We follow up last week’s topic of setting race goals with a discussion on assessing your body and listening to the “good sore” feeling.

Running with the Pack 45: Bike Competence, Equipment, and a Million Brandon References

Allan| May 9, 2009 8:51 pm

This week, I talk a bit about my ongoing triathlon training. Although I didn’t plan it, I mention Brandon (from Brandon’s Marathon Podcast) about a dozen times on this podcast. That’s okay. He has been my inspiration to do my first triathlon and has guided me through equipment and training, so it seems appropriate.

The major topic this week is the cycle-thon, which was my first group ride (for charity of course). It was a beautiful day. My bike was running nicely. I was having a blast – until – EPIC WIPEOUT! Helmets are a good thing!
