Late Season Racing
#503 Late Season Racing
Welcome
Welcome to Episode #503 of the 303 Endurance Podcast. We're your hosts Coaches Rich Soares and April Spilde. Thanks for joining us for another week of news, coaching tips and discussion.
We’re racing Boulder Sunset by BBSC Endurance this weekend. As the name implies, the season is starting to sunset here in Colorado with just about 4 more weeks of triathlon racing. We’re talking all things “late season racing” today!.
Hey Rich and Lauren, yes, really looking forward to Boulder Sunset tomorrow and racing with Sasha and Hunter as well. This is my second time doing this race and my goal is to beat last year’s time of 1:59:05. RaceX is predicting 1:44:48, so let’s see what we can do!
Lauren - I’ll be racing on Sunday with my athlete Veron at the Medford Lakes sprint triathlon. And my athlete Laura is racing her first Olympic distance at the Chicago Triathlon on Sunday, as well!
