Coaching Tip of the Week:

 

Boulder 70.3 Insights: While volunteering in Transition at Boulder 70.3 this past weekend, I observed other athletes make some very common mistakes and I want to share them with you so you don't make the same mistakes at your race.

 

There were several swim DNFs due to lack of open water swim preparation. I know all of you are well aware of the importance of preparing based on the participation we had at Chatfield reservoir in May.

 

There were several athletes that showed up with no water bottles assuming there would be water bottles at transition or at an early aid station. The first bike aid station on most courses is at least 10 miles into the bike ride, which means these athletes started their race getting into a dehydration hole. Be sure to read the athlete guide and show up informed and prepared.

 

Several athletes dropped their nutrition or lost it (including pros). This is one of several reasons to rehearse the nutrition and equipment just like on race day. Know how those pockets on your race kit work (or don't) and have a way to secure your nutrition.

 

Training Camp:

Sunday - Bike course, lunch, OWS, beer garden bus

Monday - Left hand canyon, run drills with TO and Rinny, strength and mobility with Erin Carson

Tuesday - easy run
