Our podcast is here to educate, inspire, and entertain. We'll talk all things

triathlon with expert coaches and special guests. Join the conversation and let's improve

together. Together. Welcome to the TriDOT podcast, everyone. Today is going to be a great one.

We've got a doozy of a topic.

We all know the feeling of pulling up your training plan for the week and realizing it's

time for your assessments.

In our training, it is super important to consistently benchmark our progress.

An assessment week allows Tridot's optimization engine to know exactly

what you are capable of as an athlete. To talk about this today, I've got two of the best minds

from Tridot headquarters here to walk us through all things assessment week. First up is coached

John Mayfield. John is a six-time Iron Man finisher who has coached athletes to finishers at literally every Iron Man in the United States. He also serves as the director of athlete services for Tridot. John, you ready to take a deep dive into assessment week today? Ready to dive.

Next up in the studio is Tridot founder and CEO Jeff Boer. Jeff is a four-time Iron Man finisher who is the chief architect behind Tridot's

Insight Optimization Technology.

He has coached numerous professional triathletes as well as hundreds of age groupers to podium finishes

as well as personal PRs.

Jeff, thanks for coming on.

Absolutely.

This is going to be fun.

And who am I? I am Andrew, the average triathlete voice of the people and captain of the middle

of the pack. Listen today, we're going to warm up by talking about volunteering at a race near you.

Then we'll head to the main set where we talk all things assessment week.
