Today on the Cycling Time Trial Podcast, from Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire UK we welcome back Michael Broadwith. On June 16th, Michael broke the Land’s End to John ‘O Groat’s cycling record in a time of 43 hours 25 minutes and 13 seconds. This bettered the “unbeatable” record by around 39 minutes. While that sounds pretty comfortable, the numbers really don’t tell the story. Welcome back Michael Broadwith! It was a pleasure to have Helen Simpson joining us as well.

In "celebration" of 100 episodes, we are launching part one of the Time Trial Essential Series. These shows will pull knowledge learned from many different guests on any given topic. It eases the stress of getting guests coordinated and hopefully adds some value to the run of the show. Please let me know your thoughts on this idea at cyclingtimetrialpodcast@gmail.com or @markflorence11 on twitter.
Thanks to all who have listened and a special thanks to those who have taken the time to share your knowledge as guests. You have all done your part to make many of us a little faster by agreeing to be interviewed and it is much appreciated.
We welcome Coach Joe Beer. Joe is in Devon, UK and has 25 years of coaching experience with both time trials and triathlon. Joe is the author of three books and hosts a regular multisport podcast, jbst.com. You can learn more by visiting his website, http://www.coachjoebeer.com/. Welcome back Coach Joe Beer!
We had a very positive reaction to Joe’s first appearance when we chatted about the white paper on the jbst.com website which talked about Smarter Training and the importance of keeping the majority of your training rides at an “easy” level. You can check out episode #92 for more information on that. I like to take ideas from listeners and one suggestion that been requested and in fact re-requested is to chat about the relationship between triathlon and time trialists. I want to especially thank James Thomas for his most recent TT-tri podcast suggestion. After Joe’s first appearance I could not think of a better person to chat about this. Joe of course is a multi sport coach and in fact has himself completed five Ironman distance events.
