As athletes, we all know what pre-race anxiety feels like. The difference between elite athletes and those still finding their stride isn't that they don't experience nervousness—they feel it just as much as we do. But they've learned to frame it differently. Coach Steve Magness says it best: "Elite athletes don't feel less anxiety before competition. They feel the same tight chest, sweaty palms, racing heart, and butterflies that the rest of us do. The difference? They've trained themselves to interpret those sensations differently." This shift—from seeing nervousness as a threat to seeing it as a challenge—is where the magic happens. Research shows that high performers don't experience less stress—they just frame it better. Rather than trying to eliminate that anxious feeling, they embrace it, knowing it's a sign that they're ready to rise. Nerves aren't the enemy. In fact, they're your body's way of saying, “You care. Something meaningful is about to happen.” So, instead of running from it, lean into it. Understand that those nerves are helping you prepare, keeping you sharp, and sharpening your focus. They're not a sign of weakness—they're a sign of strength. We can often think that nervousness means something is wrong or that we're not prepared enough. But the reality is, it means you do care. It means your mind and body are ready for the challenge ahead. The goal isn't to eliminate the nerves, it's to work with them. See them as fuel, not fear. Feel them, acknowledge them, and let them guide you forward. When you feel those pre-race jitters, remind yourself: You're about to do something meaningful. Action item: Next time those race-day nerves hit, don't push them away. Instead, breathe into them. Let them be the signal that you're ready for the challenge. Harness that energy to fuel your focus, and remember, those butterflies are pushing you toward greatness. Ready to learn how to channel that energy?  Clear the Mechanism and Rise Above Nervousness before a race can feel overwhelming. But how do you take that energy and channel it into focus instead of letting it distract you? The answer lies in a simple but powerful mindset technique from For the Love of the Game, where Kevin Costner's character, a seasoned pitcher, uses the phrase “Clear the mechanism.” This technique isn't just for baseball—it's something every triathlete can use. When the nerves start to flood your mind, and you feel like you're about to be overwhelmed by the noise, distractions, and pressure, the key is to clear the mechanism. When you clear the mechanism, you're intentionally blocking out everything that isn't directly related to the task at hand. It's like hitting the reset button, shifting your focus from the fear and doubt to the one thing you can control: your next move. Whether it's your swim stroke, your pedal cadence, or your run stride, you zoom in on that one thing and let everything else fade away. Coach Steve Magness reminds us that nerves aren't the enemy—they're a sign that you care, that your body is getting ready. But we can use those nerves to fuel us, not flood us. And just like the pitcher who needs to block out the crowd, the score, and the noise, as a triathlete, you can clear out the mental clutter and focus on what's in front of you. Here's how to apply it: When the nerves hit, take a deep breath, and clear the mechanism. Shut down the distractions, the what-ifs, and the self-doubt. Focus on your next step—the one thing you can control right now. Maybe it's your breath, your form, or the rhythm of your movement. Acknowledge the nerves, then let them guide you forward, not pull you under. By clearing your mental space, you give yourself permission to focus on the task, to be fully present, and to perform at your best. It's not about eliminating the nerves; it's about making them work for you instead of against you.     Action item: Before your next race or workout, practice clearing the mechanism. When you feel overwhelmed, mentally shut out everything except for the next task at hand. Clear the mechanism, focus on your breath, and take control of the moment. You've trained for this. Let the nerves fuel your focus and guide you to greatness.   TriDot Workout of the Week: Strength Recovery Week Training - Strength Strength training is a crucial yet often overlooked component of triathlon preparation. Exercises like reverse lunges, single-leg deadlifts, and quadruped band kickbacks help build unilateral strength and stability, which are essential for efficient running and injury prevention. Core-focused movements such as plank reaches, V-ups, and half-kneeling rotations enhance balance, posture, and power transfer across all three disciplines. Functional exercises like burpees and cross-pull lawnmowers improve overall athleticism, coordination, and cardiovascular resilience. Together, these movements not only boost muscular endurance and joint integrity but also help triathletes maintain form under fatigue, reduce injury risk, and ultimately perform more consistently across swim, bike, and run segments.   Rotate 1-3x through the following exercises doing 10-20 repetitions or 30 to 60 sec efforts of each.   Reverse Lunge Single Leg Deadlifts Half-Kneeling Rotation Plank Reaches Cross Pulls Lawnmower Burpees V Ups One leg Quadruped Band Kickbacks     Fun Segment: Trail Fail or Win!   It's time for Trail Fail or Trail Win! — the game where we throw out some wild off-road triathlon scenarios, and Rich and I decide: was this a total disaster… or a sneaky success in disguise? Some of these could be race-ending nightmares—or just epic stories waiting to happen. Let's find out!   Scenario 1: The Wild Animal Detour Mid-race, a deer darts across the trail and you crash while trying to avoid it. You roll into the bushes, get back on your feet, and still finish 3rd in your age group—leaves and twigs in your helmet included.   Scenario 2: The Wrong-Turn Bonus Miles You miss a poorly marked turn on the trail run, add nearly 1.5 miles to your race, and come in well over your expected time. But… you didn't quit and still finished smiling.     Scenario 3: The Creek Shoe Sacrifice You nail the bike leg and enter the run feeling great… until you sink into a muddy creek crossing and one of your shoes stays behind. You finish the run with one barefoot foot.     Scenario 4: Transition Tent Tantrum Your gear bag somehow ends up in someone else's spot. You panic, yell a few expletives, throw your hands up—and then remember your gear is on the other side of the rack. You recover… barely.     Scenario 5: The Mid-Race Snack Catastrophe You reach for your trail mix on the bike—your new homemade “clean fuel”—and spill it all over your top tube. The rest of the ride, you're being followed by bees. You still PR the course! So whether you're dodging wildlife, losing shoes in creeks, or baiting bees with your snacks, remember—off-road triathlon isn't just a race. It's an adventure. Keep sending us your crazy scenarios, or better yet—live them. And we'll see you next time on Trail Fail or Win!   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!  

