119 - Tim Hola's Key Workouts

Our guest this week is Tim Hola.  Tim is an elite age-grouper with a full time job and family.  He is also had a 9:52 race in Kona this past year.  He joins us to talk about the realities of balancing all of his responsibilities and still being an incredible athlete.  He shares some of his favorite workouts in each the swim, bike and run and what works for him.

Thanks to last week's guest, Dr. Kirk Parsley.  As a sleep specialist, former Navy Seal and endurance athlete, he knows the demands we put our bodies through and had a lot to share on getting healthy sleep.  If you missed it, your owe it to yourself to go back and listen to episode #118.

We already mentioned Tim's Kona performance from last year.  In addition to being an incredibly talented athlete, Tim happens to be a neighbor.   I've been racing triathlon in the Denver/Boulder area for more than 12 years and I've gotten to know some pretty fast triathletes.  Many guys who look to get on the podium.  There's one guy that everyone hopes doesn't turn up at a race and that is our guest Tim Hola.  When Tim shows up, everyone is racing for second.  I'll share some of his race results on Athlinks after the interview.
