In this episode, Katie and I catch up about our racing plans that our happening in the very near future, we chat about the Spring Powerzone Pack Challenge, and what else is new our way. In our Power Up segment, we bring back Team Wilpers coach and pro triathlete Rebeccah Wassner, who speaks to periodization and what that means as far as rest days and variety in your workouts go, and how you can incoporate it into your training plans, whether you're focusing on a half-Ironman or you're simply training for life. And in our Powerhouse segment, we bring on Ty Audronis, Jill Federici, and Jennifer Barker who are the founders and group admins for The Tour, who discuss the group's trajectory from a few members to 19,000 in just one year. They talk about how they've evolved and created a supportive community of riders, and a challenge that almost brought the group to shut down over the summer. Bonus: They also spill about a new Tour event coming up soon!