Un podcast evidente… que no hemos hecho. ¿Por qué? ¡Porque es inabarcable! Pero se me ha ocurrido una idea: Vamos a hacer un repaso a la historia de la moto a través de hitos, mitos, curiosidades y hechos históricos… Y sí, ya en 1885 los alemanes presentaron su Reitwagen, en español “carro de montar”, de la cual existe una réplica, con motor de combustión entonces llamado de “Ciclo Otto” con 0,5 CV y una endiablado velocidad punta de 18 km/h. Siempre lo digo, el concepto de velocidad en este año en el que me encuentro, finales del Siglo XIX, y el vuestro en el futuro 2025, no tiene nada que ver. El progreso de la motocicleta fue rápido y muy “loco”. El francés Georges Gauthier, en 1902, refinó la motocicleta, construyendo una con el motor encerrado, una plataforma para los pies y que era más limpia y práctica. En el futuro se conocerá como Scooter, pero en el momento de su invención se llamó primero “Moto-sillón”; porque era eso, un sillón motorizado, y más tarde “motoneta” nombre que aún se usa en algunos lugares de América. Hablamos de América, concretamente de Norteamérica. Y es que solo un año más tarde, ya estamos en 1903, ¡como pasa el tiempo!, nace en Milwaukee, Wisconsin, EE.UU. de Norteamérica, la marca Harley Davidson. Nace en un famoso cobertizo, pero es una de las marcas con más historia y personalidad que ha llegado muy viva hasta nuestros días. Para poder competir con los automóviles que ya comenzaban a ser más asequibles las motos pasan de dos a tres ruedas. No, no te imagines triciclos como los de ahora, me refiero al invento de los “side-cars”, un carito de una rueda que se fija a un lateral de la moto, al izquierdo en lo países que circulan por la derecha y al derecho en los que países que circulan por la izquierda. Era una forma barata y rápida de multiplicar por dos la capacidad de la moto… aunque fuese a costa de dividir por dos sus prestaciones y de una conducción que era muy delicada. Hay “sidecars” que se acoplan a cualquier moto, pero hay motos que nacen ya con el “Sidecar” y que incluso llevan tracción en esa rueda, como sería el caso, en el futuro 1940, de las BMW R75 especialmente las que serían utilizadas por el ejército alemán. Sigue corriendo el tiempo y entre 1920 y 1930 se produce un cambio. La moto que había nacido como una forma de transporte barata, sencilla y asequible, con espíritu utilitario, va tomando una deriva hacia una máquina para el ocio y el viaje de placer. Y si hay una moto que representa ese cambio es la BMW R32 de 1923, con detalles tan modernos como su motor bóxer y su transmisión por cardan. Una moto que era mucho más rápida y fiable que sus contemporáneas. Y entre esas motos de alta gama, casi de lujo, en 1936 aparece la reina, la que llamamos en estos años “El Rolls Royce de las motos”, la Brough Superior SS100, nada menos que la moto utilizada por el “héroe” Lawrence de Arabia que ha llegado a comprar 8. ¿Quién nos iba a decir que tras una guerra Mundial llegará rápidamente otra? Solo fueron necesarios 20 años, 9 meses y 21 días... se ve que no habíamos escarmentado. No sé cuál fue peor, pero sí que la moto fue más protagonista en la Segunda que en la Primera, gracias no solo a las BMW alemanas, sino también a sus “copias” rusas la Ural y a las Harley Davidson de los norteamericanos. En la postguerra la moto resurge como una opción muy interesante, pero en una doble vía como ya hemos comentado: Por un lado, se refuerza como vehículo practico, barato y sobre todo urbano, granas a Honda en Japón y a Vespa en Europa, pero por otro lado nace la “cultura motera”, aficionados que buscan las motos grandes por sus prestaciones y, sobre todo, sensaciones. La marca Honda nace en Japón y en 1958 lanza un scooter diseñado por el propio Sohichiro Honda y su socio, Takeo Fujisawa que se convierte en todo un éxito. Era una moto práctica, fiable, bien hecha y que mejoraba año tras año… Cuando estaba en el futuro, en el año 2025, comprobé que ya van fabricadas más de ¡100 millones de unidades!... no me extraña. Antes, en Europa, otro genio había tenido una idea genial: Aprovechando lo que había, entre otras cosas las ruedas de los trenes de aterrizaje de los aviones ya inservibles, creo un Scooter que hizo escuela… La “abeja” en italiano, Vespa, una moto que no solo era una alternativa al transporte, sino que, gracias a su calidad, y por qué no decirlo, también a su aparición en la película “Vacaciones en Roma” nada menos que con Audrey Hepburn de “paquete” y Gregory Peck a los mandos. Volvemos al momento actual. Y vemos que en 1960 Honda lanzó una moto que cambia las reglas del juego: la Honda CB750. Hasta ese momento las motos eran rudas, incluso sucias, poco fiables. La CB era una moto suave, incluso dulce, con mandos de mantequilla, silenciosa, rápida y muy bonita.

