The 4th and 5th disciplines of triathlon

Often overlooked by many triathletes, the 4th (race nutrition) and 5th (transition) disciplines could turn a good day into a horrible experience very quickly.

When is the best time to eat breakfast before an event?  What about how many calories to consume while training?  Are you experiencing muscle fatigue or cramping while training?  All of these questions and many more can be answered during this event.

What about transitions?  Everybody knows what to bring, but have you actually taken the time to practice your transitions at full speed?

This unique workshop will include a 30 minute discussion on race nutrition presented by fellow triathlete and Nutrition Coach Todd Benedict, followed by a timed dress rehearsal of your transitions. We plan to have an actual transition corral set-up for real-time practice.  Bring your wetsuit, bike and all necessary gear to practice T1 & T2.  You will get wet, ride your bike and run out of the transition area. Prizes will be awarded for the fastest splits.

Training Studio Multisport is proud to host this triathlon workshop in conjunction with Ken Combs Running Store, Bluegrass Bicycle & Headfirst Performance.
