athletes need to learn to trust themselves - "I care more about athlete mindset on the start line than I do about training." 28:25 On harmony in your relationships - "We've got to really enhance our world. That brings more stability to it, that reduces stress." 56:41 On how to get the best recovery and stress levels - "So what affects that recovery cycle? Home life, stress outside of it, nutrition, sleep, all those things probably come back again to relationships in your daily life." 1:17:35 On the power of showing vulnerability - "David Warden kept getting all these questions. And he kept saying, 'Well, I don't know the answer', and afterwards it became this crazy thing, where all these coaches just came up to him."

Who is Jim Vance? Jim Vance is a compassionate and experienced guide who has worked with countless men and women worldwide, helping them transform their lives, health, and relationships. He specializes in working with purpose-driven men who are proactive, self-motivated, and dedicated to personal growth. These men are on a quest to align with their authentic masculine identity, allowing them to make a positive impact in the world through their purpose and live in harmonious relationships. Drawing from a wealth of experience and witnessing various levels of identity shifts, Jim possesses the skills to serve individuals at different stages of consciousness. He deeply understands how to overcome unconscious barriers that hinder the alignment of one's identity with their soul's highest self. Jim acknowledges that his own personal journey, with its ups and downs, has shaped him and granted him the wisdom, growth, and embodiment required to impact his clients profoundly. Embarking on a Journey of Growth: Jim's personal journey can be summed up by the saying, "The journey of 1000 lifetimes begins with one step." With each step he has taken, Jim has evolved from a man living in misalignment and inauthenticity to a conscious individual who awakens in every moment, consciously steering his life toward his vision on a daily basis. Jim's upbringing in a "normal" and loving family provided a solid foundation. He cherished family connections, engaged in adventures, and experienced personal growth. His father, a philosophical blue-collar worker, constantly sought the meaning in life and imparted valuable lessons to Jim and his brothers. Meanwhile, his goal-oriented mother instilled in him a drive for excellence, no matter the endeavor. Confronting the Unhealed Wounds: It was only when Jim reached rock bottom, eyeing a second divorce, facing professional uncertainty, and battling self-destructive patterns, that he realized the pivotal role his own inner transformation played in manifesting the love and success he yearned for. In a dark night of the soul, alone in a parking lot, Jim experienced a profound realization: the fulfillment he sought originated from within, not outside of himself. Thus began his journey of self-healing, learning to love himself unconditionally, processing emotions at a deep level, embodying a healthy masculine frame, and leading his life from a place of self-acceptance and sufficiency. Over several years, Jim dedicated himself to this transformative process. He cultivated a fully aligned version of himself, now living the life of his dreams and experiencing the relationships he had always desired. It was during this transformative journey that Jim discovered his calling to support men facing life's challenges or seeking to elevate themselves toward their desired lives. Guiding Men Towards Greatness: Today, Jim Vance serves men with clarity, consistency, and alignment. He trusts in the person he has become and continues to evolve into. His mission is to inspire men to transcend mediocrity and realign themselves with their inherent greatness. Jim provides a supportive space for men to turn to when their lives seem to be falling apart or when they seek to take the next step toward the life they aspire to. Through his guidance and mentorship, Jim empowers men to step into their true potential, embrace their authentic identity, and lead fulfilling lives in alignment with their purpose. He believes that every man has the capacity to rise above societal conditioning and tap into their inner strength, wisdom, and compassion. Jim's commitment lies in facilitating this transformational journey for men, leading them toward lives filled with purpose, authenticity, and deep fulfillment.

In Episode 17 of Fitter & Faster, we explore all aspects of peaking and tapering to help you arrive at the start line of your next race in the best shape yet. Most coaches advocate trying to peak twice a year, but if you don't know how to nail your taper you risk reaching race day feeling flat and sluggish. Understanding the physiological and psychological aspects of peaking and tapering can help you avoid the common mistakes and pitfalls. In this show, we chat with coach Jim Vance, who talks about the many different ways he's helped his athletes find their best form and avoid "the abyss" that can come from getting your taper wrong. We also uncover the "secret sauce" that can truly help athletes hit their peak on race day—and it's not so much about physiology, rather psychology. On that theme, we also hear from Vanessa Foerster, a mental endurance coach who has helped many athletes work on their approach to race day, including their taper. She has some unique perspectives on how to handle it all, which includes writing letters to your future self. And, of course, it wouldn't be Fitter & Faster without our Gear Up section with our resident gear guru Chris Foster. We chat through the intricacies of heart rate variability, percussive devices, and plenty more.

