I began competing in triathlons back in 2009. I loved everything about the sport and ate up all information available as a new student in the game. While training and racing fed my obsession, being self-coached presented several challenges, namely a performance plateau. I enjoyed a brief stint with a coach in 2011 that produced some desired results and overuse injuries that ultimately steered me away from coaching for another 4 years.

Our Tristar chart can help you get an approximate equivalent effort for zones between running on a treadmill at different paces and inclines and running outdoors on a level surface. Learn how you can use the normalized graded pace incline chart to target different pace zones with slower uphill running efforts.
As the CEO and master of your mind, you determine and decide each day what thoughts are allowed to enter you consciousness and be acted on.
