Opening Thoughts

The purpose of this e-letter is two-fold. First I would like to share information on training/racing techniques that I have developed in my fifteen years of racing/coaching. If you think there is something valuable in here that others could use, please pass it on. If there is something that you would like to see in here,send me an email. I have developed a large network of great resources and I if I don’t have the answer, I will know someone who does.  Secondly, this e-letter will be my personal space to brag about the athletes I coach and give them the praise they deserve—after all—it’s the athlete that does the hard work.  

Train Smart, Coach Mike

out how far one can go.” - T.S. Eliot

Winterize Your Fitness
By Fred Johannson
Often triathletes approach winter training with apprehension and a bit of apathy. I love all the seasons and the differences they bring to my training and racing regime. Each season allows me to focus on my in-season sports while recharging my batteries for my off-season sports. While the winter for triathletes often consists of indoor activities such as wind trainer, treadmill, strength training and pool workouts, I try to spend as much time as possible outdoors training and racing. The key to my winter sanity is skiing.
