OFF-ROAD TRIATHLON RACING & TRAINING
OFF-ROAD TRIATHLON RACING & TRAINING
by Peter Balyta
Triathlon is a race that consists of three consecutive events. Most commonly, these are swimming, biking, and running. Triathlon races allow you to test your fitness, resilience, and mindset in a healthy and fun way. Triathletes love these races because they like to compete, strive for superior performance, want to test their endurance, speed, strength, and mental fortitude, or simply prove to themselves that “anything is possible.” As triathletes, we are always striving to get better and are driven by a growth mindset, but we are also attracted to the sport because we love the lifestyle and all of the benefits that come from triathlon training. Let’s face it, over 90% of what we do falls into the category of training or active recovery. This is also where the real gains, adaptations, or evolutions happen.
