How to Have a Triathlon Breakthrough in Only 1 Day (Performance, Confidence & Community) Ep 152

WEBVTT
00:00:55.789 --> 00:00:58.109
All right, welcome back to the Find Your Edge podcast.
00:00:58.189 --> 00:01:06.510
I am your host, Coach Chris Newport, and I have one of my favorite guests with me, Coach Carly, who is now okay, here we go.
00:01:06.829 --> 00:01:07.230
Dr.
00:01:07.469 --> 00:01:08.989
Frost Poirier.
00:01:09.069 --> 00:01:09.709
How did I do?
00:01:10.109 --> 00:01:11.150
Yes, he did beautiful.
00:01:11.390 --> 00:01:19.390
Chris, I've worked for Chris for what five, maybe closer to six, I don't know, somewhere many years now, and she's still figuring out how to say my last name.
00:01:20.750 --> 00:01:21.310
Yep.
00:01:21.629 --> 00:01:22.670
Uh hi.
00:01:29.229 --> 00:01:29.549
Thank you.
00:01:29.710 --> 00:01:30.909
I I do learn.
00:01:31.069 --> 00:01:32.189
I can learn.
00:01:32.509 --> 00:01:33.870
Fifth year's a charm.
00:01:34.109 --> 00:01:34.909
That's that's right.
00:01:34.990 --> 00:01:35.469
Yes.
00:01:35.710 --> 00:01:39.229
So we have our upcoming ultimate training days.
00:01:39.469 --> 00:01:55.229
And I thought it would be such a great opportunity because you have been at a good majority of our camps and have seen the transformation that people have gone through by experiencing this event.
00:01:55.390 --> 00:02:02.750
And whether you come to our training camp or whether you do another training camp, let me just tell you, do it.
00:02:03.389 --> 00:02:04.990
That's the long and the short of it.
00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:28.830
And so I figured this would be a great opportunity for Carly and I to share some stories of some of the transformations that we've seen when, you know, people come in and they're like, I'm gonna learn how to bike better, and I'm gonna learn about fueling and hydration, or you know, sit through this lecture on mental performance and you know, maybe just go ride my bike and meet some new people.
00:02:28.990 --> 00:02:35.469
And lo and behold, the transformation is much deeper.
00:02:35.789 --> 00:02:36.990
Would you agree?
00:02:37.310 --> 00:02:38.990
Deeper or or just different.
00:02:39.150 --> 00:02:55.150
I feel like almost to your point, people come in because they specifically want help on this, or you know, they're focused on a certain thing, and then they leave like, I didn't realize I needed to learn this thing that I learned today, and it just absolutely changed my run.
00:02:55.310 --> 00:02:57.310
Or say, no, you know, whatever it might be.
00:02:57.389 --> 00:03:08.829
But yeah, just that you come in with one expectation, you leave like, holy moly, this was maybe a lot different than I thought it was gonna be, but I'm leaving with a piece of information that I thought I was good with.
00:03:09.150 --> 00:03:20.750
Or yeah, and not necessarily even a piece of information, but a doorway that you didn't even know was like literally right in front of you that was open, and you were just like, I just don't even see that door.
00:03:21.069 --> 00:03:25.870
You know, and it just takes that one person to be like, no, you need to be going that way.
00:03:26.109 --> 00:03:28.429
And then people are like, No kidding.
00:03:28.669 --> 00:03:29.789
Yeah, how about that?
00:03:30.030 --> 00:03:47.069
Even though they were down every podcast, YouTube, rat you know, forum rabbit hole on this one particular skill set or these different types of workouts to make you better in this other way, when really they they just need to be redirected.
00:03:47.229 --> 00:03:47.709
Yeah.
00:03:48.189 --> 00:04:02.989
And I think that's the beauty of doing an actual in-person coached experience where you are seen and uh have the opportunity to just be vulnerable and be open, like, okay, teach me the things.
00:04:04.109 --> 00:04:12.909
I think I think that that's one of one of the challenges is if somebody comes in like, I don't have anything more to learn.
00:04:13.229 --> 00:04:15.310
Or they're probably not coming, honestly.
