Summary

The heat is back but the stress never left and it’s a good reminder. We talk open water swim and your pace and if it’s right and if training in the pool is better than OW. Are you wiped out or just fueling poorly. What happens when you face the Training Peaks Hell Week Council? Are metrics making us lazy? Maybe you just need to open up your legs. The most important variable when it comes to volume and or intensity. Re-testing your run, plus, will Chattanooga have a new bike course? If so, what do you do?

Topics:

Heat and cortisol
2:45 swim pace in OW
Chattanooga bike course change?
Run course??
Training Peaks Hell Week Council
Wiped out or bad hydration/fueling?
Carb intake two days ago
Metrics make us lazy
Power meter or smart trainer?
How much is too much
Opening up the legs
Fast twitch vs slow twitch
IM Kansas?
Coaching or plans?
Volume and intensity - absorbing is what matters
When’s a good time to re-test your run
