Join Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation (www.endurancenation.us) for another weekly endurance podcast. This week Coach P sits down with Eric Kenny from EK Endurance Coaching (http://ekendurancecoaching.com/). The topic is Swimming and Minimum Effective Dose...what to consider when constructing a season. As a baseline, know that Eric advocates for swimming 2x a week, year-round. Key Talking Points: Make small gains all the time. Swimming is skill-based, so continuous application of those skill matter. Choose a coached session (masters) so you have feedback from the deck. Swim warm-ups are critical for improved overall training, as they help set up your stroke and prepare for a better workout. Since we swim in a closed atmosphere, it’s the perfect "inclement weather" alternate activity to replace a run or bike. Thanks for listening to this Endurance Nation podcast...find more online here.

Join Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation (www.endurancenation.us) for another special Team Endurance Nation interview podcast with Gabe Peterson, one of our newest Community Moderators. Gabe has long since left the world of triathlon for more adventurous events. If it's epic, and there's a race nearby, Gabe has likely done it. From the Bear 100(22k vertical) to the Wasatch 100 (24k vertical) to the Leadville 100, Gabe has put himself through a ton of tight spots just to bring you some incredible advice and motivation. Key Talking Points: Build into ultra running with a progression: Marathon to 50k to 50 miler and then 100 miler. Ultra running has an incredible amount of technique involved; practice makes perfect! What makes a 100 mile run on a treadmill even possible. Key Tips for New UltraRunners: Always get the vertical in to match your race / event Trekking poles are key to help you stay on your feet and running by the end of a 100 miler. Descending is a critical skill that must be practiced. A strong mental game is key to deal with fatigue, lack of sleep, weather and other variables.

Join Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation (www.endurancenation.us) for another special interview podcast. This week Patrick interviews long-time Endurance Nation member Tim Cronk on his evolution from Ironman to Ultra Runner, and now to one of our Community Moderators (Ultra Chat, of course). Tune in to learn to "meet" Tim and learn the inner motivation that powers him through races that most of us wouldn't tackle on a turbocharged ATV. The craziest part? He's got practically zero ego. Even if you don't listen to a word he says, Tim's voice will just help you chill out. Tim shares out: The origins of Good Skill vs Good Luck as a Team Endurance Nation saying. The power of connecting exertion to your happy place vs a place of suffering. How to be adventurous yet keep that competitive fire burning.

"Exercise without competition, without danger or purpose, didn't strengthen the body...it simply wore it out." ~ Norman Mailer The short term future of our collective endurance sports scene is looking pretty darn bleak. But we've got just what you need: a ridiculous set of challenges designed to build your fitness and push the limits of what you think is possible: The ENVEREST Challenge: www.endurancenation.us/enverest Three separate events running February, March and May of 2021. Each event has a training time / volume goal. There are different levels of completion. The degree of difficulty increases as you either opt into more "work," less time for the same "work," or an evil combination of them both. Along the way, you'll be training and completing alongside new friends and teammates. There's a community space and chat channel as well as "event time" live communication. We can't guarantee that your ENVEREST will be easy, but we can assure you that you won't be alone. Registration is FREE and open to anyone: www.endurancenation.us/enverest  You can opt into a SWAG option, where you'll get some cool gear for $100 regardless of the challenges you do (one or all three); with a portion of proceeds going to the Challenged Athletes Foundation. You can order that SWAG through March 15, 2021 here: https://bit.ly/3oA1ksR If you have questions or comments, visit us at www.endurancenation.us and use the red chat icon at the bottom of any page to ask your questions. Thanks and hope you join us!