00:04:15.949 --> 00:04:17.389
Like, I'm good at all the things.
00:04:17.790 --> 00:04:20.189
Like, well, are you?
00:04:21.709 --> 00:04:31.310
And I think the great part about a camp too, particularly when we do ultimate training days like this, where we're touching on pretty much all the aspects of triathlon within one day.
00:04:31.389 --> 00:04:35.230
So you're getting eyes on you in the swim, the bike, the run, a transition.
00:04:35.389 --> 00:04:37.069
We're gonna talk mental skills.
00:04:37.310 --> 00:04:41.870
So it's not uh, you know, it's not just going to a group ride or going to an open water swim.
00:04:41.949 --> 00:04:48.829
You're getting eyes on your technical skills in each discipline in triathlon.
00:04:49.150 --> 00:04:58.829
And I'm sure some of you out there are absolutely wonderful and perfect, but I'm sure there's something we can catch to improve or a tidbit that we can give you.
00:04:58.990 --> 00:05:04.350
Or you're coming in like a newbie and you're just like, tell me all the things, which is super great.
00:05:04.670 --> 00:05:06.590
But the day is jam-packed.
00:05:06.670 --> 00:05:10.829
It's gonna touch on everything, and you're gonna have eyes on you.
00:05:10.990 --> 00:05:15.470
And what's so great about this year too is we're incorporating mentors from our racing team.
00:05:15.629 --> 00:05:25.310
So not only are you getting a group of coaches, but we're also having mentors that are elite athletes, and they're gonna be great examples for us to use to show good form and things like that.
00:05:25.550 --> 00:05:35.629
But we've almost doubled the amount of eyes that we'll have on you to like pick up those things and give you that feedback and just encourage you because you're probably doing better than you think you are too.
00:05:35.870 --> 00:05:36.189
Yes.
00:05:36.430 --> 00:05:37.710
Oh goodness gracious.
00:05:37.870 --> 00:05:44.030
Um yeah, I think we're all we're probably, you know, this sport attracts um a lot of perfectionists.
00:05:44.270 --> 00:05:45.790
Um cough, cough.
00:05:45.950 --> 00:06:06.910
I know I'm talking about you out there if you're listening, or people who are, you know, set really high expectations for themselves and uh don't necessarily give themselves enough credit for the progress that they've made, or just honoring where they are in the process in relation to other people.
00:06:07.069 --> 00:06:11.069
I mean, we're always like, oh, I should be like the pros.
00:06:12.270 --> 00:06:28.189
Or, you know, why is this other person excelling so much faster than you know, they have regardless of like their skill level, it's just it's like the unfairness that somebody else is excelling faster than they are, and what are they doing wrong?
00:06:28.430 --> 00:06:35.470
And this is such a great opportunity to actually have people see you.
00:06:35.950 --> 00:06:40.350
And I'm so sorry you guys, but AI cannot do that for you.
00:06:41.230 --> 00:06:42.830
You really have to be seen in person.
00:06:43.230 --> 00:06:57.230
It's just a totally different energy to be able to be vulnerable and be open to coaching and to accept your next best level of athlete inside you.
00:06:57.470 --> 00:07:06.270
Last last year uh, whenever it was, I can't remember now, but um, Coach Peter did the menopause forman chat that day.
00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:08.110
He's also doing the one that we have coming up here.
00:07:08.350 --> 00:07:13.470
Y'all, if you haven't met Coach Peter yet, he's a delight and we love when he gets to come up and actually be in person with us.
00:07:13.710 --> 00:07:24.189
But last time he talked about goal setting and worked everyone through, we had paper and pens for everybody, and it was more of like a workshop more than a seminar where you just sit there and listen.
00:07:24.430 --> 00:07:32.030
But uh I think the biggest takeaway when people learned a new and different way to sort of approach their goal setting for the season.
00:07:32.189 --> 00:07:35.629
But I heard a couple athletes like, oh, I need to bring this to my coach.
00:07:35.710 --> 00:07:39.150
Like this is this is we haven't considered my goal in this direction.
00:07:39.230 --> 00:07:41.550
We haven't talked about it that way, which was super great.