This here episode marks the last episode of a very tumultuous year. At Least we gave you the super upbeat story of the Dozier School For Boys for your Christmas listening. This week we are going out with a bang! You may think you know the story, you probably know the names, you didn't know that Moody's wife is directly related to both families, and lastly you probably want us to get to the point. So here it is…. This week we celebrate the new year by talking about none other than the Hatfields and the McCoys...and the new years day massacre. The patriarchs of each family during the majority of the feud were William Anderson Hatfield and Randolph McCoy. Hatfield was born September 9, 1839, in western Virginia (now Logan, West Virginia), the son of Ephraim and Nancy (Vance) Hatfield. His nickname "Devil Anse" has a variety of supposed origins: it was given to him by his mother; by Randolph McCoy; earned from his bravery during battle in the American Civil War; or as contrast to his good-tempered cousin, Anderson "Preacher Anse" Hatfield.A Southern sympathizer, Hatfield enlisted in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War. He was commissioned a First Lieutenant of Cavalry in the Virginia State Line in 1862, a group made to protect the territory along the Kentucky-Virginia border where resident loyalties to the North and South were mixed. The Virginia State Line eventually disbanded in 1863 and Hatfield enlisted as a private in the newly formed 45th Battalion Virginia Infantry, before being appointed first lieutenant and later captain of Company B. His unit spent most of its time patrolling the border area against bushwhackers sympathetic to the Union as well as engaging in guerrilla warfare against Union soldiers. Devil Anse himself has been connected to battles and killings of several Union fighters, including trackers Ax and Fleming Hurley in 1863.Devil Anse and his uncle Jim Vance later formed a Confederate guerrilla fighting unit called the "Logan Wildcats." One of the group's victims was Union General Bill France; killed in revenge for losing one of their members to France's unit.[ In 1865, he was suspected of having been involved in the murder of his rival Asa Harmon McCoy, who had fought for the Union Army and was waylaid by The Wildcats on his return home. Hatfield had been home ill at the time of the killing, which was probably committed at the instigation of his uncle, Jim Vance. This may have sparked the beginning of the notorious feud between the two families that claimed many lives on both sides.Devil Anse was the patriarch leader during the Hatfield-McCoy feud. His family and Randolph McCoy's fought in one of the bloodiest and most well-known feuds in American history. He was instrumental during the execution of McCoy boys Tolbert, Pharmer and Bud, as well as being present during the Battle of Grapevine Creek before most of his sons and friends were arrested for the murder of the McCoys.Hatfield was baptized on September 23, 1911 in Island Creek by William Dyke "Uncle Dyke" Garrett and converted to Christianity (he had maintained a largely agnostic or anti-institutional view of religion prior to this conversion). He went on to found a Church of Christ congregation in West Virginia. He was an uncle of the eventual Governor of West Virginia, and United States Senator, Henry D. Hatfield. Randolph "Randall"(or sometimes Ol’ Ran’ll) McCoy grew up in the Tug River Valley, which marked the boundary between Kentucky and West Virginia. He was born on the Kentucky side of the valley, one of 13 children. There he learned to hunt and farm, two main ways people living in this part of Appalachia supported themselves. McCoy grew up in poverty. His father, Daniel, had little interest in work, so his mother, Margaret, had to struggle to care for, feed and clothe the family. In 1849, McCoy married his first cousin, Sarah "Sally" McCoy. Sally inherited land from her father a few years after they married. They settled on this 300-acre spread in Pike County, Kentucky, where they had 16 children together. During the Civil War, McCoy served as a soldier for the Confederacy. He may have even been a part of the same local militia as his later nemesis, William Anderson "Devil Anse" Hatfield. The Family trees of these men are huge. There are many descendants around to this day. This also made keeping track of some of the issues tricky. Lots of people involved. First cousin marriage. Romeo and juliet type relationships between the families...crazy shit. The Hatfield–McCoy feud, also described by journalists as the Hatfield–McCoy war, involved two rural American families of the West Virginia–Kentucky area along the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River in the years 1863–1891. The McCoy family lived mostly on the Kentucky side of the Tug Fork; the Hatfields lived mostly on the West Virginia side. The majority of the Hatfields, although living in Mingo County (then part of Logan County) fought for the Confederacy in the American Civil War; most McCoys also fought for the Confederates, with the exception of Asa Harmon McCoy, who fought for the Union. The Hatfields were more affluent than the McCoys and were well-connected politically. Anse's timbering operation was a source of wealth for his family, while the McCoys were more of a lower-middle-class family. Ole Ran'l owned a 300-acre farm. Both families had also been involved in the manufacturing and selling of illegal moonshine, a popular commodity at the time. The first event in the decades-long feud was the 1865 murder of Randolph’s brother, Asa Harmon McCoy, by the Logan Wildcats, a local militia group that counted Devil Anse and other Hatfields among its members. Many people—even members of his own family—regarded Asa Harmon, who had served in the Union Army during the American Civil War, as a traitor. At the time of his capture, he was recovering from a gunshot wound to the chest. During the early months of the Civil War, Asa joined a company of the Pike County Home Guards, under the command of Uriah Runyon, and it is thought he sustained the wound while serving in this unit. Asa's Company E was mustered out on December 24, 1864, in Ashland. He was killed near his home on January 7, 1865, just thirteen days after leaving the Union Army. A group of Confederate guerillas took credit for the killing and his wife's pension application states that he was "killed by Rebels". There are no existing records pertaining to his death and no warrants were issued in connection with the murder. McCoy family tradition points to James "Jim" Vance, an uncle of Anse and a member of a West Virginia Militia group, as the culprit. Relations between the two families continued to sour over the next decade before flaring again over a seemingly small matter: a dispute over a single hog. In 1878 Randolph McCoy accused Floyd Hatfield, a cousin of Devil Anse, of stealing one of his pigs, a valuable commodity in the poor region. Floyd Hatfields’s trial took place in McCoy territory but was presided over by a cousin of Devil Anse. It hinged on the testimony of star witness Bill Staton, a McCoy relative married to a Hatfield. Staton testified in Floyd Hatfield’s favor, and the McCoys were infuriated when Floyd was cleared of the charges against him. Two years later, Staton was violently killed in a fracas with Sam and Paris McCoy, nephews of Randolph. Sam stood trial for the murder but was acquitted for self-defense reasons. Within months of Staton’s murder, a heated affair of a different sort was set ablaze. At a local election day gathering in 1880, Johnse Hatfield, the 18-year-old son of Devil Anse, encountered Roseanna McCoy, Randolph’s daughter. According to accounts, Johnse and Roseanna hit it off, disappearing together for hours. Supposedly fearing retaliation from her family for mingling with the Hatfields, Roseanna stayed at the Hatfield residence for a period of time, drawing the ire of the McCoys. Although they certainly shared a romance, it rapidly became clear that Johnse was not about to settle down with Roseanna. Several months later he abandoned the pregnant Roseanna and quickly moved on. In May 1881 he married Nancy McCoy, Roseanna’s cousin. According to the romanticized legend, Roseanna was heartbroken by these events and never recovered emotionally. The real turning point in the feud, according to most historical accounts, occurred on another local election day in August 1882. Three of Randolph McCoy’s sons ended up in a violent dispute with two brothers of Devil Anse. The fight soon snowballed into chaos as one of the McCoy brothers stabbed Ellison Hatfield multiple times and then shot him in the back. Authorities soon apprehended the McCoys, but the Hatfields interceded, spiriting the men to Hatfield territory. After receiving word that Ellison had died, they bound the McCoys to some pawpaw bushes. Within minutes, they fired more than 50 shots, killing all three brothers. Though the Hatfields might have felt their revenge was warranted, the law felt otherwise, quickly returning indictments against 20 men, including Devil Anse and his sons. Despite the charges, the Hatfields eluded arrest, leaving the McCoys boiling with anger about the murders and outraged that the Hatfields walked free. Their cause was taken up by Perry Cline, an attorney who was married to Martha McCoy, the widow of Randolph’s brother Asa Harmon. Years earlier Cline had lost a lawsuit against Devil Anse over the deed for thousands of acres of land, and many historians believe this left him looking for his own form of revenge. Using his political connections, Cline had the charges against the Hatfields reinstated. He announced rewards for the arrest of the Hatfields, including Devil Anse. The media started to report on the feud in 1887. In their accounts, the Hatfields were often portrayed as violent backwoods hillbillies who roamed the mountains stirring up violence. The sensationalist coverage planted the seed for the rivalry to become cemented in the American imagination. What had been a local story was becoming a national legend. The Hatfields may or may not have been paying attention to these stories, but they were certainly paying attention to the bounty on their heads. In an effort to end the commotion once and for all, a group of the Hatfields and their supporters hatched a plan to attack Randolph McCoy and his family. This attack would become known as the New Year's Day Massacre. Ever on the offensive, the Hatfields staged a sneak attack on the McCoy homestad. On New Year's Day 1888, they set fire to the McCoy home in what was eventually dubbed the New Year's Night Massacre. According to some accounts, the fire was set while the family was still in the house, asleep, as a means of forcing Randolph McCoy to come outside where a Hatfield ambush awaited him. As the flames grew, the Hatfields opened fire on the house. McCoy did come out, but managed to escape into the woods along with some children, who suffered frostbite. Other members of the McCoy clan weren't so lucky. Two of his children were killed during the blaze, and his wife was beaten so badly she was permanently disabled. With his house burning, Randolph and his remaining family members were able to escape to the woods; his children, unprepared for the elements, suffered frostbite. The remaining McCoys moved to Pikeville to escape the West Virginia raiding parties. During the 1888 New Year's Night Massacre, the Hatfields set fire to the McCoy homestead in hopes of flushing the family out in the open. During the mayhem, Randolph McCoy's wife, Sarah, was so badly beaten her skull was crushed. His son Calvin and daughter Alifair were killed in the crossfire Sarah McCoy had never participated in the violence of the feud, so beating her almost to death served no purpose other than sending a message. And send a message it did – to the local authorities. Sarah McCoy's gruesome beating, and the murder of her children, brought about the murder trial that judicially ended the feud between the warring families. This incident led to the last great skirmish of the feud as tensions were at an all time high! After the murders and the burning of the house there was an outcry for the Hatfields to be brought to justice. This led to the battle of grapevine creek. On January 19 Devil Anse and a large party of his supporters faced off with Frank Phillips and his men in a large gun battle which entered local lore and the legend of the feud as the Battle of Grapevine Creek. Despite involving a large number of men, and despite being the single biggest engagement of the entire feud only two were killed in the battle, though a deputy who supported the Hatfields was executed by Phillips after the battle. Following the engagement Phillips withdrew to Kentucky, having succeeded in rounding up nine members of the Hatfield clan. Once there he learned that another Governor, E. Willis Wilson of West Virginia, had entered the fray, and at least to all appearances on the side of the Hatfields. Wilson demanded that the illegally taken prisoners be returned to West Virginia.Wilson expressed outrage to both governor Buckner and to the federal government, sued the government of Kentucky for the illegal arrest of the nine prisoners being held there, and demanded reparations for the raids into his state. He also ordered the West Virginia Guard to mobilize and move units to the border with Kentucky to prevent further incursions into the state. In response, Buckner dispatched units of Kentucky’s guard to the border area as protection against retaliatory raids by either West Virginia troops or supporters of the Hatfields. Only two decades after the end of the Civil War the military assets of two states were facing each other over their shared border, as a result of