Successful outing at the Beachy Head yesterday for both and

A race and venue they're both familiar with.

Jemma got a 5min PB 🥳 on a very windy day - she's had a great year getting her speed back as we're focusing on shorter distances at the moment (after trail ultras over the last couple of years)

James has had a difficult summer with an injury that required weeks of not running at all and only rehabbing and swimming and we have only just incrementally increased the distance to culminate in the half. Matching his time from his first Beachy Head half was therefore a great success as we are building towards some big plans for 2027

Big congrats guys! ✨️🙌🎯

Deliberate Practice

We can all find ourselves at times going through the motions, be that with practice or training in sports or indeed at work.

In the endurance training world, some call this adding junk miles. Miles that don't contribute anything to your goal and may even hinder performance as they add to the accumulated fatigue.

We're not entirely present when just going through the motions, and when it comes to optimising performance, it isn't very conducive to achieving your goals.

The first step is being aware when you're not present in your session or when sessions don't have some kind of anchor point, rationale or aim.

Having clear process goals and a plan and aim for the session is key

For the session itself mindfulness training can help bring you back into the session (present moment) and make your practice more deliberate.

Zooming in/out

Both are skills that can help us improve performance, and sometimes reminding our clients that they need to take either action to take the next step on their performance journey is what's required.

Zooming out:
Being too focused on insignificant small actions or ruminating over mistakes that cannot be changed can keep us stuck. Being able to zoom out from this hyperfocus can give us another perspective, help us find a different solution and simply just remind us why we do what we do.

Zooming in:
Sometimes we are distracted by what others are doing on their performance journey and we keep on changing where our attention goes before it can ever have an impact on our actions. In those situations the ability to zoom in and focus and one thing that can move the needle for us can be equally as important.

In my 12+ years of endurance coaching - both running & and triathlon, I've seen one thing way too many times

And it's what will hold back your progress and worse what might lead to underrecovery, athletic burnout and losing your joy for your sport and your motivation

Doing the same thing year in year out, same intensity, same distances lots of races throughout the entire year and then the disappointment that your results weren't meeting your expectations and your dedication to your training

Periodizing your training year is so much more than tapering for an A race.

It means scheduling proper time off post-season like yes, no running or swim-bike-run for a couple of weeks. You won't lose all your gains and fitness - it is vital for training sustainably. On top of that, it refreshes the mind, too.

Proper base training focusing on endurance and building your engine- your physiology will thank you

Build and peak phases where training is becoming more intense and specific to your race(s)

Outcome vs Process

Too much focus on performance outcomes can lead to increased anxiety and physical tension.

But also, maybe more importantly it can hinder progress.

Why is that? In technical sports progress often only comes through improving technical skills and form.

This can go hand in hand with a temporary slowing down of skill ex*****on and therefore reduced performance.

These changes are necessary for long-term improvement.

So focusing on the process of improving your skills rather than solely the outcome and accepting a temporary drop in performance is what is actually necessary for you making the next step up in your sport

Goals and Planning for a new season

Triathlon season is definitely slowly coming to an end... unless you live in the Southern hemisphere obviously.

Running season depends on your race schedule...But the last quarter of the year is when people start making plans for the year ahead.

This is actually about much more than setting new goals. This time is about taking stock, reflecting and not necessarily rushing into booking up all your race season straight away

So, take time at the end of a race season to reflect on your races. Good, bad...Write things down. Hopefully you may have done this during the season, then it's a matter of reviewing your notes.

This can provide clarity of how to move on, what's possible next year and provide you with more realistic data to support your decision making.

Take a step back and honestly think about why you're doing what you're doing. That might be super clear or maybe you realize you have been chasing another new distance, the next event that's even more challenging, a PB for so long that you've forgotten about your aspirations and what truly drives you. Sometimes looking back at where you started and why can give you some clarity and renew your motivation

Then look to align your new season goals with the values you've identified. Now you can get into the planning stage and set intentions for how to show up in your training to smash those goals.

Make sure you identify your longer term goals (outcome and performance) AND then get a more granular view of the actual training required and set process (shorter term) goals.

Don't forget to identify what's required outside of swim-bike-run or running that supports your ambitions, i.e. physical conditioning, mental preparation, resources (people, time, money etc) and think about potential additional challenges that might get in the way.

As you can see goalsetting and planning is about much more than identifying A/B and C races and getting a training plan off the Internet..

Let's have a chat if you're looking to set fresh goals and plan for 2027 and need a fresh point of view from someone with coaching and practical experience

Self-reflection as part of a post-performance routine

Having a structured approach to self-reflection after a performance, competition or training is in my opinion from what I see daily an underutilised mental skill.

The key to self-reflection that moves you forward is:

- Writing ✍️ it down. Not only helps this channel your thoughts rather than just ruminating over what went wrong, it also means you can return to it as a reminder.

- Be honest, there's no hiding here, nor is the exercise going to bring you forward, unless you are honest

- Focus on both what went well and what didn't.

- Decide what is more and what is less important in your review. Create a hierarchy.

- What is in your control and what isn't.

- Take this a step further reflect on what strengths you can build on and which weaknesses you can't ignore. We want to work on both.

- Ask yourself what do I need to do in the next training session/competition. Make a plan and execute

- Implement your learnings in training, review for your next performance

Is self-reflection part of your routine?

OFF SEASON BLUES?

If you're a triathlete or long distance/track runner, maybe your season has already ended, or it will over the next few weeks after one of the late season races.

How does that make you feel?
Are you a bit tired mentally and physically but already pushing ahead towards next season not having even taken a week off. Do you feel a bit flat and demotivated, but you can't put your finger on why that is?

Do you only ever take time off training when you're forced to through injury or illness?

That was certainly me 10yrs+ ago when I went straight from Ironman to a triathlon training camp (where the coach pushed as all equally despite being in different phases of training) to resuming normal training once back home and then running and hiring a bike jyst so i could keep on training during my trip overseas . The year after, I had to cancel the majority of my races because I was too run down. Batteries empty, not able to train consistently.

The pros take some time off after a busy race season. They're active, yes, but not with swim, bike run, and nothing too structured. We should do the same! More so because we handle training, family, AND work life. Something has to give. All my clients have periods of time off/unstructured activity for a mental and physical reset

If you're struggling with allowing yourself to step away from training for a week or two, let's have a chat.
