Today we have Coach David Tilbury Davis on the show to help us on Episode number 4 of the Road to Roth Training series!
So for the first time listeners, a bit of a backstory here with the Road to Roth Series – at the beginning of August I announced that I’ll be doing my first full distance triathlon at Challenge Roth in 2020, and since then, I found that a lot of listeners were actually on a similar path; whether it was with Roth or another race; but they too were on their crazy journey to their first full distance triathlon and looking forward to hearing content specific to the full distance!
Of course, never having actually done the distance before, I figured everyone could benefit the most in a series where I interview top professional triathletes and coaches that will be able to provide a ton of training tips specific to the full distance as well as give us the motivation and insight we need to help us maximize our performances come race day!
Now to introduce David, he has been coaching both professional and age group triathletes since 1995 and has helped his athletes achieve 3 world titles, 11 national titles, multiple regional championship titles and has helped numerous age group triathletes get their qualifying slots for the IRONMAN 70.3 & 140.6 world Championships.
David is also the Coach of Cody Beals who recently just smashed the IMMT course record which was set last year by Cody himself in his IRONMAN Debut. but this year not only did he crush it but he also set the first ever Sub 8 hour performance at IMMT. Cody will also be doing his KONA debut this October, so him and David have been hard at work fine tuning and getting ready for this race which you’ll hear about in this podcast!
In today’s episode, David also talks to us about the pros and cons of age groupers self-coaching versus getting a coach, how to find a coach that best suits your goals and style, and goes over some great training tips and advice, so I hope you guys enjoy this podcast and be sure to take advantage of your long bike sessions by lining up a few episodes to play for constant workout motivation!