the feud between the Hatfields and the McCoys.Among the nine men taken to Kentucky to stand trial for the murder of Alifair McCoy and others was Valentine Hatfield, known as Wall and a man with some connections in the government of West Virginia. Through his ministrations, Governor Wilson demanded the return of the prisoners by arguing that they had been denied due process and had been illegally extradited by Kentucky. Kentucky argued that the prisoners were in custody, under indictment, and that the state had no obligation to release them to West Virginia or any other entity, regardless of the circumstances of their arrest. In April the case was appealed by Governor Wilson to the Supreme Court of the United States. The Court issued no finding regarding the legality or illegality of the arrest, but agreed with Kentucky in their argument that no federal law existed which would prohibit the prisoners from being tried for the crimes committed in Kentucky, regardless of the nature of events which resulted with them being in custody. The finding was 7-2 in favor of Kentucky. With the nine men in custody pending trial the feud was effectively over, at least as pertains to violence against the other family. But several questions over the feud itself and the many participants arose in the aftermath of the arrests. Devil Anse was not among the prisoners, and neither West Virginia nor Kentucky authorities sought his arrest, despite his physical location being well known. Nor was Cap Hatfield in custody. One of the prisoners taken to Kentucky for trial was Valentine Hatfield, and at his trial he was convicted of involvement in the murders of the McCoy children and sentenced to life in prison. Wall Hatfield may not have been involved in the attack for which he was charged, in 2014 his great-grandson, an Episcopal priest, told the Bluefield (West Virginia) Daily Telegraph that family lore was that Wall surrendered voluntarily and that he hadn’t been guilty of the crime for which he had been charged. He also recounted a story of another relative visiting the Kentucky State Prison to review the records of his great-grandfather and learning of a different cause of death than that recorded by most historians.ADVERTISEMENTAccording to most accounts of the feud, once he was convicted Wall communicated with his brothers, asking for their assistance in getting him out of jail, but they refused over fears of being arrested. Wall died in prison under circumstances which remain officially unknown. According to his great-grandson, an official of the Kentucky prison system reviewed the records at the request of a relative of the Hatfields, and reported to her that he was placed in a cellblock alongside several convicted members of the McCoy clan, who killed Wall Hatfield in prison. The cause of death and the location of his grave were never released officially to the Hatfield family, who still question the nature of his role in the feud. According to the accounts of several historians regarding the feud, Kentucky Special Officer Frank Phillips captured a deputy named Bill Dempsey who had been supporting the Hatfields, and executed him on the spot, an act of outright murder, though he was not held accountable for the crime. Other accounts have Phillips similarly executing Uncle Jim Vance rather than taking him into custody. Phillips referred to himself as “Bad Frank”, and claimed to have ridden at one time with the James-Younger Gang. Whether or not true, he did name one of his sons Jesse James Phillips, and he was indicted at various times in several jurisdictions. MORE ON THE FUEDGoing back to Perry Cline, Whether Perry Cline instigated the feud, using Randolph McCoy and his family as a red flag to enrage Devil Anse, has been debated by many over the years. The story of Anse using the courts to deprive Cline of a significant section of valuable land has been cited as the motive for Cline to try to damage the Hatfield clan. Some writers and historians have laid the blame for the feud at the feet of Perry Cline, using his many instances of arousing the anger of the McCoy’s against the Hatfields as evidence that he manipulated the feud, and inflamed it during its several periods of near-dormancy. But other aspects of Cline’s character and his achievements in Pike County call this judgment into question in many ways.There is little doubt that the McCoy family and their supporters suffered more deaths and the destruction of property over the course of the feud, and Randolph McCoy’s frustrations were elevated by his failures to obtain justice in the courts. Cline may have just been using his influence and political connections to help the McCoy family. Cline was well respected in Pike County and its environs; he started the first school for black children in the county and was elected to the state legislature, where he exhibited significant political skills. The theory that Cline incited the feud to get back at Devil Anse also falls flat when it is considered that Anse’s business remained intact and profitable in the feud’s aftermath, and if anything his influence in Logan County was enhanced.One of the motivating factors for the Hatfield attack on Randolph McCoy’s home was the bounty placed on the heads of several members of the clan, including a $500 bounty on Devil Anse, the recognized leader of the Hatfield’s and their supporters. Anse has gone down in history as the undisputed leader of the West Virginia Hatfield clan, despite the fact that he was not arrested and was never tried for any of the multitude of violent crimes he supposedly directed. While some have ascribed his eluding prosecution to his political connections in West Virginia, it has been noted that his brother Wall held similar connections, which did not preclude him from being tried, convicted, and imprisoned in Kentucky, where he died. Anse was never, except when attempting to outmaneuver Frank Phillips and his posse of vigilantes, on the run; his whereabouts were well-known to both members of the Hatfield clan and the McCoy faction attempting to bring him to justice. Court records also demonstrate that Anse was prone to using the courts, both in Logan County and in Pike County, to resolve differences, as indicated by the incident with the stolen hog. Nor was he present during the attack on the McCoy home. He was part of the murder of the three McCoy brothers following the murder of his own brother, an incident which much of the Tug Valley found to be justified. If he was in fact the leader of the Hatfield clan, as most accounts claim, he nonetheless escaped legal retribution, and attempts to exact justice upon him ended with the trial of the Hatfield’s in Kentucky. Cap Hatfield was the second son of Devil Anse, a man known to have a violent streak and a quarrelsome nature throughout the Tug River region. Cap was the type of man who preferred fighting to discussion and believed that vengeance was a duty of the offended. Cap was one of many of the feud’s participants of which there are conflicting accounts, some say he was arrested by Frank Phillips on the same day that the latter killed Uncle Jim Vance, others recount that he escaped Phillips on that day. At one point he was in the Logan County (later Mingo County) Jail, from which he reportedly escaped and eluded justice, probably with the help of his father. Cap was never brought to justice.ADVERTISEMENTDuring the trial which led to the sentencing of Ellison Mounts to death, eyewitness testimony from Randolph McCoy was that it was Cap Hatfield who had killed Alifair McCoy, testimony which conflicted with the confession offered by Mounts. As Cap frequently sided with his mentor, Jim Vance, who consistently recommended violent solutions to perceived slights, it seems likely that he was present during the attack, probably leading it along with his uncle. Cap escaped the feud and the pursuit of the vigilantes and vanished. In 1930, he died at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, one of the last survivors of the feud. His death was described in the New York Times as being the result of a brain ailment.James Vance was well-known in both Logan and Pike Counties, referred to as Crazy Jim Vance by the McCoy family and as Uncle Jim Vance to the Hatfield clan. The McCoys liked to point out that his father, Abner Vance, had been hanged and had never been married to Jim’s mother. A guerrilla fighter in Logan and Pike Counties during the Civil War, Vance was widely believed to have been the killer of Asa Harmon McCoy in 1865. Vance was accused by the McCoy’s of being the leader of the assault on the McCoy home during the New Year’s attack, and there was testimony that it was he who had severely beaten Sarah McCoy with a rifle butt as she attempted to reach her wounded daughter.Vance has been portrayed down the years as a psychopathic killer, one of the leading proponents of the violence which marked the feud. Following his death and the disappearance of Cap Hatfield, the violence of the feud subsided, despite Devil Anse, the presumed leader of the Hatfield clan, remaining at large. Some historians believe that Cap Hatfield witnessed the execution of the wounded Jim Vance at the hands of Frank Phillips, which led to Cap’s decision to flee the region. Despite his criminal history, Vance at one point served as a constable, though many of the Hatfield’s did so in Logan County, despite being considered outlaws in Pike County, so Vance’s service with the law cannot be a consideration when evaluating his true character. Throughout the twentieth century, the Hatfield and McCoy feud grew in legend. It became sensationalized in newspapers and magazines, fictionalized in periodicals and film, satirized in vaudeville, and trivialized in cartoons and comics. Portions of the feud were presented as romantic drama, as in the film Roseanna McCoy, released in 1949, which approached the feud from the perspective of star-crossed lovers of the Romeo and Juliet type. Mark Twain was one of the first to use the feud as a basis for one of his tales, describing the feud between the Grangerfords and the Sheperdsons in his novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Even Betty Boop appeared in the cartoon with a feud as a backdrop.On June 14, 2003, in Pikeville, Kentucky, the McCoy cousins partnered with Reo Hatfield of Waynesboro, Virginia, to declare an official truce between the families. Reo Hatfield said that he wanted to show that if the two families could reach an accord, others could also. He had said that he wanted to send a broader message to the world that when national security is at risk, Americans put their differences aside and stand united: "We're not saying you don't have to fight because sometimes you do have to fight," he said. "But you don't have to fight forever." Signed by more than sixty descendants during the fourth Hatfield–McCoy Festival, the truce was touted as a proclamation of peace, saying "We ask by God's grace and love that we be forever remembered as those that bound together the hearts of two families to form a family of freedom in America." Governor Paul E. Patton of Kentucky and Governor Bob Wise of West Virginia signed proclamations declaring June 14 Hatfield and McCoy Reconciliation Day. Ron McCoy, one of the festival's founders, said it is unknown where the three signed proclamations will be exhibited and that "the Hatfields and McCoys symbolize violence and feuding and fighting, but by signing this, hopefully people will realize that's not the final chapter.the Hatfield and McCoy Reunion Festival and Marathon are held annually in June on a three-day weekend. The events take place in Pikeville, Kentucky, Matewan, West Virginia, and Williamson, West Virginia. The festival commemorates the famed feud and includes a marathon and half-marathon (the motto is "no feudin', just runnin'"), in addition to an ATV ride in all three towns. There is also a tug-of-war across the Tug Fork tributary near which the feuding families lived, a live re-enactment of scenes from their most famous fight, a motorcycle ride, live entertainment, Hatfield–McCoy landmark tours, a cornbread contest, pancake breakfast, arts, crafts, and dancing. Launched in 2000, the festival typically attracts thousands with more than 300 runners taking part in the races.[29]Statue honoring Randolph McCoy at the McCoy Homeplace in Hardy, KYIn August 2015 members of both families helped archeologists dig for ruins at a site where they believe Randolph McCoy's house was burnedIn September 2018, a wooden statue, standing over 8 feet tall, was erected in honor of Randolph McCoy at the McCoy homeplace in Hardy, Kentucky. Carved by chainsaw carver Travis Williams and donated to the property, this statue had been commissioned by McCoy property owner and Hatfield descendant Bob Scott. The statue was unveiled during Hatfield-McCoy Heritage Days in Pike County, Kentucky, an event that occurs every September that brings Hatfield and McCoy descendants back to Pike County to celebrate the long-standing peace between the families. The McCoy homeplace, like many others associated with the feud, is open to tourists year-round Top horror movies set in kentucky...there is only 4 apparently…Films set in Kentucky - IMDb Horror movies set in west virginiaFilms set in West Virginia - IMDbThe Midnight Train Podcast is sponsored by VOUDOUX VODKA.www.voudoux.com Ace’s Depothttp://www.aces-depot.com BECOME A PRODUCER!http://www.patreon.com/themidnighttrainpodcast Find The Midnight Train Podcast:www.themidnighttrainpodcast.comwww.facebook.com/themidnighttrainpodcastwww.twitter.com/themidnighttrainpcwww.instagram.com/themidnighttrainpodcastwww.discord.com/themidnighttrainpodcastwww.tiktok.com/themidnighttrainp And wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