In this episode of Inspired Nonprofit Leadership, I break down why traditional budget approvals by nonprofit boards can actually hurt your organization—and what to do instead. I'll walk you through what “approval” really means, the unintended consequences of board-controlled budgets, and the simple shift to “budget confirmation” that leads to better planning, stronger oversight, and less drama. If budget season always feels like a battle, this one's for you. Episode Highlights 02:09 Understanding Budget Approval 03:19 The Role of the Board in Budget Approval 05:01 A New Approach: Confirming the Budget 07:19 Case Study: Successful Implementation Resource The Board Clarity Club A monthly membership for boards that provides training and live expert support to help your board have total clarity on how to be the best board possible.

So picking up where we left off from last week, let's talk about the last 5 of our 10 Tips to have the ride of your life! 6. Think About What You Want, Not What You Don't Want. In triathlon, it's easy to focus on the challenges—fear of failure, bad weather, or tough competition. Instead, focus on your goals and what you want to achieve. Visualize success, and let that vision propel you forward with energy and determination. 7. Drive with Purpose. Every training session, every race, every recovery day should have purpose behind it. Whether you're hitting the pool or doing a long run, align your effort with your bigger goal. When you have purpose, every action counts, and the journey becomes meaningful. 8. Passion is Contagious. Let your passion for triathlon inspire others. Passion is magnetic—it fuels your drive and motivates those around you. When you bring energy and enthusiasm to your training, your teammates and training partners will rise to the occasion as well. 9. Love Your Passengers. Your teammates, coaches, and support crew are key to your journey. Appreciate their support and invest in these relationships. Whether it's a word of encouragement from a fellow athlete or advice from your coach, they help carry the load and make the ride more enjoyable. 10. Drive Your Bus to the End with Gratitude. Be grateful for each mile, each step of progress, and each race you complete. Gratitude will help you stay grounded and focused, and it will help you celebrate your victories—big and small. Every part of the journey is worth appreciating. Action item: This week, focus on driving your energy bus with purpose. Identify one area of your training or life where you can apply one of the 10 rules to create a positive impact. Share your energy with your training partners and keep your vision clear. Get behind the wheel of your success, and drive with confidence!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Post Race Recovery Workouts Recovery Week Training - Recovery Swim Session Note This is a recovery swim for time.

Send us a textIf Brigid Brophy's The King of a Rainy Country had a soundtrack, it might include the soft patter of rain on a garret window, jazz drifting from a smoky cafe, the hum of a Vespa on narrow cobblestone streets … and the obnoxious griping of a few dozen uncultured Americans! As the description suggests, Brophy's 1956 novel has a little bit of everything  — atmosphere, nostalgia and poignancy mixed with subversive wit and madcap antics.

As triathletes, our mindset is just as crucial as our physical strength. In Jon Gordon's The Energy Bus, he shares 10 rules for driving your energy toward success. Let's apply those rules to your triathlon journey, turning obstacles into opportunities and maintaining the energy needed to reach your goals. 1. You're the Driver of Your Bus. You are in control of your journey. In triathlon, you choose how to show up each day—whether it's a tough workout, a challenging race, or life's distractions. Be the driver of your bus, not a passenger. Take charge of your mindset, your goals, and your daily actions. 