Music City Triathlon ----- Again?

So this past week ended up yielding some good training.  The intensity seems to be picking up, TT efforts are getting longer, track work is getting longer, the weeks are in the low 20 hr window, and I LOVE IT.  So long as I can get recovered, I’d much rather train at an intense level than pure aerobic.  It really just keeps things interesting as I try to think about every aspect to get the most speed with the least effort:  Nutrition, hydration, form, breathing, cadence, everything is being constantly checked over and over and over and over and then again during training sessions to drill in what works best.  There isn’t a day that goes by that I’m not thinking “B2B” in my training.  In my mind, I’m doing all of these workouts on the race course and visualizing the entire atmosphere.  This leads me to my next thought…
