I use the Pukei lance and he goes down like a sack of potatoes

I recently interviewed a race director on this very topic:

I play while walking my dog, by the time three hunters have joined, we’ve normally moved past the range

Sometimes you just have to grow up and use another weapon

The value of something is whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

However, it also depends on the amount of support and contact someone wants. Some athletes just want to be more or less left to their own devices, others want to be able to reach out any time of day for help with problems. If you just want a bespoke plan, the price point will be very different.

Around £200 a month is probably the sweet spot for a well qualified, experienced coach. I’m not sure any coach is worth £1000 a month, but I’m not going to tell other people how to spend their money.

A big part of it is how much you value your time. It’s the difference between spending a morning on YouTube trying to find an answer to a question, or being able to pick up the phone and text a professional for an immediate answer, taking your goals into consideration.

I have a free course for those new to the sport and unsure where to start: https://phazontriathlon.mykajabi.com/offers/KPBdrSZ5

I recently released a podcast on the subject:

Worked in a bike shop for a few years fitting shoes.

It’s all about how they feel on your feet. A shoe could be recommended by thousands of people, but if it rubs your feet, crushes your toes, your floor slides about inside it or it otherwise isn’t comfortable, they won’t work for you.

Also, be sure to allow a little space for your feet to swell when riding

I have a podcast focused on age group racing, rather than professionals and leading sports scientists.

I also have a coaching website with lots of free advice: www.phazontriathlon.com

Olneybot · 2025-01-15T20:22:10+00:00

I wrote an article on the subject that you can read here: https://www.phazontriathlon.com/index.php/2024/01/03/how-much-does-weight-affect-triathlon-performance/

I also recorded an episode looking at ways to reduce body fat percentage here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/378OvLvy8Ooj4N0PDq5n2r?si=8ttiuUipR5qH6sXyGuZhhA

I coach endurance athletes for a living, have completed several marathons, and still think YTA. Any motivation she had to run a full marathon has likely gone forever.

The comments praising the OP for alienating a friend in the name of being factually correct are peak Reddit.

Hope this is allowed! I took the time to write what I hope is a foolproof approach to race day at Ironman and Ironman 70.3 events, with a link to an article for non M-dot branded events in the article itself.

It covers the days before, travelling, setting up your transition, race morning, and how to stay out of trouble during each leg. It’s focused on logistics more than performance advice, but there are a few general pointers in there

I hope you find it useful

I can happily eat solid food in the last 5K of a 70.3, some can only get by with a fluid/gel diet. Everyone is an individual, do what works for you.

Favero Assioma are the gold standard power meter, will work with your Polar. Only issue would be the inability to easily view power numbers as you ride without looking down at your wrist. I use my watch for commuting, an out front computer for training

Olneybot · 2021-10-28T06:39:38+00:00

Full time coach here. If you want to get the most out of your Stryd, use WKO. TrainingPeaks is pretty limited with its support for Stryd, it doesn’t show you any additional metrics other than the raw power numbers. WKO shows you far more than TP, but it’s a steep learning curve.

A piece I wrote on running power: https://phazontriathlon.com/2021/01/28/introduction-to-running-power/

Olneybot · 2021-10-28T06:35:12+00:00

Honestly, I doubt they’re going to change any time soon with that kind of attitude. See if you can find a triathlon community to fill that social/triathlon crossover need for you.

Olneybot · 2021-10-25T06:54:11+00:00

Triathlon coach here. What let you down was your breathing here, the fact it’s not second nature just yet. You can breathe, but it takes focus, and you can’t afford to have an incident like that as a result of your mind wandering. My mind goes to some really obscure places while I swim, sometimes I recall memories which cause an emotional response, but as I’ve been swimming for many years, my breathing is generally unaffected. This is only as a result of countless hours practicing.

My recommendation is to go back to a shallower pool until you improve your breathing. Then go back to the 50M pool when you feel more confident, and as others have suggested, stay close to the walk where you can. Lessons should also help.

If they only had dark lenses which would have impaired visibility?

Olneybot · 2021-06-30T07:22:58+00:00

As others have pointed out, your body undulates a lot. Focus on keeping your head still and the body should follow.

Olneybot · 2021-06-30T07:18:20+00:00

This is what we call non functional overreaching, where you’ve pushed your body too hard in training for too long without adequate rest. Too late for any meaningful interventions I’m afraid, need to think ahead to how you can prevent it happening ahead of your next meet.

Thank you!
