Today we start with why 70.3's are gaining popularity and roll that into training with more intensity. We look at how to explore higher zones and how to work that into your overall training. We talk about why it’s important to remind yourself what it feels like and why you have to train it to truly know it. We get into why it can be more stressful to train alone and why it’s important to swim, bike, and run with people faster than you. We talk about racing as a compass and look at how to test the boundaries and flirt with slightly unnerving workouts.
