Summary

You always hear about "race strategy" but what does it really mean when applied to your actual training? Today, we look at how you can set a race plan that you can ACTUALLY HOLD during a race.  We give you a different perspective on "what to count" from your long rides, when you should make critical decisions within a race, and some of the biggest mistakes you can make on race day.

- How to get the most out of long rides
- How to know when you can PUSH in a race
- How to feel your best on race morning
- Understanding what you can really hold on race day
- The biggest mistake you can make on the bike
- The nutrition puzzle and why WHEN you take calories makes a BIG difference for your GI issues
- The best way to ruin your race
- When and how to make critical In-Race decisions
- Where you likely make the biggest mistakes in your race
- Making SMART vs. IMPULSE decisions
- Visualizing your race
