    Episode 315: Purple Patch Case Studies - with Rachel Brown and Tiger Paton
    May 22 2024
    Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. This week, we continue our series on Purple Patch Case Studies, where we hear first-hand experiences of time-starved athletes on their journey towards improved performance in sports and life. This week, Matt welcomes Purple Patch athletes Rachel Brown and Tiger Paton. Rachel, a busy mother of seven boys, is a passionate runner with a wonderful story of shifting perspectives. By embracing the tri-squad approach, Rachel evolved her understanding of training and multi-sport to become a faster runner and unlocked abilities she never considered. Tiger Paton, a well-known figure in the Purple Patch community, serves as our squad specialist and program manager. She began her journey as a Purple Patch Squad athlete several years ago. She shares an inspiring lesson about perseverance. As a new athlete, she fully used all the tools in the program to overcome injury and fatigue. Struggling to find time for her health and needing a change, Tiger found support in the Purple Patch community. She integrated training into her life and wholeheartedly embraced her journey as a triathlete. Tiger’s story is an outstanding example of athlete development in sport and life. Both case studies highlight valuable lessons and practical advice to boost your progress or inspire you to kick-start your journey towards your future self.

    Episode 313: Free Speed - Practical Strategies for Getting Faster
    May 8 2024

    Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast with IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon.

    In this week's episode, Matt shares valuable insights into how athletes can improve their speed without spending more time, money, or energy than they already have. Matt believes that instead of relying solely on metrics and data, you can achieve "free speed", or "Smart Speed" as he calls it, by thinking outside the box and focusing on elements that maximize your overall performance. He covers various strategies that can help athletes improve their speed in all three disciplines of triathlon - swim, bike, and run. From counting strokes in the swim to taking walk breaks in the run, Matt's tips are practical, effective, and easy to apply. Whether a beginner or an experienced athlete, you'll find valuable takeaways in this two-part series.

    Part two of our Free Speed series will explore advanced topics like racecraft, mindset, and energy management. So stay tuned!
