Today we stare down the barrel of brutally honest reflection on the training we've done for a particular race. How do we genuinely solve our problems. Were we lulled to sleep by peaking too early? Did you confuse a weakness for a strength? Did you run too far and not enough? Midway through this cast Robbie asks Mike a question that may entirely change the way he trains. Topics: How do you feel after races? When we get a case of the BUT'S? Are you energized by the challenge? Getting better with age? Problem solving as a coach Not being distracted by what didn't work Are shorter builds better? 70.3 vs Ironman Training Peak Phase 5-7 Weeks? 1/2 marathon vs. an easy 17 miles Peaking too early? False sense of security Interval cycling Running Frequency vs. Distance Double Ride Weekends are King Long runs overrated? Getting Tired Doesn't Mean You're fitter When more training makes you slower How to appropriately challenge yourself 35% Long Run formula Are you mistaking your strength?
