If you live in the Nashville area, make plans to attend! I will be hosting a Free Bike Skills Clinic on October 16th for anyone interested in feeling more confident on their bike.

The Big Day is designed to simulate race day. This means that the athlete will give up an entire day to training. Not only will they swim, bike, and run, but they will be forced to have recovery periods and dial in nutrition. If they get any of it wrong, they’ll know by the end of the day.

It’s been three weeks since Age Group Nationals, and the unfortunate positive Covid test for Kelly. I’m happy to report in that Kelly is now back to training. In this post I’ll discuss his time off of training and what we are doing now that he is able to work out again.

I wanted to take some time to actually explain how you can calculate your sweat rate at home, and get a fairly accurate account of the fluids you are losing during a training session, and what you need to rehydrate properly. Knowing this information is useful for a number of reasons, the biggest being it can help you start to dial in your race day nutrition and hydration intake.