2. Desire, Vision, and Focus Move Your Bus in the Right Direction. Set your sights on the finish line and keep your vision clear. Whether it's crossing the Ironman finish line or shaving time off your race, focusing on your desire will keep you motivated, even on the hard days. Vision will give your training purpose and drive. 3. Fuel Your Ride with Positive Energy. Just as a bus needs fuel to run, you need positive energy to keep going. Negative thoughts and self-doubt can derail you, but fueling your mind with positive affirmations, supportive teammates, and empowering self-talk will keep your wheels turning. 4. Invite People on Your Bus and Share Your Vision. You don't have to go on this journey alone. Surround yourself with people who believe in you and your goals. Whether it's your coach, training partners, or family, the energy of a supportive community can help you keep going when the road gets tough. 5. Don't Waste Your Energy on Those Who Don't Support You. You're going to encounter naysayers. Whether it's people questioning your goals or giving you negative feedback, don't waste time or energy on them. Stay focused on those who cheer you on and bring positivity to your life. Protect your energy—your race depends on it. 6. Think About What You Want, Not What You Don't Want. In triathlon, it's easy to focus on the challenges—fear of failure, bad weather, or tough competition. Instead, focus on your goals and what you want to achieve. Visualize success, and let that vision propel you forward with energy and determination. 7. Drive with Purpose. Every training session, every race, every recovery day should have purpose behind it. Whether you're hitting the pool or doing a long run, align your effort with your bigger goal. When you have purpose, every action counts, and the journey becomes meaningful. 8. Passion is Contagious. Let your passion for triathlon inspire others. Passion is magnetic—it fuels your drive and motivates those around you. When you bring energy and enthusiasm to your training, your teammates and training partners will rise to the occasion as well. 9. Love Your Passengers. Your teammates, coaches, and support crew are key to your journey. Appreciate their support and invest in these relationships. Whether it's a word of encouragement from a fellow athlete or advice from your coach, they help carry the load and make the ride more enjoyable. 10. Drive Your Bus to the End with Gratitude. Be grateful for each mile, each step of progress, and each race you complete. Gratitude will help you stay grounded and focused, and it will help you celebrate your victories—big and small. Every part of the journey is worth appreciating. Action item: This week, focus on driving your energy bus with purpose. Identify one area of your training or life where you can apply one of the 10 rules to create a positive impact. Share your energy with your training partners and keep your vision clear. Get behind the wheel of your success, and drive with confidence!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Race Week Builds Race Week Builds Bike Session Note For each effort, build from a moderate pace to threshold pace and hold for final 2' of each effort. Be sure to get full recovery between intervals. Don't overdo this session. Just priming for race day. Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 2 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4 Main Set 3 to 5 x 4 min @ Build to Z4 (4 min) Race Week Run Session Note Goal is to dial into race pace. Run comfortably and loose. Aim to hold race pace for the last 30 to 60 seconds of each effort. Don't go too hard. You're not going to gain much fitness in this single session, but you can certainly mess a lot up. Be conservative on this one. Warmup ~5-10 min of dynamic stretching and muscle activation Main Set 2 x 3 min @ Build to Race Pace (2 min jog) Balance of time @ Z2   Fun Segment: Race Week Roulette! Welcome to Race Week Roulette—the game where we test your triathlon instincts and race-day adaptability with all the curveballs race week can throw your way. Lost gear, mystery cramps, and weird dreams about forgetting your timing chip—nothing's off-limits. So buckle up and get ready to spin the wheel of race-week mayhem!    

