He's definitely smarter than me and he's probably smarter than you. He graduated from the United States Air Force Academy with a degree in Aeronautical Engineering.
His new book, Faster: Demystifying the Science of Triathlon Speed, covers ways to pick up free speed that aren't training based.
In this episode we discuss:
How to gain free speed by your choice of tires
How important is your bike's weight?
Does weight matter in your choice of racing flat?
Is a treadmill faster or slower than road running, and why?