This week we catch up with professional triathlete Ben Kanute. We first interviewed Ben for episode 43 back in November of 2016. We talked about Ben's roots in triathlon, the influence of one of his earliest coaches, and a detailed account of Ben's road to the Rio Olympics. At that time, he has just made the switch to his Coach Jim Vance. I highly recommend going back to have a listen to both of those podcasts; great information for life and sport. In this episode, we dive in with Ben to find out what's been going on with this US Olympian and 3x National Champion since we last spoke. BJ and I are excited to share our conversation today, thank you so much for tuning in. In this episode, we discuss: - why a calm mind is a fast mind - different states of flow - energy management - how yoga has informed his performance in triathlon - honing his fatherhood skills - the most powerful type of goals - Ben and Courtney's languages of love Speaking of love, if you're loving the pod, we'd love you to leave a review on Apple Podcast. Namaste - Jess

The Hatfield–McCoy feud, also described by journalists as the Hatfield–McCoy war, involved two rural families of the West Virginia–Kentucky area along the Tug Fork of the Big Sandy River in the years 1863–1891. The Hatfields of West Virginia were led by William Anderson "Devil Anse" Hatfield while the McCoys of Kentucky were under the leadership of Randolph "Ole Ran'l" McCoy. Those involved in the feud were descended from Joseph Hatfield and William McCoy (born c. 1750). The feud has entered the American folklore lexicon as a metonym for any bitterly feuding rival parties. William McCoy, the patriarch of the McCoys, was born in Ireland around 1750 and many of his ancestors hailed from Scotland.[1] The family, led by grandson Randolph McCoy, lived mostly on the Kentucky side of Tug Fork (a tributary of the Big Sandy River).[2] The Hatfields, led by William Anderson "Devil Anse" Hatfield, son of Ephraim and Nancy (Vance) Hatfield, lived mostly on the West Virginia side.[3] The majority of the Hatfields, although living in Mingo County (then part of Logan County), West Virginia, fought on the Confederate side in the American Civil War; most McCoys, living in Pike County, Kentucky, also fought for the Confederates;[4] with the exception of Asa Harmon McCoy, who fought for the Union. The first real violence in the feud was the death of Asa Harmon McCoy as he returned from the war, murdered by a group of Confederate Home Guards called the Logan Wildcats. Devil Anse Hatfield was a suspect at first, but was later confirmed to have been sick at home at the time of the murder. It was widely believed that his uncle, Jim Vance, a member of the Wildcats, committed the murder.[5]Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/anthologyofhorror)
Welcome to Episode 25 of the U23 Triathlon Podcast. We are here with Coach Jim Vance, best known for helping Ben Kanute become one of the most versatile triathletes in the sport. In addition to being a high performance coach with Formula Endurance, Coach Vance is also an author and sport technology and training consultant. He was the head coach of our Junior Elite Select Camp at the Olympic Training Center back in the fall and taught us a lot about his training techniques and philosophies
Thank you for listening to another episode of the Stryd Power Podcast! On this episode, we get to hear from Coach Jim Vance on a variety of subjects including: How to tell if you are actually improving Why you might consider run/walk as a strategy How to correctly set a ceiling for your next race
Welcome to the 5th episode of the Stryd Power Podcast! This episode covers 12 reasons that a running power meter makes you a better runner. The inspiration for this episode comes from Run with Power by Jim Vance. "In the history of running technology, a stopwatch is probably equivalent to using a typewriter—pretty good at its job, but severely limited in scope. Running’s step up to heart rate monitors was a revelation, but in retrospect, it was like moving from the typewriter to what we would now regard as an old, heavy, slow desktop computer. Today’s GPS wrist units are like the first cellphones, much like a flip-phone. The portable power meter for running is the next step, equivalent to the laptop, tablet, and smartphone coming into existence all at once. And while you can still accomplish a lot with a desktop computer, you likely will be much more effective in many ways if you add the laptop, tablet, and smartphone to your arsenal. This is what the power meter brings to the world of training and racing for competitive running." Here are just some of the ways a power meter for running can positively affect your training and performance: Boost Your Training Specificity Improve Your Running Technique Your Power Numbers Don’t Lie Monitor Injuries Know Truly How Hard You’re Training Better Recovery Power Meters Offer Precision Tapering Warm-Up Without Wasting Energy Power-to-Weight Ratios Speed per Watt Pacing to Win Know When to Open the Throttle For all this information and more you can read Run with Power by Jim Vance

