Summary

We got bib numbers to the 2021 Tour De No Pants before talking about the physiological importance of practicing playfulness in training, an update on the journey with family planning (we are at the fun part!), why walking is trail running, and key principles for thinking about training heading into 2022 (particularly with the distribution of intensity). Science is sometimes sexy metaphorically, and on this episode it's also sexy literally. Happy holidays everyone, we appreciate you all so much! WOOHOO!

Woohoo! Welcome to the Summer Coldplay Podcast. We are so happy to be with you today.

0:04.7

Happy Tuesday!

0:05.6

And it's Tuesday of a holiday week. I'm feeling that big holiday energy right now.

0:10.1

Yeah, Merry Christmas everyone. We love you all so much. Thanks for the gift of being on this

0:14.2

journey with us. Seriously, Merry Christmas. Happy holidays. I don't know, I feel like I've

0:18.4

been feeling this holiday build for a long time. I feel like every week in December, I'm like,

0:22.9

it's the holidays. We are celebrating. I don't know, there's something special about this year.

0:26.4

Maybe? I don't know. It's tantric celebration, just building up to a crescendo, which will

0:31.0

be coming this Saturday. Yeah, it is an incredible time of year. I feel like especially

0:36.6

after how exhausting 2021 was, it's just kind of nice to be getting to a reset point where we can

0:42.4

stop, put our hands on our knees, and chill for a minute, just like the end of a hill interval.

0:46.5

That's so true. And then be like, Santa is coming on Saturday. Oh, shit.

0:52.0

Tantric Santa. That's what I was going for. Oh, that needs to be a sketch or something for the

and no audience due to Omicron. Yeah, I guess this year, yeah, SNL had no audience this week.

1:08.0

That's something we haven't planned on talking about. It's that Omicron is sweet and the

1:11.5

freaking nation. We had a really interesting window with swap with our athletes and had almost

1:16.7

saw no COVID for a really long time, which I think probably shows almost all of our athletes I

1:22.0

assume are vaccinated probably close to 100%. And so it was working pretty well. Now we are seeing

1:27.7

COVID all over the place, all at once. So fortunately not severe, nothing bad, but SNL hosted or had

1:34.8

their episode all of a sudden after an outbreak with no audience, just a few people. It was very
