Is your pain threshold high enough to run on broken legs?

What's your limit on how far you're willing to push your body?

In this episode we talk about respecting your event enough to be well prepared for it, and if not, what are the consequences you will suffer.

For most triathletes, suffering is the choice made when entering the sport. We relish it, thrive off it.

But not all suffering is necessary, and according to Coach Gerard, most triathletes go through unnecessary amounts of pain purely because they are underprepared.

If you find yourself walking in a triathlon you need to listen to this episode.

We also talk about:
The famous story of David Goggins and running on broken legs
How you're making an Ironman harder on yourself
How you could be shaving over an hour off your time
The EASIER way to complete an Ironman
