TRAINING - STAMINA
Power and coordination are important ingredients, but without stamina and cardiovascular conditioning you’ll run out of gas and be a done deal. It’s impossible to endure a long training day of ten to fifteen runs and more importantly, advance eight heats in a parallel final to claim a podium without aerobic strength. In the summer I spend a lot of time on my mountain and road bikes to stay fit and run regularly in the winter when on the road.
