Simon Ward, The High Performance Human Triathlon Podcast
Health & Fitness
Whenever I ask triathletes about nutrition I’m always fascinated when they're more focussed on what happens on race day than they are on their general day-to-day nutrition.
Having said that, one of the biggest factors leading to athletes falling short of their race day expectations is poor nutrition and hydration strategy.
In today's podcast, I’m chatting with Andy Blow from Precision Hydration and Nutrition about this exact subject. You may think it's an odd time when races are so far away. However, you'll understand more when Andy shares the key fact that you need to actually practice your race day strategy well in advance of your event.
The second issue for athletes is that either they have no real strategy, or they use the same strategy for each event regardless of changes in duration, intensity, weather, or course.
In the conversation, Andy will share some of the lessons he and his team have learned from over 100 case studies with athletes at a variety of different events in the last 2 years, and how you can apply these lessons at your next big race.
