Off The Tangents: Hard Courses & Ironman W/ Coach Tillery


Off the tangents is a bi weekly podcast presented by MileSplit Georgia. Eventually the episodes will be featured on podcast networks (once we figure out how that process works). On Sunday the hosts completed their first ever Ironman Triathlon. And it was hard. So we discuss that and also the hard courses that we saw over the weekend with Carrollton and Milton, possibly the two hardest courses in the state. We compare our experiences in the race to coaching high school and the lessons we all learn in this sport of running as well. And then we also digest some of the action from the weekend. We also brought on guest host Coach Clayton Tillery from West Forsyth High School, who has completed many triathlons in his day and even qualified for the world championships once.