In questa puntata ci tuffiamo negli anni '80 italiani, tra televisione a colori, telecomando, pubblicità martellante e nascita del consumismo di massa. È il decennio in cui la figura dell'operaio perde centralità, l'industria si automatizza e la società si riempie di nuovi oggetti, nuovi valori, nuovi sogni: dalla Vespa alla Fininvest, dal boom del fast food alla seduzione delle immagini.Ma non è solo un cambiamento culturale: è anche il tempo del debito pubblico che esplode, dell'avanzata del socialismo rampante di Craxi, della crisi della prima Repubblica che porterà a Tangentopoli e alla Seconda.Una cavalcata tra economia, politica e linguaggio della modernità, per capire come l'Italia è diventata ciò che oggi conosciamo. E perché, in fondo, dagli anni '80… non siamo mai davvero usciti.

Why does communication between executive directors and boards break down so often—even when everyone has the best intentions? In this episode of Inspired Nonprofit Leadership, host Sarah Olivieri unpacks the five biggest reasons board–ED communication goes sideways, from unclear decision-making lines to insecurity and information overload. With a blend of insight and tough love, Sarah shares what really causes the tension and what you can do to fix it—so your board and leadership can finally get on the same page and keep your nonprofit moving forward.

Natürlich bleibt so ein Hingucker wie der einzigartiger Bembelroller auf den hessischen Straßen und an öffentlichen Plätzen in Frankfurt und Umgebung nicht unbemerkt – Jens Koske wird damit regelmäßig angesprochen.