00:07:41.790 --> 00:07:48.430
And you know, as coaches, we only have so much time in our coaching calls and in our communications, and there's a bazillion things that we're talking about.
00:07:48.590 --> 00:07:53.790
Uh so it's super helpful when an athlete comes in and they're like, hey, I want to talk about this very specific thing.
00:07:53.870 --> 00:07:56.189
And you're like, great, let's let's go for it.
00:07:56.350 --> 00:07:59.310
But yes, so last last time was more on goal setting.
00:07:59.390 --> 00:08:05.470
I think he's he's working on some sort of resilience discussion for this upcoming one.
00:08:05.710 --> 00:08:12.990
And we haven't settled on topics for our other two ultimate training days just yet, but I'm sure we'll figure that out here in the coming days.
00:08:13.150 --> 00:08:14.270
Oh, yeah, for sure.
00:08:14.510 --> 00:08:33.950
Yeah, I loved how with the workshop style that he did last time, as people share, other athletes have a had like aha moments like, oh, this other athlete is experiencing something similar to me, but they're at a totally different level than I am.
00:08:35.149 --> 00:08:44.830
So uh, or um having some silly moments that you're like, oh, I can laugh at myself for that.
00:08:45.470 --> 00:08:47.629
That is also okay.
00:08:47.950 --> 00:08:48.269
Yeah.
00:08:48.750 --> 00:08:52.189
That was I think learning how to break down your goals too.
00:08:52.269 --> 00:08:56.029
Like you mentioned, there's a lot of perfectionists out here.
00:08:56.189 --> 00:08:57.950
There's a lot of type A personalities.
00:08:58.029 --> 00:09:01.629
You guys are typically very high performers in multiple areas of your life.
00:09:01.710 --> 00:09:04.029
So you come in with these big hitting goals.
00:09:04.269 --> 00:09:17.470
And I think that talk just helped a lot of people break it down into smaller chunks and make it more manageable and set some shorter term goals as they work towards that big one, which is always super helpful to kind of break that down too.
00:09:17.789 --> 00:09:18.990
Yeah, definitely.
00:09:19.230 --> 00:09:26.909
I loved the uh when we started off on the bike ride because we got to all branch out based on different levels and skill sets.
00:09:27.949 --> 00:09:30.829
So you and I took Unexpectedly.
00:09:31.309 --> 00:09:32.110
Unexpectedly.
00:09:32.269 --> 00:09:33.389
This is not part of the plan.
00:09:33.629 --> 00:09:34.750
This was not yes.
00:09:34.829 --> 00:09:39.309
So um, listen, y'all, the Endurance Edge, we are known for our flexibility.
00:09:39.709 --> 00:09:42.269
We are very adaptable in the moment.
00:09:42.829 --> 00:09:56.669
Um, we had the intention was to have two groups, one to be a little longer and a little bit faster, and the other to be a little shorter and a little bit more accommodating for different speeds.
00:09:56.990 --> 00:10:06.589
And we had uh two athletes who were like literally didn't know how to ride a bike.
00:10:06.829 --> 00:10:07.149
Yeah.
00:10:07.309 --> 00:10:14.110
They were experienced marathonners, so not new athletes, but they were like, I've never ridden on the road before, and this is terrifying.
00:10:14.269 --> 00:10:20.909
And so while the riders went out in one direction, you and I took them to a parking lot.
00:10:21.230 --> 00:10:23.469
And don't mean to laugh about it, it was like so joyous.
00:10:23.549 --> 00:10:24.829
I mean, it was great.
00:10:25.789 --> 00:10:29.230
And taught them how to ride bikes.
00:10:29.469 --> 00:10:30.029
Yeah.
00:10:30.589 --> 00:10:37.870
Uh I mean, what were you what were your what was what were you thinking in that whole experience?
00:10:38.269 --> 00:10:46.189
Um, I very specifically remember taking a photo of them and telling them that I was gonna show it to them when they became an Iron Man.
00:10:46.829 --> 00:10:50.429
And one of them has done multiple 70.3s since then.
00:10:50.750 --> 00:10:54.990
So I love it.
