Kristin – Sweat Courage
http://sweatcourage.com/author/klawhorn
This post might come across as rambling thoughts… but I hope it helps you. If I could think of one potential drawback to being a long distance triathlete it would be, that I spend a lot of time in my own head. Hours upon hours alone, with just me and my thoughts. This can be both a blessing and a curse. On the positive side, it allows me to work on mental toughness. On the negative side, if you are a worrier and have anxious tendencies like myself, it can be detrimental. To just breathe…. At first I thou...

Raleigh 70 point 3 {Recap}. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, or even a blog post for that matter. Here we go…. Raleigh was kind of a beast, but I loved it. A few things about Raleigh. It’s humid as f*ck. The people are really nice. The city is really clean. It’s SO GREEN everywhere, and so lush. Now I think I know why they call it the city of oaks? It’s a tough race. Rolling hills for dayssss.but not as bad as the course profile makes it out to be. Pizza at the finish line! Later that afte...

Hi and Welcome to my blog! This is a place where I get my thoughts out about training, life and everything in between… to be honest, mostly triathlon-ing. I fell in love with the sport of triathlon in 2010 and haven’t turned back since! In 2013 I started racing Ironmans and have since raced three Ironman races, including Kona in 2015. At my second Ironman ever, Ironman Mont Tremblant 2015, I had a huge PR and qualified for the Big Island! Leave a Reply Cancel Reply. Coeur Sports Ambassador 2016.

Remembering to just.breathe. Peak week is what makes you realize why you do an Ironman. You work hard all year long and then there are a few weeks out of the year that REALLY test your limits;. The big weeks show you what you are made of. When you think you can’t go any faster or any longer, you surprise yourself. You learn what you are capable of during peak week and most of all,. You realize that you are READY. Nerves are the body’s way of telling us that we are ready. July 23, 2015 by Kristin. One thi...

Vermont Training Camp 2015 RECAP (and lots of pretty pictures). First of all, I have been slacking on the blog posting train. Sometimes life gets in the way, and that’s okay…. finally I’m back! Today I’m finally talking about my training camp in VERMONT a few weeks ago, that totally changed me as a cyclist! Oh and I should mention there are HILLS, LOTS of HILLS. Hills so steep I couldn’t believe it! If you want hill training for an Ironman, go to Vermont, your power meter will thank you. Swim 3,000 yards.

I gave it my all. Not really sure where to start here. Eagleman chewed me up and spit me out. But that’s Okay. The truth is, I needed a race. Before the big show, my ‘A’ race. Looking back over my past six years of racing, I’ve never had a tough weather race. I’ve had tough courses but in perfect conditions. I’ve had easy courses in perfect conditions Never really had TOUGH conditions. I’m talking 95 degrees with 100% humidity (Heat Index was 106 degrees that day! My husband, Todd asked me after Eagleman:.

All the smarts to help you run fast and long. RICE vs MEAT: The fastest road to recovery. For decades, the prescription for any type of soft tissue injury has been RICE rest, ice, compression, and elevation. And often the use of NSAIDs like Ibuprofen was encouraged alongside. The goal of the RICE method and Ibuprofen is to decrease inflammation and manage pain. These may seem logical, but by digging deeper we find that this may not be the fastest method to healing. ANALGESICS: Studies have shown that too...
