I'm looking forward to an exciting next month and a half, both in the lab and out in the field...which will be a whole bunch of points between here and Florida. We've had some really great athletes passing through the lab lately to test out the capabilities of the heat room. And I'm starting to see more athletes going for the bike/run combo test, which is great. Very cool to see how hydration needs change between the two sports depending on things like wind speed, body size, etc etc etc. I'm also looking forward to taking some of the testing outside when the warmer weather hits! The heat room is great in the winter but I don't want to be trapped in there in July.
Next weekend I'm heading out on the road, first to Cambridge to visit the Cambridge Multisport Club and talk about race-day hydration and nutrition, then to Windsor for a talk as well as the second installment of LPC Training Days.
And finally, in March, we'll be hauling down to Florida for the LPC Training Camp to start the outdoor riding season early! Not to mention getting in some open water swimming and a few brick workouts, and enjoying a distraction-free week of training and socializing! Then just so I can make sure my biking is up to par in time for the Oliver Half Iron in early June, I'll have the guys drop me off in South Carolina on the way back so I can visit my grandparents, then bike up to Virginia Tech to see some University of Waterloo friends. If anyone knows a good route let me know! My plan right now is to avoid major highways and not be too proud to stop and ask for directions along the way. It can't be that bad right?