00:10:55.149 --> 00:11:05.549
I think both what like our superpower and probably our fatal flaw at the same time is that Chris and I sort of have this attitude of like, we'll figure it out.
00:11:06.110 --> 00:11:08.110
And and we do, we figure it out.
00:11:08.269 --> 00:11:20.189
Uh, but singing on our feet and just rolling with it, like I challenge you to come to a camp and find a reason that I don't have 20 minutes to sit around and just wait until the next activity.
00:11:20.349 --> 00:11:22.669
And I'm like, oh no, we're gonna go work on this.
00:11:22.829 --> 00:11:27.069
Like, come and come and find me and we will go and and work on it.
00:11:27.230 --> 00:11:35.549
But I I love, I love that they were like, hey, I'm just gonna sit out for the ride because I'm not comfortable going out on the road yet, but I'm here for it for the whole rest of the day.
00:11:35.629 --> 00:11:37.709
And we were like, absolutely not, we're gonna go learn how to ride a bike.
00:11:37.870 --> 00:11:38.429
Like, let's go.
00:11:38.589 --> 00:11:42.990
And we did, and they figured it out, and then they like it's amazing.
00:11:43.149 --> 00:11:47.709
It's we we took them, we did very specific drills around the parking lot.
00:11:47.870 --> 00:12:18.829
We taught them how to corner, we taught them how to break, we taught them like one girl was on a hybrid, which I feel like there were a few moments where I almost had a heart attack but didn't, and she made it, and you know, it's almost like it's almost like teaching a kid to walk, and they're like walking on the edge of like a dock and they're about to fall in the water, and you're like, turn around, turn around, turn around, turn around, you know, and then you just kind of scoop them up a little bit and just guide them in the other, like they don't know any better, they're just like I've never done this before.
00:12:19.069 --> 00:12:29.709
So just being so naive coming into it is such a blessing that you don't overthink it, and then and they got it, and they were so good at it.
00:12:29.789 --> 00:12:33.469
Like, wait, it I don't know, I feel like both of our minds were blown.
00:12:33.709 --> 00:12:33.949
Yes.
00:12:34.189 --> 00:12:39.309
Well, again, they were both like wonderful marathon runners, so they had super strong legs coming into it.
00:12:39.469 --> 00:12:48.429
The the cardiovascular fitness was there, they just to your point, it's kind of like a toddler figuring out how to walk straight, and it was just like, all right, here we go.
00:12:48.669 --> 00:12:56.349
And to your point, I think we were raising seats and talking about shifting, and I think we might have taken a kickstand off at one point.
00:12:56.909 --> 00:12:58.589
Oh, yeah, we probably did.
00:12:58.990 --> 00:13:00.029
Wow, yeah.
00:13:00.189 --> 00:13:07.230
And then we were, I think we were using shoes at some point, maybe taking off our shoes and using those as like turning cones, possibly.
00:13:08.189 --> 00:13:09.230
There's a good chance.
00:13:09.549 --> 00:13:15.389
We just making it work, and then they left like, cool, I can do this thing.
00:13:16.669 --> 00:13:26.429
So I feel like that is, I mean, that that's you know, our point of these training days is uh walking away, seeing athletes believe in themselves and have more confidence.
00:13:26.589 --> 00:13:27.149
Yeah.
00:13:27.469 --> 00:13:44.990
So and in the meantime, the other cyclists were out getting direction on like how to hold a line, how to pass safely, how to shift properly, how to we've seen this at camp, I feel like very frequently, is um cadence.
00:13:45.230 --> 00:13:52.349
Like how to there's some things that happen intuitively in some athletes, and some things that just absolutely don't.
00:13:52.589 --> 00:13:54.429
And how are you gonna know?
00:13:54.589 --> 00:14:04.269
Like when when somebody gives you a training plan, you're just like, okay, pedal your bike this far and this fast at this intensity or whatever, but you you don't see the whole picture.
00:14:04.429 --> 00:14:04.750
Yeah.
00:14:04.990 --> 00:14:10.829
And that's what's so great about training camp, is that we get to see the whole picture.
00:14:11.149 --> 00:14:16.509
I mean, I've worked with athletes for months and then I see them ride, or I ride with them.