Did you do any type of gut training while also using Vespa?     She also posted some questions about Vespa on the I AM TriDot Facebook page:   For those of you using Vespa, I have some questions as I'm considering trying it. Are you eating a lower carb diet most days? How do you fuel your longer rides/runs now? How has your race nutrition changed? Is gut training still beneficial? Do you still carb load before a longer race?   Get Gritty Tip: Touch Your Dreams Every triathlete has a dream. It could be crossing the finish line of your first race, qualifying for a championship, or becoming a stronger version of yourself. But what sets great athletes apart is having a clear vision of that dream and working relentlessly to make it a reality. As Coach Ed Mylett says, "It takes leaders with vision to help people with dreams." You are the leader of your own journey, and your vision can guide you through every training session, every race, and every obstacle. Vision is the fuel that drives consistent action. It's easy to get caught up in the grind of training—times, distances, paces—but the real power lies in seeing beyond the day-to-day. When you have a vision, you're not just training for the next workout; you're training for your dream. That vision will push you through the tough days when you feel tired, frustrated, or uncertain. It reminds you that you are not just chasing times or placing in races—you are building the athlete you dream to be. What's your vision for your triathlon journey? Are you clear on your dream, or are you still figuring it out? Take time to reconnect with that vision—whether it's personal growth, achieving a specific race goal, or leading others. The power of vision is in its ability to inspire you to keep going when things feel tough. Get Gritty Action: Write down one thing that represents your ultimate dream as a triathlete. Whether it's a time goal, an experience, or a feeling, get specific about your vision and keep it front and center in your training. Share it with your community to hold yourself accountable. Keep your dream alive, and never stop selling it to yourself. Because when you have vision, you can achieve greatness.   TriDot Workout of the Week: Race Scenario Drills Welcome back to another segment of the TriDot Workout of the Week. We are going off script and covering a key part of your preparation for a race that is not related to your aerobic capacity or FTP. We are talking Bike Handling Skills for Race Day. This past weekend we covered the following Drills: Emergency Braking (crash in front of you) Braking Descending/Cornering (courses like Coeur d'Alene) How to bunny hop (a water bottle or pot hole) How to ride through and Aid Station and take nutrition Dropped chain recovery How to eat/drink/sunscreen while riding Draft Legal Pace Line / riding in a group Peeing on the bike    Fun Segment: Triathlon Fantasy Draft! Welcome to the Triathlon Fantasy Draft—the game where we build our dream team, race, or gear lineup one pick at a time. This is a no-holds-barred drafting showdown where everything in triathlon is up for grabs—gear, races, distances, legends, and even post-race snacks. No duplicates, no do-overs, and plenty of opinions. You'll love some of these picks… and you might want to roast others. Let the draft begin!     1. “Build Your Dream Race Day” Draft 1 item from each category: Swim location (for example, a lake, ocean, pool, etc.), Cozumel Bike course style (flat, hilly, technical, iconic), Pike's Peak APEX Run vibe (trail, city, beach, mountain) Post-race food:  Race-day weather 2. “All-Time Tri Gear Draft” Draft your gear setup: Wetsuit brand Bike (brand + style) Running shoes Must-have tech (watch, power meter, etc.) Nutrition product 3. “Triathlete Dream Team” Draft your ultimate relay team using any triathletes (pros, age groupers, historical icons): 1 swimmer 1 cyclist 1 runner 1 coach 1 wildcard (celebrity or fictional athlete)     Alright, the picks are in—but now it's your turn to weigh in! Who built the best fantasy lineup? Cast your vote and send us your own dream draft. And remember: there's no wrong answer—unless you drafted a treadmill as your race venue…   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it!

You'll learn how to break down projects, prioritize better, and create a visual workflow that helps you and your team focus on what matters most—while actually finishing what you start. If your to-do list is out of control, this episode is your roadmap to getting back on track (and maybe even enjoying your work again). Episode Highlights 01:16 Seven Steps to Do Less and Get More Done 01:54 Step-by-Step Breakdown 06:15 Bonus Tips and Conclusion Resource The Board Clarity Club A monthly membership for boards that provides training and live expert support to help your board have total clarity on how to be the best board possible. Learn More>> About Your Host Have you seen Casino Royale? That moment when Vespa slides in elegantly, opposite James, all charming smile, razor-sharp wit and mighty brainpower, and says, “I'm the money”? Well, your host, Sarah Olivieri has been likened to Vespa by one of her clients – not just because she's charming, beautiful and brainy– but because that bold statement “I'm the money” was, as it turned out, right ON the money.

Most people never discover how great they truly are—not because they lack talent, but because they never show up with their full effort. They hedge. They wait until they feel perfectly confident, perfectly prepared, perfectly safe. But here's the gritty truth: Confidence doesn't come first. Action does. You don't build belief by standing still. You build it through movement—through showing up, pushing past the urge to hold back, and choosing effort over ego. So this week, forget perfect. Forget ready. Just show up. Fully. Give it a real go—not halfway, not with excuses, but with honest effort. That's how grit is forged. That's how potential is revealed. You don't need to be fearless—you just need to be there.   TriDot Workout of the Week: Bike-Run Bricks   Welcome back to another segment of the TriDot Workout of the Week.

