-Followup comments on cortisone and ice baths.
-Best tactics for training in the heat / training for a hot race? Heat acclimatization, etc.
-Should runners switch to perceived exertion instead of heart rate on hot days, or have an allowance for a higher rate?
-Should you do a practice 70.3 for full Ironman training to dial in nutrition, pace, etc?
-Healing from an Achilles issue and how to know when to start running and training for triathlon again?
-Our opinions on cycling saddles, including brands/types we like, comfort, etc.
-Commuting to work on cyclocross bike- add additional weight (5 lbs.?) to even make those commuting days more fruitful?
-and more.
Awesome, thanks guys! I agree, I was trying to hold form, my legs felt heavy, as I just finished a 30 mile moderate pace bike ride 15min. prior to the video capture and basically just walked to the sidewalk w/o a run warmup. I’ll take off my shirt and wear shorter shorts rolled down next time! 😛 Hahaha!