Last week's guest Thanks to last week's guest, ultra and adventure racer Travis Macy who is the author of The Ultra Mindset: an endurance champion's 8 core principles for success in business, sports and life. If you haven't heard the interview yet, go back and check it out on episode #105. Discussion Teasers After the interview I'll have some thoughts on the interview with Jim Vance, his book Triathlon 2.0, considerations for the self-coached athlete, and an offer to those who want to take their training to the next level or feel like they could use the partnership of a coach this season. I also have some reflections on some of the show highlights this year and some of the interviews that were particularly memorable and informational. Last, I have a funny Christmas triathlon gift story and a ask to see if any of you have good triathlon or gear Christmas stories that you would share. That's it for the teasers, let's go to the interview. Interview Setup Jim Vance is an elite endurance sports coach, author, and sport technology and training consultant based in San Diego, California. He is the personal coach 2016 US Olympic triathlete Ben Kanute, guiding him to 2017 performances of victory at Escape from Alcatraz and Island House Triathlon, as well as a 2nd place finish at the 70.3 World Championships. Triathlon 2.0 is an extremely useful book if you are a self-coached athlete. It will help give you concrete information on how to use data to do baseline testing, guidelines for determining goal training stress, and concepts for how to create a periodized training plan. After the interview, we'll go through a couple pages of the book to give you a practical example of how to determine goal CTL for each the bike and run using an hypothetical athlete and race distance. As Jim emphasizes in the book, these will just be examples and do not apply to all athletes or all race situations. Let's get into the interview now. Interview Jim Vance Health IQ Ad And we are back.

Host Discussion Topics Practical example from Triathlon 2.0 As Jim and I discussed, there is no substitute for using hard data to assess and measure performance. This is not to say that there is not a time and place for training or racing by feel. I'll give you a couple of examples. I like to do some rides and runs where I never look at a bike computer or look at my watch. If I'm thinking about the data on my device, that part of my concentration that is on the device is not on the effort or form of the training itself. In this case performance might be limited by not being able to fully concentrate on the training. Here's another example, there are times with the information on the screen might limit your performance because you curtail effort because the data is telling you are going harder or faster than your rate of perceived exertion. Let's say your 5 minute peak power is 300 watts from previous training sessions. You are doing a 5 minute Vo2 max effort on the bike and you look down and your average 20 second power has been 310 for the first minute of your interval. You may not believe you are capable of carrying that effort for the remaining 4 minutes and end up backing off. If you were training by feel and just going off RPE, you actually may have been on a breakthrough performance and could have achieved a new PR 5 minute peak power. My daughter's high school cross country coach won't let the athletes race with watches because it can limit their competitive nature. The concern that they may be in the heat of battle keeping pace with a team mate or a lead group, and they see that their pace is 10 seconds faster than they've trained to and they back off and let that team mate or group go. So there is a time and place for going by feel. Here's where you want some actual data - let's say you are doing your functional threshold testing for bFTP or rFTP. You may do the effort without looking at a watch or power meter if you have a coach or lab tech doing your test, but you damn sure want to have data to record what the power or pace is, correct? Here's another, when you work with a coach or go to prepare you periodized training plan, you need to assess your current training load and your goal training load based on your "A" race goal and "goal" for that race (meaning distance and planned result). Just using hours of training or mileage is not a measure of actual stress because they don't account for intensity. Plus, as we learned in the interview with Jim, preriodization is changing the type of training you are doing as you progress from phase to phase through your plan. You start in the base phase doing general training and get more specific the closer you get to your goal. Similarly, your intensity increases when you get into your build and peak phases altering the training load for a given duration or distance. Having an objective measure of the starting CTL and goal CTL are critical to your plan. You can assess your baseline CTL by using TrainingPeaks as long as you are recording all of your bike and run workouts and are using power and/or heart rate. As Jim mentioned, you want to track these seperately. You should work with a qualified coach to help you determine what your target CTL is for your race goal and to know whether your ramp rate from the baseline to the goal given the number of weeks to your "A" race is appropriate. If you want to learn more about this process or want help planning for next season, reach out to me at Rich@milehighendurance.com Speaking of your 2018 season, if you are listening to this episode on the day of release then you are listening to this on New Year's Eve.