Let's kick it off with four quick hit questions to get to know each other just a little better!"      Questions: What are three words you would use to describe yourself? If you could be any animal, what would you be and why? What's your favorite word of the year—something that's been your theme or motivation?

200 Folgen und kein Stück klüger. So vieles haben wir gemeinsam erlebt: Lustiges, trauriges, monumentales, verstörendes, aber auch extrem banales. Und am Ende des Tages blieb immer die Erkenntnis: Irgendwie sind wir doch alle garnicht so verschieden. Ganz genau, auch Taylor Swift muss mal sche**en, auch Caesar war nur ein Fuckboy und auf Inlinern, sehen wir nunmal alle einfach ziemlich uncool aus. It`s Showtime! Auf die nächsten 200 Jahre!

#491 IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder Race Recon Welcome Welcome to Episode #491 of the 303 Endurance Podcast. We're your hosts Coaches Rich Soares and April Spilde. Thanks for joining us for another week of interviews, coaching tips and discussion.   It's IRONMAN Boulder 70.3 Central up in here! It seems like every day I'm bumping into another athlete who is registered to race Boulder 70.3. We have six athletes between us that are racing.    We will see all of you racing when you arrive at Boulder Res before the sun comes up. Whether you are racing, volunteering or spectating, we have the 411 on Boulder 70.3 with Race Director, Brian Bohrer for the interview style race recon.   April, two questions for you: 1) what are you looking forward to most with Boulder 70.3? 2) what's one word to describe how you feel about the G2G Swim Focus camp this weekend?   Hey Rich! Way to lead out from the jump! With Boulder 70.3, I'm most excited to be in the Transition area with you and seeing our athletes get hyped! Peter will also be there taking photos of all the action! Special shoutout to my athlete Gabbi, who will be competing in her first 70.3, and to Sasha as well!   The one word I'd use to describe how I feel is “ECSTATIC” which I think is a good mix between excited and static (think like electricity), supercharged to get gritty with you and our athletes this weekend!   Show Sponsor: UCAN UCAN created LIVSTEADY as an alternative to sugar based nutrition products.

Please join me by signing up for the Transition Area early shift. It's a dang early morning, but you are also done relatively early and will have a blast! https://ironman.volunteerlocal.com/volunteer/?id=88391&job_name=transition%20t1   Get Gritty Tip: Our Well-being Lies in Our Actions Marcus Aurelius If your happiness relies on your accomplishments, what happens if fate intervenes you don't? What you do achieve everything you set out to achieve and nobody is impressed? We should take pleasure from our actions, rather from the results that come from them. When we celebrated Paul Hunziker's success and his marathon PR, we weren't focused on the outcome. Yes that was the PR was the click bait, but the interview there were more letters and words in “The Making of a” PR. The making is the point. The ambition should not be to win but to play with a full heartful effort.  TriDot Workout of the Week: Broken 300's   Welcome back to another segment of the TriDot Workout of the Week, where we break down a featured session designed to sharpen your edge and build specific skills that move the needle. This week, we're diving into the Broken 300's — a swim session that's as much about mental focus as it is about physical execution. “Broken” sets like this one force you to stay dialed in. You're not just logging meters — you're working precision, intensity control, and technique under fatigue. From Zone 4 intervals to strategic drill work and controlled builds, this set challenges your ability to switch gears, stay intentional, and swim with purpose from start to finish. So grab your goggles, shake off the autopilot, and let's break down what makes this workout so effective. First, "Broken" swim sets consist of one or more rounds of efforts totaling a specific distance such as Broken 300s. Each 300 effort may differ in intensity, technique, and/or number of rests within the effort. In addition to building fitness, these sets force you to maintain mental focus and be intentional with your intensity and technique. Main Set 2 x 150 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 @ Z2 (20 sec) 2 x 100 Drill/Swim Choice by 50 (20 sec) 3 x 100 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 Build to Z4 (20 sec) 2 x 100 Drill/Swim Choice by 50 (20 sec) 4 x 75 @ Z4 (20 sec) 300 @ Z2     Cool Down Balance of time @ Z2 and/or repeat warmup drills as time permits. That wraps up this week's TriDot Workout of the Week. Remember, Broken 300's are more than just a swim set — they're a test of your ability to stay present, stay sharp, and push through structured discomfort. As always, don't just get through the workout — get something from it. Train with purpose, and bring that focus to your next race or challenge. Okay Rich, it's now time for our NEW fun segment! Are you ready? Fun Segment: Limerick Lane! Welcome to Limerick Lane: Guess That Swim Word! — the game where I drop a swim-themed limerick with one key word missing, and it's up to you to guess what it is. These little rhymes may be fun-sized, but don't let them fool you — your swim knowledge and wit are about to be tested!     Game Instructions: Each limerick ends with a missing word that you have to guess. I will give one hint if you're stumped. Correct guesses earn you bragging rights… and maybe a virtual gold swim cap (or green)!   A triathlete swam in the bay, But panicked and lost his way. He stopped mid-course, And swam back with force, Using only his arms — no _____. Hint: What does a pull buoy do?   A coach with a stopwatch so fine, Shouted “Faster! You've got to make time!” With flip turns that stick, You'd better be quick, If you want to improve your next _____. Hint: Swim time.   A swimmer once started aghast, But found that her energy had passed. By lap number four, She could sprint no more, She'd fallen prey to going out _____. Hint: Classic pacing mistake.   He dove in with barely a glance, Ignoring the circle swim dance. He zigged and he zagged, The swimmers all nagged, And never gave sharing a _____. Hint: Good swimmers take turns in the lane!   Closing: Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed, and enjoy the endurance journey!

