Beginning tri training, week 13: Focus on nutrition

Written by
You're in the "middle" of your training, and by that I mean all sorts of things. You might've plateau'd a bit. Or even gotten occasionally stale or bored or tired or frazzled or haggard.

My point in writing what I wrote during the past three weeks -- and in giving you a rest week last week -- is that triathlon is more, in its execution, than just running, swimming and cycling. It is a lifestyle. It is a life change. It will mean more to you than you know, and you won't know what it means until you've lost it for awhile (through whatever hiccup may befall you).

Hopefully, you're dealing with that "fourth" and most important aspect of multisport, which is the ability to successfully integrate the other three sports into your life and relationships.