Some of the interviews that really stood out for me: The late Terry Laughlin from Total Immersion was such an amazing contributor to our sport and the sport of swimming. Terry revolutionized swim learning and swimming techniques to help people swim faster with less effort. Coach David Warden who was the host of Tri-Talk and a science-based coaching. He was one of the inspirations for MHE and he consulted me as I researched starting the show. He was a contributing author to Triathlon Science and is one of the smartest coaches in the business. We have had legendary professional athletes like Amanda Stevens, Joanna Zeiger, Mary Beth Ellis, Rachel Joyce, Andrew Talansky, TJ Tollakson, Bek Keat, Siri Lindley, Ben Hoffman and Matt Chrabot We have had our friends at USAT including Rocky Harris, Tim Yount, Jessica Welk, Meg Duncan and Barry Siff Finally we have had some of the best coaches in the business including some of the legendary athletes plus Melissa Mantak, Ken Axford, Sara McLarty, Will Murray, and of course Jim Vance. Of course there's also the Kona coverage and all of the special interviews we did on that trip including Bob Babbitt, Mike Reilly, Tim Hola, Chrissy Wellington, Andy Potts and Tim O'Donnell. Among the highlights of 2017 is of course the partnership with 303Triathlon and the entire team. Of course that includes Bill Plock and Khem Suthiwan. It also includes Dana Willet, Jen Findlay, Todd Plymale-Mallory and Kim Welk. I'd like to thank them for supporting MHE and welcoming me as a part of the 303 team. Thanks to all of the people who have supported MHE.

Last week's guest Thanks to last week's guest, professional cyclist Jillian Bearden for candidly sharing her story about her journey through the pro cycling ranks, through her transition and trail blazing work with the International Olympic Committee and USA Cycling. We received some great feedback. If you haven't heard the interview yet, go back and check it out on episode #104. I did have a fact brought to my attention that Michelle Dumaresq is a Canadian professional downhill mountain bike competitor and post-operative trans woman. She competes with other professional female downhill mountain bike racers and raced downhill as a pro in 2002. It's hard to be sure, but that would make Michelle a pro cyclist some years before Jillian. That said, if you simply type into Google "who is the first pro transgender cyclist?", my browser spits back Jillian Bearden - perhaps from my search history - perhaps the assumption is road cycling. Regardless, Jillian is clearly the athlete who blazed the trail with IOC and USAC. Great courage by Jillian! Can't wait to see her race in 2018. Thanks to our listeners for staying engaged and keeping information coming our way. We want to make sure we have our facts straight and share additional perspectives or angles to our stories. Discussion Teasers After the interview we are going to talk about the power of smiling when going to the pain cave or when the going gets tough in endurance racing or training. We also have a discussion on other activities that you can do in the off season to develop your gluteus medius, including rollerblading and skate skiing. Interview Setup Travis Macy summited glacial peaks in the French Alps, rappelled into vast limestone caves in China, and ran through parched deserts in Utah. Most famously, he won one of the country's marquee ultra-distance events: Leadman, a high-altitude series of super-long-distance races, culminating with a 100-mile mountain biking race and a 100-mile trail run. Macy accomplished it without exceptional strength, speed, or flexibility, and without high-tech performance labs or performance-enhancing drugs. His secret? A precise and particular outlook he calls the "Ultra Mindset," principles for daily life that are neither mysterious nor the sole province of ascetics or elite athletes: embrace fear, rewrite stories we tell ourselves, and master the art of seeking help, among others. By applying the principles such as "It's All Good Mental Training," "When you have no choice, anything is possible," and "Never quit...except when you should quit" to other areas of life, anyone can find success that otherwise would have seemed impossible. We're going to get into the interview right now with Travis Macy. Interview Travis Macy Health IQ Ad And we are back. Thanks again to Health IQ for sponsoring today's interview.

Host Discussion Topics Travis Macy reflections: First of all - Travis is a complete bad ass. Not only has he competed is some of the toughest, most epic, endurance races - he's been at the top of the sport and competed on some of the top teams. I didn't know much about adventure racing before reading this book, but man these races sound like a bitch to plan and pack for let alone race. This leads into my topic, which is about the power of smiling when training hard or when you hit a rough patch. I subscribe to Travis Macy's Ultra Mindset newsletter and I saw one of his recent guests was Jason Schlarb who is one of the best ultra-runners in the world. One of the things they talk about in their interview, which you can check out on YouTube, is about the power of smiling when you hit a rough patch. The Ultra Mindset with Jason Schlarb There are also some excellent articles, including: https://www.outsideonline.com/2256666/smiling-makes-you-more-efficient-runner https://www.topdowndental.com/3-reasons-why-you-should-smile-when-youre-running/ https://www.active.com/running/articles/6-tips-to-push-past-the-pain And in the book "The Sports Gene" they talked about the shared neural network in the brain between pain centers and emotion centers.

Last week's guest Thanks to last week's guest CEO of USA Triathlon, Rock Harris, who joined us to share his vision for triathlon and USAT. He has been on the job for a couple of months now and we want to get his assessment of the state of sport, where he sees opportunities and the path forward to implement some exciting changes. Discussion Teasers Before we get into the interview, let's say hi to Khem and Bill and tell you what we have for the post interview discussion. Hey guys how are you doing this week? Team Colorado Event IMKona Feature Importance of strength work and rolling, plus a few hip and gluteous strengtheners Interview Setup It's not uncommon for us to talk to a professional cyclist on this show. This is an interview that goes well beyond our traditional discussion of athletic background, racing highlights and tips to listeners. Jillian opens up and allows us to discuss what is exceptionally personal experience and emotions that come with her transition experience and work with the IOC and USAC to create a path for trans athletes to compete at a professional level in cycling. She has become a hero to others who are on the same journey, showing others how cycling and endurance sport can change your life in ways you wouldn't expect.

Host Discussion Topics Jillian Bearden debrief topics: First, I have a ton of respect for Jillian and the courage it took for her to not give up, turn things around 180 degrees, be a self-advocate and now an advocate for others. I did not realize until we got into the interview that it was she that worked with the IOC and USAC to define the trans athlete path to professional racing. I went into the interview being cautious to not push her to get more personal than she was comfortable - I totally underestimated her courage and willingness to share.

