Ben Greenfield got stuck in the Oakland airport with no internet during this call, so Kerry Sullivan rocked your triathlon questions solo, including:
Hey guys- I am racing the Halfmax Half Iron championships this coming Saturday. 2 weeks later, I am racing Austin 70.3 half Ironman. Ben, you gave me some great advice for training to stay fit between the 2 races, but any tips for what can I do from the moment I cross the finish line to speed and make my recovery as best as possible? Would an intesnse sport massage be a good idea the next, or 2 days after? I also have a 6-hour drive home after the race- so any advice considering that?
Hi guys, I’ve now completed my first Ironman, and am signed up again for next year’s IMC in August 2011. I had a very successful last season, and after a relatively easy month I’m ready to get going again in October. I want to capitalize on my speed gains from this year and get faster for next year. However, I’m afraid if I start my too much intensity, I could burn out or injure myself. Any advice on how to find balance with this?
