Summary
More awesome questions from the listeners. We start by talking about what we think are the best tri-kits and what to think about before getting yours. We look at injuries and why some people tend to be more injury prone than others. We talk about getting more comfortable on your bike from being clipped in to climbing and descending. We ask each other which race we'd do the rest of our lives if we only had one choice. There's a good discussion on nutrition including our standard approaches to how we eat on the daily. On your left etiquette in training and racing. How to keep your hunger at bay, and is it ever a good idea to just take a week off in the middle of the season?
