Lace Up, and Relax with Chrissie

I love Lace Up and the Relax recording for AudioFuel. Your enthusiasm for sport just brings an immense smile on my face every time I get out for a run or ride. I truly love this idea and have shared how I much I enjoy it with many of my friends athletes and non athletes alike. - amitysharp

I really enjoyed all of your recordings but the "Lace up" one was very motivational and I felt psyched up and ready to run. Thanks and keep more coming. - l.skelly2010
 
Loving the Audiofuel from Chrissie. Hope I can turn into a runner by June. Very nearly signed up for my first Tri today after listening to the Lace up track!! It's hard not to be motivated when a world champion is shouting in your ears!! - juliejcameron
 
This workout kicks your butt and keeps you motivated as well. The relax portion makes me feel like I'm getting a massage in a spa. Chrissie awesome, awesome, and awesome!!!! - simmons31
 
Thanks for the relaxation MP3. I teach yoga to athletes and I STILL have to remind myself to relax! Good luck for your future races, too. Laura Denham-Jones

Chrissie, you are the best! Thanks for sharing your insight in these awesome training sessions. This year will be my first Ironman and I'm glad to have you as a virtual training partner. - Rob

Chrissie, I am an English Police Officer working in Northern Ireland, because of security concerns I train alone. With Audio fuel I can now train with you, the most inspirational person and successful Brithish triathlete ever. Thank you, it really is fun and hard work. I have even had a T shirt made up saying I've trained with Chrissie Wellington! - neil802
 
I love the positive messages such as "consider the possibility that your limits aren't were you think that are" even when I am not using the audiofuel podcasts the sayings stick with me and inspire me to push - maryestall
 
Thank you so much, Chrissie! hearing you in my headphones is mesmorizing! then, of course, you yell at me to pick up the pace and BAM! back to reality!! I love it! be well, - Gene
 
THIS IS AN AWESOME PRODUCT AND YOU ARE A TRUE INSPIRATION. THANKS A LOT - lfmoliveira1
 
Truly awesome mix of music and motivational chat from Chrissie on both the running and turbo sessions, my first choice for speed work. Many thanks to both Chrissie and AudioFuel! - gilesthurston
 
Hey Chrissie, Using your audio fuel Tri Harder program has really helped me step up my training. When I am done a work out, I am truly spent! I can feel myself getting stronger and faster! I started as a casual triathlete trying to control my weight, I now feel like I can actually push past limits and become good at this. YOUR MOTIVATION AND POSITIVE ATTITUDE WITH AUDIOFUEL AND ALL AROUND IS AN INSPIRATION. If I am honest, bad attitudes have always kept me away from sports and I never considered myself a "sport minded" person. However, with role model's like you, its showing me that great positive encouraging attitudes exist! If your mission is to inspire people to get off the couch and work as hard as they can and learn to enjoy sport... I can tell you mission accomplished in my case! after 40 years of avoiding sport , I am 70 pounds down, and Ironman, and pushing harder than ever! Keep it up and I hope to meet you in person at Ironman 70.3 UK this year for a book signing!! - darren
 
Really enjoy your Ride harder audiofuel tracks. Struggling to love the Run harder but I am sure I will learn to love them the fitter I get. Great idea to combine Chrissie and Audiofuel, and having met her at the London launch it makes it all a bit more personal rather than some random voice. Thanks - tonyfootballcoach
 
Love the fact that you have taken the time to produce something like this. They are just awesome. Thank you x - nz_jane
 
I think the audio training is fantastic motivating and easy to understand and follow. I think chrissie is a great, motivating and driving force. Chrissie your are an inspiration and an icon for women who don't believe they can achieve. You have proved that anything can be achieved. Thanks for the great motivation and training. Your words have been inspirational and inspire me to train harder. Thank you - Reggie
 
 

Ride Harder

Fantastic idea and a great workout! Thanks so much for finally making me push harder on the trainer at home! -  Deborahspeed

Thanx for the motivation! All the hours on the rollers are way less boring now :-)
 
Chrissie, I've bought your ride series for the turbo. Its clear I've been a bit too "relaxed" in my previous sessions!! You push me hard and I love it. The bit at the end where you say thanks for letting you ride with me made me smile. If only I could keep up with you! Best wishes for 2012. Kay
 
It's brilliant. I don't actually own a bike yet (must sort that out before race day) so your 'Ride Harder 1' has been essential. Rather than plodding along, I'm fired up and pushing hard until the very last. The confidence it's already giving me for race day in incredible. Thank you. Mark PS. I saw a Youtube video of you coming out of the water in first place at Kona with a huge, beaming smile on your face. If that's not a recommendation for triathlon, I don't know what is! - marktmorris
 