00:14:16.750 --> 00:14:25.549
I'm either uh running sag from a car and seeing them ride, or I'm riding with them, and I'm like, have you been doing this the whole thing?
00:14:25.629 --> 00:14:27.949
Like, we've been working together for six months now.
00:14:28.110 --> 00:14:30.269
Have you always been in your big ring?
00:14:32.110 --> 00:14:38.110
I remember at one camp riding up next to somebody, and I was like, okay, so we're gonna shift to the small ring now.
00:14:38.189 --> 00:14:39.629
And they were like, What's a ring?
00:14:39.789 --> 00:14:44.189
And I was like, Okay, we're just gonna back it up a little bit, and yeah.
00:14:44.429 --> 00:14:59.230
And y'all, let me let me add to this that these are not like necessarily beginner athletes in this scenario, uh, or slow athletes by any means, some of them far better athletes than I've ever been.
00:14:59.629 --> 00:15:03.549
So it like don't think, oh, okay, you're running like a beginner camp here.
00:15:03.629 --> 00:15:12.990
Like, yes, we are very beginner-friendly, but we have elite athletes coming out here, and and we're, you know, everybody has somewhere to to gain and grow.
00:15:13.149 --> 00:15:15.549
And oh, yeah, that's a good point.
00:15:15.709 --> 00:15:38.750
Um, which similarly reminds me of a very elite athlete who I've seen in the lab, and you know, VOTamax well into the 60s, like stellar athlete, and he and he's an on-road uh triathlete, and I saw him at an off-road triathlon, and he came over to me and said hi, and it was, you know, lovely to see him.
00:15:38.990 --> 00:15:41.709
And and then I was like, Oh, have you ever done this before?
00:15:41.870 --> 00:15:42.589
He was like, No.
00:15:42.750 --> 00:15:48.349
I was like, okay, you know, when you're when you're just like, I I see your future.
00:15:49.789 --> 00:15:55.949
But uh it's not my place right now to give you any, you know, like they're not asking for any video.
00:15:56.269 --> 00:15:56.990
We're just saying hi.
00:15:57.149 --> 00:16:03.549
And then after the race, was like, I didn't know about a thing called traction.
00:16:04.269 --> 00:16:10.829
You know, like just the they're just like they just don't know, and then they get out on the trail and they're like, oh, that was hard.
00:16:11.069 --> 00:16:12.990
This takes a different degree of skill.
00:16:13.149 --> 00:16:19.389
Now that is in the context of you know, mountain biking or off-road draath on, but it doesn't matter.
00:16:19.549 --> 00:16:19.949
Yeah.
00:16:20.189 --> 00:16:26.029
You can take somebody who's like, I swam in college and then you throw them in the open water, and it's like a whole different ball game.
00:16:26.669 --> 00:16:38.429
We actually get that a lot of pool swimmers that are like, I'm real great in the pool, but I need you to take me in the open water because I like that it's totally different ball game.
00:16:38.589 --> 00:16:38.829
Yes.
00:16:38.990 --> 00:16:45.230
And they always do wonderful, but sometimes you just need a little angel on the shoulder to help you get there.
00:16:45.549 --> 00:16:48.829
But I think to your bigger point of you just don't know what you don't know.
00:16:49.069 --> 00:17:05.230
And even if you've been working with a coach for a while, like again, there's a bazillion things for us to talk about with our athletes, and you know, just the some minute things get passed over, and then when the eyeballs are on you, you're like, oh, okay, let's talk about this.
00:17:05.549 --> 00:17:08.430
Or let's try a different way or something.
00:17:08.750 --> 00:17:32.829
So I think that's a great way of uh summarizing everything is basically you don't know what you don't know, but you think you know various things, and you've gone down the rabbit holes of like, I know all the things about FTP or VO2 Max or uh, you know, run form, or like I had an athlete in the lab the other day who's who was like, Well, everybody to it tells me to go super easy on zone two, and then you know, don't spend any time in the middle.
00:17:32.990 --> 00:17:35.309
And that was his opportunity for improvement.
