A cool day in Danish triathlon world
Why?
Because the Crowne Prince Frederik from Denmark, was again showing how strong he is, as he did participate in the half ironman race in Copenhagen, and raced in a good style!

Too much artificial sugar?
Are you tired in using all the sugar that you normally intake during your training? as it is very fast sugar, and normally stuffed with different artificial flavors and colors.
Unfortunately…but this is what endurance nutrition industry is a lot about: sportsdrinks and gels, and energybars. The fact is, that we need this fast sugar in our training, but is there another choice?
Training with speed or cadence
In our lovely Nordic countries, we can right now enjoy the best summertime with long light nights and warm weather. Exactly perfect time to continue the triathlon and running training. As many triathletes, in Denmark at least, are training for the Ironman coming up in the end of August, in Copenhagen, it is still well enough with time to get better in your run condition and your run techniques. What could be ideal to focus on when you run train now?
Summer swimming; pool or sea?
My absolutely favorite swimming place is Kildeskovshallen in Gentofte. Even in the summer, actually much better in the summer than in the winter, as there is plenty of space, and free lanes for swimming… But then arises the question; is it better to swim in the sea during the summer, as all the triathlon competitions are also in the open water (=OW)?