Love the ride harder 97 mins session. Hurts like hell but brilliant!! - graham.aj
 
Bit sceptical about this kind of thing - British reserve and all that - but think that it's a brilliant idea in concept, and in practice. Seems like the next thing that you should work on together are some videos along the same lines - i.e. a first person 'ride' with Chrissie where you have to keep her wheel, for example. Similar to the Sufferlandia stuff, but just a bit more classy. Actually, a lot more classy. Could be really innovative - and a great training aid. PS - what a great athlete! So inspiring. - nicholas.gill

A really terrific workout - give structure to what had been fairly aimless sessions on the turbo. Use turbo sessions as variety when I'm sick of running. CW is an absolute marvel - hopefully some of the positive messages will pop into my head when I've got 115km of running in my legs - Jon

 

Hi Chrissie, I've been using your audiofuel programme to train for 3 triathlons this year. I genuinely love riding in-doors now and actually look forward to waking up at 6:15 to do my rides (i've never got up earlier than I've had to). I've yet to use the run harder sessions yet but will start on those soon. Actually I did want to ask if you had an olympic distance triathlon training programmes you could share based on these sessions? Best wishes David

 

Greetings to my new friends across the big pond… First and foremost, a hearty thank you. 

I recently downloaded many of the audio fuel files with Chrissie Wellington. Reason being, not to long ago, I was kind of in a training slump and have found them online. I have found them to be exceptionally helpful during my shorter workouts as I prepare for Ironman Lake Placid this July 2012. This will be my sixth IM, and as many of you know, at times we need a good swift kick in the fanny to get us going, not because we don’t love the things we do, it’s just that we need an encouraging word or words from someone to get us going again....

That’s is why I really get into hearing Chrissie talk me through the workouts, it helps me greatly to have a virtual coach talking to me as I go. You see, I started doing triathlon about 12 years ago because my wife had cancer and I wanted to be busy supporting Sarah (my wife) and those whom I could though sport. In light of these things, I am grateful that the Audio Fuel music has come along with Chrissie’s words. With the combination of the music and Chrissie's words, they have really encouraged me to visualized race day and punch through the harder workouts. In closing, I would like to thank the good folks at Audio Fuel, excellent work! I truly appreciate what you’ve done.

I would like to thank Chrissie for taking the time out of her very busy schedule to help people that love the sport of triathlon. Thank you for helping me…. Respectfully, Lars

Run Faster

Ran harder this morning. Already can tell the difference! - stephen.thomas

Wonderful stuff - have now bought most of the run sessions from itunes & your site. My Garmin shows me that using Audiofuel is second only to running with my club for intensity & effort & luckily have a little used grass track only 300yrds from my front door so no traffic. - patricklarke
 
Hi Chrissie, Thanks very much for tri-harder. I use the bike and run intervals. For the last 2 years I have concentrated on long distance training for Ironman France and Challenge Henley and have lost some running pace. Also might be due to age (55). My coach Annie Emmerson has been using intervals to improve my pace and we use run faster. Last week I did an 8.5 mile x-country race in 58m.09s, came 17th and won the V50 age group. So it has worked. I find your voice inspiring and now use "your limits may not be where you think they are" as an affirmation. Thanks again and good luck with your new "post Ironman" ventures whatever they are. Best wishes - Cris Swinhoe
 
I have been recommending it to all my friends. I am not a great runner but I find running to a set beat so much easier. I doubt I'll ever be an ironman but I know these tracks will go a long way to improving my triathlon times. Cheers - Cumledgeestate
 
I can only say wow, I never thought that I would be able to run so fast and sustain it.Yes I really enjoy it many thanks for this - brittalue

I am currently using Chrissie's interval training which always gets me sweating and works me to an inch of my life.. I love it ! keeps me motivated to the end and I like the encourangement and your words of wisdom..next purchase is the bike session :) Thank you for doing this, all the best - Richard

You're very inspirational Chrissie. your audio fuel has really made me reassess where my physical limits are x - Nicola

I'm 100% satisfied with your AudioFuel Chrissie! This is exactly what I needed! You are an amazing athlete and I hope I get to meet you someday. No athlete has ever inspired me the way you do. - Marisol

Chrissie, you are an inspiration! I find it amazing that you can achieve what you do, and all with a smile on your face. Buying your AudioFuel sessions has been the biggest boost to my (very amateur) running training yet! Thanks a million, and the best of luck in whatever you plan for the future - James

I have been using run faster 1 and 2 and can definitely notice a difference in my running speed. The music is great and I now know my max speed is a lot faster than I thought it was. Thanks! - Sarah
