Today we talk about how you should “feel” when you train. How much is too much, how much is not enough. Is 70.3 shape good enough to do a short Ironman build? Also, the “Ironman freak out” and how most athletes translate their panic into over training. Can you be in better Ironman shape than 70.3 shape? And finally we look at IRONMAN Wisconsin’s move to June and how that will affect athletes and the race itself. Topics: The IRONMAN FREAK OUT Who would be our ideal guest? When do you start your build?