00:17:35.549 --> 00:17:53.230
You know, like I'm following what the what the you know the textbooks are saying or what everybody's saying that, and yes, we can speak to generalities all day long, and that's it's great that we have so many opportunities for learning all these different things with, you know, again, podcast, YouTube, whatever, friends.
00:17:53.789 --> 00:18:14.909
But then it's so different when it applies to you, yeah, and when someone can actually see again, you don't you have blind spots, and that is what Ultimate Training Day is all about is uncovering those blind spots and giving you a whole next level.
00:18:15.069 --> 00:18:29.629
Like y'all just don't even know the greatness that you have, like on the other side of just and not only that, but uh oftentimes you're not the only one that needed that information.
00:18:29.950 --> 00:18:45.950
And then you're and then you're there with two, three, ten other athletes that you're like, oh, okay, it wasn't just me having a hard time with this, or just me that didn't know that thing, or you know, and now all of a sudden you're in like uh oh, I almost had a pun.
00:18:46.190 --> 00:18:48.029
I was gonna say camp with other people.
00:18:48.670 --> 00:18:50.269
Uh I didn't know.
00:18:52.349 --> 00:18:53.230
Don't fault me.
00:18:53.309 --> 00:18:54.750
I didn't mean it, guys.
00:18:55.470 --> 00:19:05.389
Um, but uh just to to recognize uh travel is such an individual sport, and you can be in the sport for many years and sort of going at it on your own.
00:19:05.470 --> 00:19:14.029
You don't have a coach, you don't have a community, you're not necessarily going, you know, you don't maybe you don't live near a club that has group rides for you to join on Thursday nights and get a beer, you know?
00:19:14.349 --> 00:19:20.029
So to to come in and be like, oh, okay, one, what I'm experiencing is normal.
00:19:20.190 --> 00:19:23.629
All these other people have either gone through or they're going through it right now, too.
00:19:23.789 --> 00:19:29.549
And having that mental sort of connection of just like, okay, I'm on the right path.
00:19:29.629 --> 00:19:37.149
I'm doing it, like I'm supposed to hit these roadblocks as I go along or these learning curves as I go along, is one of the great things too.
00:19:37.230 --> 00:19:39.950
And I, you know, the two people we're talking about learning to ride a bike.
00:19:40.029 --> 00:19:46.509
I don't think either of them knew each other before that day, nor did either of them know that there would be someone else there that didn't know how to ride a bike.
00:19:46.589 --> 00:19:49.710
And now all of a sudden they're learning to ride with someone else.
00:19:49.789 --> 00:19:56.349
And that absolutely connected them and created, you know, created a connection for them moving forward, which is super great too.
00:19:56.670 --> 00:20:05.149
And the other thing you um that I thought of as you were talking is not everyone who comes to our camps are are quote unquote our athletes.
00:20:05.549 --> 00:20:07.950
Like you don't have to be coached by us.
00:20:08.109 --> 00:20:08.349
No.
00:20:08.589 --> 00:20:14.029
We are we are our bigger mission and vision is to empower you and to create a community.
00:20:14.750 --> 00:20:16.750
That is the nutshell of our mission and vision.
00:20:16.829 --> 00:20:20.190
And if that means you're coached by someone else, great.
00:20:20.829 --> 00:20:26.829
That is more opportunity for them to guide you and do great things along the way.
00:20:26.990 --> 00:20:30.750
Uh so we have folks who have local coaches who come to our camps.
00:20:30.909 --> 00:20:42.269
We have folks who have faraway coaches, you know, virtual coaches who come to our camps, and it's just so nice to have that opportunity to get that personal feedback.
00:20:42.430 --> 00:20:45.789
So again, you're you're uncovering your blind spots.
00:20:46.670 --> 00:20:52.190
And it just makes that relationship between you and whomever your coaches that even better.
00:20:52.349 --> 00:20:55.869
Now, that being said, you are welcome to work with us too.
00:20:57.230 --> 00:21:06.829
But also, you know, we're here for your improvement and for the bigger community that endurance sports brings together.
00:21:07.149 --> 00:21:07.710
Yeah.