From Scott Derue   Dear Triathlon `Ohana,         Over the past year, the question I have been asked the most has been about the future of the IRONMAN World Championship.  For the first time in its history, the IRONMAN World Championship moved to split locations in 2023 for two reasons.  Significant numbers of deferrals from cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic required two days of racing, and a 2-day, single-location format was tried in 2022 and found to be unsustainable for the local community in Kona, Hawai`i.  With a deep commitment to and care for the Kona community, combined with the rich triathlon history and iconic sporting legacy of Nice, France, the decision was made to hold the men and women's races in different locations.   In addition, aligned with IRONMAN's goal of growing the sport of triathlon, it was expected that split locations for men and women's racing would lead to greater exposure for all and more women participating in the sport of triathlon.  Since first announcing that format change, we have been meticulous in monitoring and reviewing athlete behavior, collecting feedback, and conducting extensive research.  Putting the needs and preferences of our athletes first – and thinking about the long-term growth of triathlon – we are excited to announce that, beginning in 2026, the IRONMAN World Championship will return to its roots of Hawai'i, with Kona hosting a reimagined single day of racing, bringing women and men together for the IRONMAN World Championship.  Upcoming Programming - Our March focus will be on running.   May 10 - Athlete Highlight with Paul Hunziker May 13 - Webinar Boulder 70.3 Race Recon May 17 - Podcast Boulder 70.3 Race Recon May 24 - Swim Camp Highlights and interviews May 31 - Bike Camp Highlights and interviews   G2G Spring Training Camp May 17-18 - Swim Focus in C.Springs and Chatfield May 24-25 - Bike Focus - Chatfield/Chatfield May 31-June 1 Run Focus - Boulder/Boulder We are 70% of capacity   https://grit2greatnessendurance.com/training-camp   So whether you're processing the big Kona news or locking in your training calendar for our spring camp season, one thing's for sure—there's no shortage of exciting movement in our sport.

We mark the passing of Pope Francis by asking: is there such a thing as "Catholic Economics"? If so, what is it, and what strain of Catholic economics did the Pope represent? We start with a lad stopped by the Italian cops on a Vespa in Rome, and a most unusual and uplifting conversation with the Pope, Bono, and yours truly. Yeah, for real. We explore liberation theology, the roots of Franciscan banking, and the common and deeply embedded DNA of Catholic social teaching in the economic policy of Catholic countries, despite widespread secularism. By the way, I did pay the fine! Join the gang! https://plus.acast.com/s/the-david-mcwilliams-podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
