1. Have you got any questions for James or our other presenters? Let us know in the comment section below? 🤔#gtncoachescorner

2. I’m a keen runner, cyclist and wannabe triathlete and, like many, it’s the swim that’s holding me back. I’m working on my freestyle technique (thanks to your awesome videos) but progress is frustratingly slow. I still can’t quite finish a full 50m length while I can happily do 1.5km breaststroke at 2:20min/100m, should I just signup to my first triathlon and focus on breaststroke? I’m looking into lessons but worry I’m losing motivation. Any advice? #gtncoachescorner

3. Hello Coaches. May I ask best foods to eat after training and around what time after training session should we fuel to recover.

   Thank you very much.

4. Hi! Thank you for all the great pieces of advice! I have a question regarding nutrition before the start when you are intermittent fasting. I'm doing it every day as a part of healthy living and I try to fit trainings in my 10h eating window.

   But what should I do in the days before the start of 70.3 and IM? Should I fast as normal or as "carboloading" eat more with a smaller time gap in fasting?

5. I do use my Mach 5 (least cushion) for my short, quick runs and Cliftons (more cushion) for longer runs. Still, I don't understand the shoe question. Won't your easy runs always be slower than your interval or tempo runs? I know some people enjoy the data and science side, but my feeling is, unless you are a pro or someone trying to be in the money at events, enjoy the process. Granted, I'm the one who supports all the top runners by finishing in the bottom 10%.

6. Hey everyone! Recently completed my first race of the year a sprint distance, and looking towards an olymoic distance this may, I want to improve my training and would like to ask, should I do all my high intensity workouts in one day for 2/3 times a week, or should I do one on say tuesday then another on wednesday and another on friday with thursday being time off, this training distribtion between three disciplines has baffled me to say the least, would really love for you guys to do a segment on this, thanks for the great vid as always! #gtncoachescorner

7. Awesome #coachescorner today, James!

   Hi,
   While running or biking for longer than a hour my front part of the left foot goes fully numb.
   When I ride a bike for more than 4 hours my right foot has mild numbness.
   I havent done runs more than 1:30 so I dont know about the mild numbness in my right foot.

   In the begining I thought its from the bike possition but when I started running I crossed that.
   My shoes are new for both sports.

   My guess is nutrition or innate defect.

9. I write my swimming workout onto my bottle so that I don't have to take another item poolside. Works fab! ☺️

10. A swim workout that is too complicated you can’t memorize it is a swim set too complicated!

11. Poolside workout – written on paper and the paper goes in a clear ziplock bag. stays dry. stays readable. easy to carry/manage.

12. Super helpful coaches corner! Particularly the multiple shoe question. I just recently bought a pair of fancy carbon running shoes (Saucony Endorphin Pro 3) and they do feel amazingly fast (it's not marketing!!). But I save these for my speed days and use "normal" shoes for long, slow runs–but mostly because I'm thrifty (aka cheap). Glad to hear there's some real sports science behind not getting too adapted to the carbon shoes. Thanks!

13. I think the same. I run my slow z1 and z2 in Barefoot Shoes for short distance and my stability shoe for z1 and z2 for longer runs. Race and race like workouts as well as threshold and HIIT I prefer using carbon plated shoes – closest to race situations

14. 9:23 Write in the rain style notepads no mess and is meant from wet conditions.

15. I’m not sure it’s “good” advice – but I’ve had great results by slowly increasing use of barefoot/zero drop shoes. I now do everything but my important races in them. Has built up my strength and eliminated my knee pain, and then during a race I literally feel like I’m flying.

16. Yes

17. How long does it generally take to improve on your swimming speed? Unlike in running where I can get a sense for what faster paces feel like, I can’t overcome my technical insufficiencies to swim faster than a 1:40 pace for 50yd. For reference I’ve been swimming for only a couple months now and I’m training for a 70.3. I can hold a 2:00/100yd pace pretty well and have a solid running and cycling background. #GTNcoachescorner

18. I used 1 pairs a year can i?

19. Good vid Gtn
