Summary: Lets talk taper, the "hay is in the barn" and its time to wind down 6 months of Ironman training. In this episode I talk about my thoughts on the importance of the taper and I enlist the help of two other great podcasts to give insight into taper. I also go off triathlon topic and talk to Marc the Bike Geek about a very harrowing (read: near fatal) mountaineering expedition he recently had in the Himalayas, one in which he drew on the strength of triathlon training to get through.
