| Q and A with Dave Scott |
|
Dear Dave,
I am an experienced triathlete in
my 50's. I used to be a pretty good runner (10K PR
36:30 15 years ago). For the last five years I have not
been able to really train very well for the run.
I can swim really
well and my ride is strong. But if I try to do intervals to
increase by run speed I nearly always get injured. I am
able to lope along at 10-11 minute miles for 20 or so
miles per week. But that is not getting me faster or
fitter. I have tried the elliptical trainer with some
success.
Do you have any
suggestions for what I should do? I keep straining my
calves when I try to pick up the speed. I stretch a 3-4
days a week and get a massage weekly. I do a set of
100 squats about twice a week.
From Dave Scott:
First off, drop
the 100 squats 2 times per week. I like the squat
exercise, but . . .

| Anticipation of His Prize |
|
December 2007 saw the announcement of the
winner of the drawing to win a personalized training
weekend with Dave Scott and a case of Master Amino
Acid Pattern (MAP).
The excited winner, drawn randomly from many
thousands of entries, was Wayne Johannes, a 61
year-old retired principal from Keno, Oregon. Wayne is
a keen tri-athlete and an avid user of Master Amino
Acid Pattern (MAP), so his prize was perfect. He said
of winning the drawing, "I feel excited and privileged to
be spending one-on-one time with a legend like Dave
Scott. How better to learn than from an expert in the
sport I love. Also, I started using Master Amino Acid
Pattern (MAP) four years ago and have experienced
improved recovery from training and a reduction in
body fat. The fact that a case of the product is included
in my prize is real icing on the cake!"

Ranger Orientation Program (ROP), the assessment
and selection course for the 75th Ranger Regiment.
I have been here since the beginning of the month

with MAP appears to have gone very well.

How About the Kids? |
|
|
|
I frequently recommend to athletes that they take their
families along with them to races. Watching you
enjoying your sport helps them to understand your
passion for it. And once in a while, the result is that the
kids express a desire to get involved, which is a good
thing but requires some thought on your part in order
to make it a successful venture for all of you.
Keep in mind that your kids have seen only one piece
of the picture. I'm guessing that they saw you several
times during the race, probably coming through
transitions and then at the finish line. I'm also
guessing that, when you saw the kids, you put a big
smile on your face and gave a high-five as you passed
by. And, of course, at the finish line, any sign of the
pain you were feeling out on the course was wiped
right off your face and replaced by a huge grin as they
offered their congratulations with smiles and hugs.
What your kids probably didn't see is that getting to the
finish line required some pretty tough, painful work.
Certainly when your child decides to get involved, it's
not necessary for you to explain all this to him or her.
Instead, approach it as a great opportunity for fun and
reward. Below are a few ideas for when your kid utters
those fateful words: "Can I do a triathlon, too?"
You want to be certain that this first venture is...
