Alright so I'm trying out a new method, I don't think it's revolutionary or anything, in fact I believe I read about something similar somewhere. I'm hoping that someone who has far more knowledge and expereince than I can give me some guidance on this.... Weary is the path that does not challenge.

I've recently been experiencing much better swims. I feel like I'm actually making progress on the position and I'm able to swim much longer and faster than even just a few weeks ago. To tri or not to tri - that's not a question at all!

I'm not sure how much this question makes sense, as it depends on the course, but I'm wondering what the average bike speeds are in a given race. More specifically, what is the average speed for the top 20%, middle 60% and bottom 20% of the pack for each of the triatholon distances (Spring, Oly, 1/2IM, and IM).

It’s pretty unanimous that the bike is most athletes’ favorite part of triathlon. Whether they are fast, slow or middle of the packers most people enjoy the exhilarating feeling of flying down the road in a full aero tuck watching the scenery pass them at a bullet’s pace.

A challenging speed/plyometric/core course is a great way to introduce some spice and variety into your triathlon training program, giving your mind a mental break from the long base training sessions
