You smell that?
No, not that, the other thing.
Smells like… triathlon training! Yea, baby, it is that time of the year where all good triathletes get all serious about spending time on their trainer, running obscene distances on the weekend, obsessing about the unlost 5 lbs, and generally getting ready for the upcoming season.
This year we’ve purchased the cool new gadget and late last year—just before the Marine Corps Marathon—we signed up with Endurance Nation (EN). So far so good! Coach Patrick is supplying workout that will allow me to achieve at both the DeSoto Triple-T and IM-Switzerland. Hey, if I manage to score at this year’s NYC Marathon lottery, they’ll have my back there too.
EN is also about more than training:
- There is also a budding community setting itself up on their forum that is great place to both give and get training type questions answered)
- EN podcasts have consistently provided nifty information on training
- Robust library of articles covering everything from how to lift weights to race-day strategies
Special shout-out here for the podcast/seminar series on Training with Power. It is kicking buttocks. Tons of good information about what the power meter is trying to tell you, how to get it to say what you want, and how to get the most out of power meter on race day. I mentioned the “achieve” at IM above?! Yea, this is a big part of it.
Hard to say enough good stuff about EN and I have high hope for the upcoming season. So, if you’re looking for A+ training for triathlon or running, stop by www.endurancenations.us and have a look around.
