Show Notes
Cold water immersion or garments are becoming a hot new idea in recovery for cyclists, runners and triathletes. But what does the evidence say? Is there support to this idea or will the TriDoc throw cold water on the notion that this can improve performance? Triny Willerton survived a terrible collision with a truck while out riding her bike training for an Ironman. She is back riding and racing and founded the #itcouldbeme movement. She talks to me about survival, moving on and giving a name and a face to cyclists. The Triathlete Routard goes to Maui for the Xterra World Championships.