00:21:08.349 --> 00:21:15.710
And it's just, I think we there's a couple groupings, I'll say, that end up at our ultimate training days like this, right?
00:21:15.789 --> 00:21:18.909
We have our athletes that are just like here for a good time and they always want to be involved.
00:21:19.069 --> 00:21:20.109
Love it, love to see it.
00:21:20.269 --> 00:21:22.589
They're the ones that bring the vibes and set the tone, right?
00:21:22.829 --> 00:21:23.149
They do.
00:21:23.309 --> 00:21:24.430
They have the best jokes.
00:21:25.470 --> 00:21:28.109
They're just like, oh, I can laugh while I'm doing this.
00:21:28.269 --> 00:21:29.470
We're like, yes, absolutely.
00:21:29.710 --> 00:21:30.430
Absolutely.
00:21:30.750 --> 00:21:33.470
Um, so you know, we'll have a chunk of our athletes there.
00:21:33.549 --> 00:21:38.509
We'll have a chunk of other local athletes that are coached by other coaches in the area.
00:21:38.670 --> 00:21:41.629
Again, regularly, you guys, they're they're there.
00:21:41.710 --> 00:21:45.789
Uh, we have uncoached athletes that are just local and looking for something too, right?
00:21:45.950 --> 00:21:50.990
Typically those athletes have some sort of race, uh, a race of the season.
00:21:51.230 --> 00:22:06.909
Obviously, usually everyone does, but particularly like if you're going for your first 70.3 or something and you're just you're wanting the clinic portion to really like hone in on those skills, but again, have some eyes on you and get some feedback and then have a nice big training day.
00:22:07.069 --> 00:22:14.829
So we often see some people that just have some more uh long course goals of the year and are looking for just a supported big day.
00:22:14.990 --> 00:22:19.309
Again, we're gonna have snacks, we're gonna give you lunch, you're gonna have we have multiple clinics set up.
00:22:19.710 --> 00:22:22.990
Not any old lunch, but Coach J, a Chef Jay prepared lunch.
00:22:23.309 --> 00:22:24.509
I mean, come on now.
00:22:24.670 --> 00:22:33.309
Like, yeah, I just want you to know, I I hype up Coach Jay all this regularly and his like anytime someone's like, okay, but you're gonna give us food.
00:22:33.389 --> 00:22:37.149
I'm like, no, I'm gonna give you amazing food and it's gonna be great.
00:22:37.389 --> 00:22:42.190
And then they finally eat it and they're like, oh, you might not have hyped this up enough.
00:22:42.269 --> 00:22:44.029
And I was like, you thought I was crazy.
00:22:44.430 --> 00:22:54.029
When we could hype up oatmeal, like not like I just love how people were like, oh my mom made oatmeal was so gross, or I hadn't, you know, never liked it.
00:22:54.589 --> 00:22:55.629
Just chef chaving.
00:22:56.029 --> 00:22:58.269
This oatmeal, and they were like, What did you do to it?
00:22:58.589 --> 00:22:59.710
Like, what did you add to it?
00:22:59.789 --> 00:23:04.349
He's like, Water, yeah, which is like is so hilarious to me.
00:23:04.750 --> 00:23:08.269
Anyway, I know it's my like favorite thing to be right about.
00:23:08.509 --> 00:23:12.750
Yeah, because I know they all think I'm crazy when I'm like, no, no, it's it's that good.
00:23:12.909 --> 00:23:20.829
Like, I know everyone judges me when I say it, and then everyone afterwards is like, no, you like that really was amazing.
00:23:21.069 --> 00:23:22.109
Like, yeah, yeah.
00:23:22.750 --> 00:23:24.269
So anyway, I interrupted you.
00:23:24.430 --> 00:23:26.509
Refreshments and delicious food.
00:23:26.829 --> 00:23:27.309
Oh, yeah.
00:23:27.389 --> 00:23:32.430
I don't, I totally sidetracked by the yumminess that will ensue.
00:23:32.829 --> 00:23:37.069
Um, but yeah, just come hang.
00:23:37.389 --> 00:23:39.549
It's educational, it's fun.
