The race this year was the first of three Age-group World Championship Qualifying races which brought out some of the best age-group triathletes in GB and the atmosphere definitely had an added tension in the air as people set up in Transition and prepared themselves as the unsettled weather moved in!
I am sitting at my computer watching the live coverage of the Giro d’Italia and updating the RG Active website with our new Speedo ‘Swim Packs’ and dates for the next available Open Water swim and Brick session dates/times.
I am sure many of you have races coming up in the next few weeks………..
So make sure you check out the RG Active website for all the sessions and events that we are running in 2010 to keep you all sharp, motivated and enjoying every single second that you are training and racing the sport that we all love….TRIATHLON!
Check out the following links for Triathlon specific sessions for you to attend across London:
I hope this BLOG finds everyone well and ready to start 2010 fresh after some time off? I am assuming most of you have had some time off, because unless you have been out of the country or hibernating some where you will have been getting increasingly frustrated by the SNOW we have had across the UK.
I hope everyone is in the Christmas spirit and has got all of their presents purchased, or at least their shopping list ready for the last minute rush to the shops on Christmas Eve?
Recovery is the key word on every athlete’s lips no matter what level you are competing at, if you don’t allow your body to recover you will never gain the full benefits from all the time you put into training hard! There is not just one single key and there is no magic bullet, It is a combination of a variety of strategies, and one thing that most people don’t think enough about to aid recovery is massage!
So I hear you say…how does sports and remedial massage help me?
I wanted to tell you all about a race I did yesterday in Essex called ‘The Multi Mile Half Marathon’ and before you ask, ‘yes’ it was exactly that, thirteen times around a 1 mile lap that was all off-road and included two climbs per lap!
After your last race at the end of the summer it is always a good idea to have 1-4 weeks off, and this gives your body a chance to recovery after the summer season and the time off always makes getting back into training so much better because you really begin to miss the buzz of the sessions and the racing!
to talk about over-training and how it relates to what you eat and don’t eat and how nutrition plays an important part in making you the ‘complete’ athlete. Nutrition is as important as any training session, you don’t put diesel in a petrol car and expect the same performance, do you?
