Summary

We start with the pros and cons of the new Ironman Chattanooga bike course. We look at whether or not these courses are really that crowded. We talk unorthodox training as a strategy for health and long term enjoyment of the sport. We also look at Ironman branding and our C26 community. We get into the challenges of late and early season races. We talk about finding what you really like and how that can be the fuel. And we get into getting better in the off season. What are the goals, and how do you make them work.