00:23:39.789 --> 00:23:47.629
You're gonna leave with at least one massive takeaway or one massive improvement that's gonna shift your trajectory moving forward.
00:23:47.869 --> 00:23:51.710
If not, again, things to bring up to your coach, follow-up questions that you have.
00:23:51.950 --> 00:23:53.629
Once again, we have multiple coaches.
00:23:53.710 --> 00:23:55.149
We're gonna have mentors there too.
00:23:55.309 --> 00:23:57.149
And just come out and have fun for the day.
00:23:57.309 --> 00:23:57.549
Yeah.
00:23:57.710 --> 00:23:59.389
We have three opportunities.
00:23:59.470 --> 00:24:03.470
They're all Sundays, one in July, one in August, one in September.
00:24:04.349 --> 00:24:08.349
So I think some people got a little confused, like, do they all go together?
00:24:08.670 --> 00:24:09.309
Oh, sure.
00:24:09.549 --> 00:24:10.829
They are they're all separate.
00:24:11.069 --> 00:24:15.230
You are welcome to come to all of them, but you probably only need one.
00:24:15.389 --> 00:24:25.309
But if you want to have a conversation, so what another thing that often happens at camp is you might be included in the group or you might be in the group doing something.
00:24:25.789 --> 00:24:36.269
And then you have a specific question that needs a separate coach to pull you aside and have that like conversation kind of over to the side.
00:24:36.349 --> 00:24:47.869
Uh, and that could be hey, I would recommend coming back to another camp, or you really need some work in this area or field, or so we're gonna be honest and transparent with you.
00:24:48.029 --> 00:24:50.109
We're not gonna sugarcoat things.
00:24:50.190 --> 00:24:53.629
But all that being said, is that come hang with us once.
00:24:54.190 --> 00:24:57.389
Come all three times if you want to, but certainly not a need to.
00:24:57.470 --> 00:25:05.950
Um, but we wanted to make more opportunities for people to come play because you know we know that people are busy and have a lot going on.
00:25:06.190 --> 00:25:09.470
But you deserve to have a breakthrough this year, unless it's gonna be it.
00:25:09.869 --> 00:25:11.710
Yeah, and it's great, it's local.
00:25:12.349 --> 00:25:15.470
You're uh waking up and going to bed in your own bed.
00:25:17.230 --> 00:25:18.109
Yeah, yeah.
00:25:18.269 --> 00:25:20.349
Or you travel a couple hours to come see us.
00:25:20.509 --> 00:25:21.230
That's cool too.
00:25:21.710 --> 00:25:23.470
You know, yeah.
00:25:23.549 --> 00:25:30.990
Um, and it's an it's way cheaper, obviously, than our overnight camps, which we have two coming up.
00:25:31.149 --> 00:25:40.430
We have our next spring, which um location TBD, but it's gonna be in April of 2026, and this time we are splitting it into two options.
00:25:40.589 --> 00:25:42.190
It will still be a four-day camp.
00:25:42.589 --> 00:25:46.829
So if you're looking for that experience, it's a different vibe.
00:25:47.389 --> 00:25:58.269
It is um it's a deeper transformation, it's a deeper opportunity to really uncover your again, uncover your blind spots and uh really lean into your community.
00:25:58.430 --> 00:26:02.589
And then we're having a different experience this fall with our women's retreat.
00:26:02.670 --> 00:26:03.950
And I am so excited.
00:26:04.109 --> 00:26:07.389
Obviously, you're excited about that, Carly, because it's gonna be the two of us.
00:26:07.470 --> 00:26:08.990
Oh my gosh, I cannot wait.
00:26:09.230 --> 00:26:17.710
Anyway, so more info on that is on our website, but uh you can't quite register for those for the women's retreat or for this spring training camp.
00:26:17.869 --> 00:26:24.349
In the meantime, come hang out with us at the ultimate training days, and uh yeah, thanks for sharing your thoughts, Carly.
00:26:24.670 --> 00:26:25.869
Much appreciated.
00:26:26.190 --> 00:26:28.670
And all you guys have better see you out at camp.
00:26:28.990 --> 00:26:29.869
Come join us.
00:26:30.190 --> 00:26:30.589
Woo!
