Sandwiched between the swim and run, the triathlon bike portion is the longest discipline in both time and distance. With nearly 50% of your race time spent on two wheels, this is where your hard work pays off. But not enough time in the saddle will cost you valuable time and energy during the bike and run. When it comes to triathlon gear and equipment, cycling is the most expensive discipline.

A a writer, it is the best outlet for t

I've had a busy last two weeks but it has been all so rewarding. With a trip to Charlotte, NC and then Roanoke Virginia, followed by a trip to Lexington, KY the following week, I've had the opportunity to speak to a wide range of individuals about nutrition, education and sport - newbie triathletes, fitness enthusiasts, collegiate athletes, coaches, strength and conditioning coaches, exercise science students and so much more. It's truly been a dream come true to be able to give back to others. With so many people wanting to improve health, change body composition or improve performanc (and in honor of my new book  Athlete to Triathlete ), I’d like to give you a few tips on how you can get the most out of your exercise or training journey without being all or nothing. -------------------------------- The sport of running, swimming, biking or triathlon isn’t reserved only for the elite or as a means to an end to lose weight. It’s much more than clocking the miles
