About this episode
Sadly, this is a must-listen episode for every runner and triathlete: Coach Liz Waterstraat shares the sweaty details of her recent 70.3 triathlon, during which temps climbed into the high 90s! Then, in conversation with host Sarah Bowen Shea, Coach Liz shares so much great heat-mitigating advice, including:
-why it’s crucial to be as fit as possible on race day;
-smart steps to take in the week pre-race;
-why 70 degrees is the magic turning point;
-how and why to recalibrate your race expectations; and,
-how to reframe the heat as a challenge versus a threat.
Before Coach Liz switches from co-host to guest, Sarah shares details of her sporty weekend, including meeting a new pal at the pond.