Rocky Harris debrief topics: Rocky has met with several constituent groups in his first 90 days, which do you think presented the greatest opportunity based on what you heard? Rocky mentioned several new ideas. In your opinion, which have the most promise? What impressed you the most? My feeling is that triathlon is in the hands of someone that knows how to make an honest assessment of opportunities and has some really exciting ideas. Ideas that I liked was the standardized "one stop shopping" for races, a Yelp-like rating platform. Khem's topics: Premier Bills topics: Spin class promo Rich's topics: Indoor training; finding your most efficient cadence; and the quest for your peak power output https://www.active.com/cycling/articles/why-fast-pedaling-makes-cyclists-more-efficient To determine the actual effects of slow and fast pedaling on leg-muscle cells, scientists at the University of Wisconsin and the University of Wyoming asked eight experienced cyclists to cycle at an intensity of 85 percent V02max for 30 minutes under two different conditions. In one case the cyclists pedaled their bikes at 50 revolutions per minute (rpm) while using a high gear. In the second case, the athletes pedaled in a low gear at 100 rpm. The athletes were traveling at identical speeds in the two instances, so their leg-muscle contractions were quite forceful at 50 rpm and moderate—but more frequent—at 100 rpm. As it turned out, the athletes' oxygen consumption rates were nearly identical in the two cases, and heart and breathing rates, total rate of power production, and blood lactate levels were also similar. However, athletes broke down the carbohydrate in their muscles at a greater rate when the 50 rpm strategy was used, while the 100 rpm cadence produced a greater reliance on fat. The greater glycogen depletion at 50 rpm occurred only in fast-twitch muscle cells. Slow-twitch muscle cells lost comparable amounts of their glycogen at 50 and 100 rpm, but fast-twitch cells lost almost 50 percent of their glycogen at 50 rpm and only 33 percent at 100 rpm, even though the exercise bouts lasted for 30 minutes in each case. This rapid loss of carbohydrate in the fast-twitch cells during slow, high-force pedaling probably explains why slow pedaling is less efficient than faster cadences of 80 to 85 rpm. Basically, as the fast fibers quickly deplete their glycogen during slow, high-strength pedaling, their contractions become less forceful, so more muscle cells must be activated to maintain a particular speed. This activation of a larger number of muscle cells then leads to higher oxygen consumption rates and reduced economy. This scenario, in which slow pedaling pulls the glycogen out of fast-twitch muscle cells, may sound paradoxical but it isn't; after all, slow pedaling rates are linked with high gears and elevated muscle forces, while fast cadences are associated with low gears and easy muscle contractions. Since fast-twitch fibers are more powerful than slow-twitch cells, the fast-twitch fibers swing into action at slow cadences, when high muscular forces are needed to move the bicycle along rapidly. On the other hand, "fast" pedaling rates of 80 to 100 rpm are not too hot for the slow-twitch cells to handle. Slow-twitch cells can contract 80 to 100 times per minute and can easily cope with the forces required to pedal in low gear. Another possible paradox in the Wisconsin/Wyoming research was that fast pedaling led to greater fat oxidation, even though maximal fat burning is usually linked with slow-paced efforts. Basically, the higher fat degradation at 100 rpm occurred because the slow-twitch cells handled the fast-paced, low-force contractions. Slow-twitch fibers are much better fat-burners than their fast-twitch neighbors. Fortunately, there's a bottom line to all this: During training and competition, cyclists should attempt to use fast pedaling rates of 80 to 85 rpm, both on the flat and on inclines. Compared to slower cadences, the higher pedaling speeds are more economical and burn more fat during exercise. Ultimately, the high pedaling rates also preserve greater amounts of glycogen in fast-twitch muscle fibers, leading to more explosive "kicks" to the finish line in closing moments of races.

Mile High Endurance is your weekly connection to coaches, experts and pro athletes to help you reach your endurance and triathlon goals. We're your hosts Rich Soares and Bill Plock and we are glad you are joining us for another week of endurance interviews and discussion. Khem Suthiwan is still on vacation in Iceland, but will be back next week. Would a triathlete be a national Time Trial Champion? Sure. Would a triathlete be a winner of the Critérum du Dauphiné? I doubt it? Would a triathlete be the winner of the Mt Baldie Stage of the Tour of California? Not likely. How about have ttop 10 and 11 GC standings at the Tour de France? Well if you guessed those accomplishments belong to Andrew Talansky, you are correct. We have Andrew joining us in just a few minutes. But wait there's more. You all know how much we like to talk about and emphasize learning proper form and technique. We have Halo Neuroscience co-founder, Dr. Daniel Chao joining us with Andrew to talk about the way Andrew has used Halo as a professional cyclist to do specific strength and endurance training, and now how he is using it as a tool to continue to develop his swimming and running form and technique. Dr. Chao will help us understand the science of electric wave stimulation of the motor cortex, hyper plasticity and how similar learning motor skills are to cognitive learning.

Discussion Teasers Before we get into the interview, let's catch up with Bill. How was your Thanksgiving? What do you want to chat about after the interview with Sara? Rich: Island House Triathlon NXR SW Team Results Interview Setup Sara McLarty is a professional triathlete. In the world of triathlon, she is considered a fast swimmer. She was known has being the "first out of the water" at every race. One of her biggest leads was 90 seconds at the 2006 World Cup in Ishigaki, Japan. Most of her competitions were international-distance and draft-legal. She competed against the best in the world at World Cup and World Championship races. She also enjoy competing in the famous American races: Escape from Alcatraz, Lifetime Fitness and Chicago. She would battle men like Andy Potts and Hunter Kemper in the waters of San Francisco Bay. Are you ready for that super-special swimming secret? Are you ready to discover how to be "first out of the water"? First, join the local swim team when you are 4 years old. Find a great coach who focuses on basic techniques and emphasizes the importance of developing a beautiful stroke. Swim year-round on a club team for 10 years and race your teammates in the pool every day. Then, if you are still healthy and enjoying the water, head off to a top swimming college (like the University of Florida) for four more years. Your next best option is to listen to the interview we have coming up right now with Sara. Should we get it rolling? Interview Sara McLarty Health IQ Ad And we are back.

We went to Orlando in October of 2009 about 6 weeks before Ironman Cozumel and I needed a place to get some swimming in. I got on www.beginnertriathlete.com and got on the forums to find Orlando swimming info and someone recommended Lucky's Lake Swim. I went out there one morning around 6am. I did a couple laps, met Lucky, wrote my name on the bottom of his deck, got the patch and bumper sticker.

