I choose to do a podcast on triathlons and titled my series, “I Love to Tri”. I teach an early morning fitness class at school and the culminating activity for the students is to compete in a school run triathlon. The information in the podcast could help them with training, race preparation, strategies, and tips on equipment.
The “I Love To Tri” podcast series could have an infinite amount of episodes. Each weekly show could touch on a different aspect of triathlons, such as race preparation, nutrition, it could focus just on one discipline of the race for an episode, the possibilities are endless.
For this episode I focused on triathlons for beginners. It’s aimed for someone that is entering a triathlon for the first time. There are four main sections within the podcast, one each on the swimming, biking, and running aspect of the triathlon. I touch on training prior to the triathlon for each discipline as well as tips for the actual race. The fourth section discusses the transitions between activities during the actual race. My information in the podcast is about 10 min, but the actual length of the podcast is about 13 min. I found a slightly annoying song about triathlons and got the artists permission to use it, so I included it, I couldn’t resist. The next episode in this series will address different technologies in triathlons.
Graeme - Love the triathlon podcast! Great points and advice for first-timers and I especially liked the inclusion of the "Triathlon Song!" I've seen the YouTube video and have it as one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteWell done! How many races are you doing this season? I've got a duathlon April 10th, then my first tri of the season is May 22nd. My "big" race is here in downtown Columbus, OH that's suppose to draw in some pros. Should be fun.
Good luck with your season!
