What's up, Motivators, Taryn here. What if you could get training from one of the best triathletes in the world?

Well, you actually can. One of our coaches who wrote the duathlon plans that are in our

Motive training app is Libbs Mitchell, Olivia Mitchell. Now, Olivia is a phenomenal athlete herself. She just finished 19th in the

world in the half Iron Man World Championships in St. George in 2022. Fantastic performance.

Now, the reason that we got Libs to write the duathlon plans isn't because she's such a phenomenal

athlete and writes

amazingly sophisticated endurance training plans. We got her to write them because she

specializes in writing training plans that help real people achieve their goals in endurance sports.

She writes very accessible plans, very realistic plans, plans that reflect that the average

person might not be able to do the 20, 30 or 40 hour training weeks that a lot of professional

athletes do. And every single hour that you put into your training plan needs to have a positive

effect. You have to be really efficient with your

training plans. I've reviewed all of her training plans every single workout. I've been through

multiple times and they're great training plans. Now with her having such a great experience and a

good performance at St. George Half Iron Man World Championships, I thought we get her on to the podcast

to talk a little

bit about that race buildup and what us regular people can take from her buildup and apply to our

training. What can we take from that top level training plan distill it down to people that

have jobs and families and real life commitments.

So what are the pieces that she found to be tremendously helpful?

So we got her on to the podcast to talk about that.
