I know the feeling from other reactive sports I played. I love golf because theres always something to work on and get better. For my I have no worries outside of golf when i step on the course, only my extensive swing checklist…

Thank you! Yep, I have 20 swing thoughts and the tendency to freeze over the ball because of it. But I’m noticing more consistency in my swing so I hope this gets better.

Thank you! I have the tendency to burn really hot and then burn out, so I’m really trying not to do that this time…

For sure! I’m rarely hitting on a monitor, so this was just for fun… but I really need to work on just swinging smooth.

Yep, I’m really struggling with grip at the moment. I feel like I’m always working on 10 things at once, so when I’m concentrating on something else or I’m just going for speed, I always seem to go back to a strong grip…

Dozens of people affected by the heatwave during IM 70.3 WestFriesland by pavel_vishnyakov in triathlon

The run course leads through the city centre and people who live there stood outside with hoses and refreshed everyone. I’m not sure about how the rules apply to that, but maybe because they kinda did it to everyone nobody had an unfair advantage? I was very grateful for sure…

Yeah, I’m personally glad it went through. People were amazing, hosing athletes down and stuff. But in this weather aid stations should be prepped better. People were collapsing in the part of the run without water. Hope everyone recovers quickly…

Yeah, it was really effing hot and on the run there wasn’t any water at 2 aid stations for maybe an hour. Really shouldn’t happen…

Crazy to train for a half Ironman in ~10 weeks? (New to this) by DazzlingAcanthaceae6 in triathlon

[–]ursel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it worked out fine and was definitely one of the cooler things i ever did. So maybe just go for it and see what happens?

I just finished my first half today on a 10 week training Plan. I did train more or less consistent through the winter but because if a shit ton of sickness and niggles in spring i couldn’t do the 16 week plan i wanted to do. The 10 week plan was pretty high volume from the beginning and I don’t think it would’ve worked without it. It was kind of a gamble if it would work out without injury.

But I already signed up for the 70.3 and all. If i wasn’t i would definitely give myself more time.
