Have you ever fallen into these bad habits?

Great video and so helpful! When COVID shut down all triathlons in the US in 2020, our group put together our own race course and rules. We had so much fun because it was very casual and there wasn’t a trophy or age group to try and win. Plus, we had our own killer party after it was all done!!!

I'm guilty as charged. Rest days are the hardest for me to do. I'm scared to loose fitness, get fat or not be able to maintain what I have achieved so far. I will have to regroup on that part. Another one not mentioned is proper eating. I love cookies, maybe thats why I train so hard so I don't get fat. Great video to spur on the thinking.

Great video! All the mistakes I've made at various times! But never forgetting to have fun is the most important message. We're so fortunate to be able to do this activity that we love!! Thanks, GTN!

Really good list but I noticed whoever did your captions spelled “habit” as “habbit” 😜

Quite a good summary. Guilty in most of the items! It is great to see these kind of videos from time to time in order to not lose perspective and purpose.

Easy to slip into many of those habits / traps. That’s one of the benefits of having a good coach keeping an eye and guiding you.

I love your hair Heather. James, stay classy!

My worst bad habit must be that I skip swimming until I only have 6 weeks left of preparation for an ironman swim. Then I panic and start swimming like there is no tomorrow. Somehow I manage to get through the swim on the race day just so I can take another 10.5-month swim break.

Making sure to have a rest day is probably the biggest effort I have to make each week... Even though I know it's only beneficial!

After completing my first dozen triathlons I sat down and reviewed my training and performance to find any mistakes I've made. I found one big one.

I'M BLOODY SLOW!

Had to stop with twisted ankle now putting on weight as its xmas almost lol.

Bad habit #1 : I usually never train the swim until 2 months prior to my IM full. I can still swim the distance but I'm pretty sure, energy wise, I'm burning a lot of matches early on in the race.
