Lessons from Superbowl 54 - a podcast by Siri Lindley and Rebekah Keat, Team Sirius Tri Club

This week, Bek and Siri talk about SuperBowl 2020 and the lesson in the game. Remember that there's nothing perfect and you can get close to it, but rarely. There's only 2 things you can control, your attitude and your effort. Don't judge yourself in the process, just continue giving it 100% of your effort and focus. Your mindset is everything -- whatever you think you are, you are....

Q&A Portion:

What to do if you miss the 10-week off season schedule because of a cold and surgery? Get a coach to redo your training plan and customize it to your race schedule. You definitely need to start the basics, but you need a customized plan.

Tips to make the most of your challenging climates: Long sessions is to make sure you're practicing your hydrations. That's the key to all your sessions. Make sure you're also doing runs on the treadmill and bike on the turbo. Don't exhaust yourself to do everything, but focus on hydrating and focus on your nutrition. Also do the challenging sessions inside!

Training while your sick will make yourself even sicker, longer.  It's better for your body to get some rest then get back to it. You won't lose that much fitness. There was a study where athletes did 4-weeks of NOTHING and they only lost between 4-8% max. It's not worth worrying about it. Remember, training with a chest infection is not only uneasy, but it's truly dangerous.

How often should you practice swimming with a wetsuit? Maybe 10x before a race. Just don't wear it in the pool with chlorine too much. Be sure to rinse it if you do practice in the pool...but practice with it so you can get used to it.
