ZenTri 554 - Jesse Kropelnicki's Fueling Tips and Strong Like Bull Part 1
Saturday, March 15, 2014 at 8:37PM
Coach Jesse Kropelnicki chats with us about how QT2 Systems fuels it's top athletes for Ironman racing. It's a good conversation and pretty much opposite of what all the "low-fuel" types preach. You definitely don't want to miss this.
After the interview, I take you to Spain for part one of Strong Like Bull training camp. It was a beautiful trip and my first time to travel to Europe. And now, time for some photo commentary!
Southern Spain looks a lot like West Texas. Not quite as dry and hot and a bit more mountainous, but definitely good stuff. I took this shot in the middle of a typical long bike ride.
There's lots of little villages in the mountains, and then we also went to Granada a couple of times. If you check out the picture below, you can see a snow-capped mountain peak in the distance.
We rode to the top of that peak on the last day of Camp. It's the highest paved road in Europe, topping out at around 11,000 feet. We'll cover that ride in the next show.
Above is the Moorish fortress called "La Alhambra." You are looking at just a tiny part of it. The whole place is mind-blowingly huge. We took an afternoon to tour it, just part of the benefits of a training camp in a great location.
More photos and podcast to come! Enjoy!
