Trimarni Coaching and Nutrition

Last year I was unable to participate in the HITS ocala half ironman   with Karel because of a last minute speaking event with  Oakley Women  in San Diego.  Even though this is a smaller event series (and about 2.5 hours from us in Jacksonville), I really wanted the opportunity to race in an early season half ironman event to test my fitness, to discover weaknesses and most of all, to shake out those nerves that always come with the first race of the season. I ended up transferring my 2013 entry to 2014 before we planned our 2014 racing schedule so once we had planned our key races: -St Croix 5/4 -Raleigh 70.3 6/1 (Karel only) -IM Austria 6/29 -IMWI 9/7 I wasn't sure how a half IM would work for my body just four weeks before my A-race of the season (another 70.3) but I knew that with the right "race smart" plan, I would be able to perform during the race without a taper and to also recover well from the race....so long that I was going in...
