Conquering Climbs like a Champ

Ups and downs are part of life. They are also a part of your triathlon training and racing. In this episode, TriDot coaches Mark Allen and Jason Verbracken cover how and where to train for hills for both the bike and run. Mark and Jason overview running technique and technical riding skills for inclines and descents. They also discuss how to manage your effort, optimize your speed, and strategically plan for racing on courses with climbs! TriDot and Dimond Bikes are a dynamite race day 1 – 2 punch.
