Gwen Jorgensen won gold in the 2016 Olympic Triathlon, and she’s shooting for a repeat victory this year in Paris. As motorpacing was a big part of her training in the lead-in to the 2016 Olympics, she is using a similar formula this season.
I tag along for a motorpace session – her third (!) workout of the day – as she does an intricate set of intervals, jumping around the scooter for a few seconds, tucking back in the draft, and riding alongside but in the wind to mimic the demands of Olympic triathlon racing.
Thanks for letting me tag along, Gwen and Pat!