Welcome Welcome to Episode #99 of the Mile High Endurance podcast. Mile High Endurance is your weekly connection to coaches, experts and pro athletes to help you reach your endurance and triathlon goals. We're your hosts Rich Soares, Khem Suthiwan and Bill Plock and we are glad you are joining us for another week of endurance interviews and discussion. If you think running a 50-80 miles a day for over a week can result in hallucinations, you are right. Our interview today is with Bryan Williams, who owns the fastest known time for the 490 mile Colorado Trail Run with a time of 8 days and 30 minutes. Last week's guest Thanks to last week's guest coach Jim Vance on his book Run With Power, The Complete Guide to Running with Power. We answered questions like why would you want to train with a running power meter? What does a running power meter measure? What metrics does it provide? How do they work? How do the various power dimensions relate to each other? How can you use it to manage your season? Know your taper is working? If you have not heard the interview, go check out episode 98. 30 Second Ad Our show is supported by 303 Triathlon and 303 Cycling are your resource for news and events on triathlon and cycling in Colorado. 303Radio is your news podcast. Check out the latest on 303 Radio where we caught up with head coach Geoff Hanson to learn about the Maverick's first season and this foundation-building year. Colorado Mesa University is the first NCAA Triathlon program in the State of Colorado. Discussion Teasers We are going to get right into the interview in a couple of minutes, but before we do let's check in with Khem Suthiwan and Bill Plock - how's it going guys? What are we going to talk about after the interview with Bryan? Interview Setup The them question of today's show is "what are your limits?" There are some endurance feats that are so epic you can't help but be inspired. For most of us, running a marathon or completing and Ironman seems like a challenge that takes us to our personal limits. In a few minutes, we are going to the guy that did his first marathon seven years ago and just this past few weeks, Bryan not only ran 8 times the distance a marathon, but he did it over terrain that took him over 13,500 feet in some cases. We'll talk about those who inspired him, how he planned for the event, what his daily schedule was like, how he fueled, how h slept and more. Let's get into the interview with coach Bryan Williams. Host Discussion Topics Khem's Topics Bill's Topics Rich's Topics Thanks for turning me on to the Barkley's marathon. Brady had originally made me aware of it, but I'd never seen the documentary until this past week. It was exciting to watch the NYC Marathon and watch Shalane Flanagan win commandingly Our guest Bryan Williams ran the CTR 7 years after his first marathon. The distance of the CTR was literally 20 times the distance of the marathon. In the book "The Way of the Seal", Mark Divine writes about your "20X Factor". The concept is that with the right mental training, we are capable of 20X what we may initially believe we are capable of. A number of things game together for me in a flash of inspiration. In the last week or so, I read Bob Seebohar's article on NeuroHalo Sport and brain stimulation to enhance power and learning. In the article Bob writes "My experience with technology and coaching, as well as some creativity, gave me a very unique perspective on what we should do with the Halo system. My gut feeling with any performance-enhancing device is that you must factor in placebo early, as athletes respond to nearly anything if they believe enough. " I read Joanna Zeiger's book on the Champion's Mindset. And just this morning continued listening to the TrainerRoad podcast with Matt Fitzgerald on How Bad Do You Want It. The question I want to pose is, to what degree do you think the power of the mind can shape our training, the size of our goals and our race day performance? Upcoming Interviews Geoff Hanson, head triathlon coach at Mesa State University on their new NCAA program Don Reichelt (Spartathlon Ultra) Joanna Zeiger - The Champion Mindset Andrew Talansky on his first triathlon, Kona 2018 and how the Halo Sport fits in with his training Rocky Harris, CEO of USAT Erik Kenny - EK Coaching Ken Axford on bike handling skills Billy the Kid Edwards Affiliate Programs Please support the brands that support the show and our listeners.

Khem, let's start with you - what are we going to talk about after the interview? Bill, what "hippie haps" do folks want to stick around for? I can't wait to talk about Bandito Cross and what a crazy fun "not really racing" event that was. Anything involving bikes, beer and bacon is something you do not want to miss. I also want to share a documentary recommendation that is a must see for anyone who is concerned with fair competition in athletic competition. In "Icarus", Bryan Fogel, is the man behind this expose account of Russia's state-sponsored doping program. Fogel is also a keen amateur cyclist and, in the wake of the Lance Armstrong scandal, set out to prove just how easy it was to evade cycling's creaking testing system by competing chemically enhanced in the same prestigious amateur race, Haute Route, that he had struggled in the year before. The plan was to boost his best time, pass with flying colours through the urine tests required of all competitors. Hollywood could not engineer twists and turns and incredible revelations that unfold. We'll talk about that after the interview. Interview Setup I'm willing to bet that 99% of the listeners of this show have trained with a heart rate monitor and knows something about heart rate training zones. I'm sure the majority of you also train with a bike power meter. What you may be less familiar with is running with a power meter. Why would you want to train with a running power meter? What does a running power meter measure? What metrics does it provide? How do they work? How do the various power dimensions relate to each other? How can you use it to manage your season? Know your taper is working? If you want to know the answer to any of these questions, you are going to love this interview with the guy who literally wrote the book on it! Let's get into the interview with coach Jim Vance!

Remembering Terry Laughlin, Total Immersion and former guest Terry Laughlin, who created the technique-focused swim training system known as “Total Immersion,” passed away Friday, Oct. 20, after complications with prostate cancer. Laughlin was 66 years old. Laughlin is survived by his wife, Alice, and daughters Fiona, Carrie and Betsy. The family announced his death Monday: “After living with metastatic prostate cancer for two years, Terry passed away on Friday, October 20th, 2017, of complications related to his condition. “He displayed his characteristic optimism, wit, and passion for life—and swimming—until the very end. Our family is in mourning and we ask that we be given time and space to grieve a beloved husband and father privately.” Terry talks about swimming like some people describe an Italian sports car or fine art, or a food describes their favorite dessert. #62 - Interview with Terry about the book Total Immersion and what the Total Immersion methodology is all about. #82 - We are going to talk to Terry about the importance of bi-lateral breathing, a convincing explanation of why it is possible and the opportunity to take your swim stroke to a new level. #71 - Terry Laughlin, Chief Optimist Officer at Total Immersion. Terry is coming back on the show to talk about his latest blog article "What's your best stroke rate? - How I found mine. And why it's still evolving." We'll talk about the article and you'll be sure to pick up insightful information about how to not only find your ideal stroke rate, but also learn how to reduce your SPL (to monitor stroke length). Most of the interview is about how to help you swim faster with less effort, but we also talk about some of the swim clinics they offer in great locations around the world. Bandito Cross race on Sunday I subscribe to a number of blogs and one of those is from former guest Dr Jason Karp.

An interview with Jim Vance elite triathlon coach and a true pioneer in the uncharted waters of training with a Power meter for runners. Jim has recently released his revolutionary book “Running with Power”The Complete Guide to Running to Power Meters for Running. Last October, we had Jim on before he had released his book to discuss the various aspects and benefits of power running. Now, fresh off his research Jim shares what one could expect from training with power. Jim had suggested long ago that once the benefits of training with power were better understood and made available, all records would quickly fall, from the mile to the marathon. They say; Power meters for running are the future and the future is now. Listen in to learn how this technology may help you to become a better athlete.
Jim Vance is an elite triathlon coach who has co-authored “Triathlon Science”. He is a two time Amateur World Champion in ITU and Xterra and holds an IronMan PR of 8:37:09. I brought Jim onto our podcast because he has been at the forefront in research of Power Running. Many believe that when power can be effectively measured in running, as has been cone in cycling, it will be a major game changer. In sports science thus far; heart rate is the most effective metric used to identify work relative to performance. This is an interesting time in endurance sport technology and our goal is to share some insight as to the potential of power as it applies to running performance. “All records, from 100 meters to the Marathon will drop, when we are able to effectively measure power in training”.
