Once upon a time, there was a kid from California who didn’t really fit in well with the “stick and ball” sports that seemed to dominate the high school sports scene.
Like many of you, he found running to be more of his thing. And like many of you who tune in to these podcasts, he got pretty good at it. And just like you, he also started cycling and swimming. Maybe unlike you though, he was able to avoid having a real job for decades as he lived off the avails of a new sport called triathlon. Not only did he win some prize money, he also became one of our sport’s first “personalities” with a regular magazine column and his own line of sportswear.
This week on the show we spend a half hour with triathlon pioneer and legend, Scott Tinley. We Fitspeek about his transition from jock to egghead and from competitor to grandfather. And yes, we also have drinking stories!
And if that’s not enough, we also serve up a hot dish of training advice on Mikey’s Top Five. With more weeks of 30 degree plus temperatures in the forecast, Mikey has a way (5 of them!) of coping with training in the heat. Dive into the latest Fitspeek by pressing play below.
