Tri 101: So you want to be an Ironman
February 19, 2018 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
You’ve raced Olympic distance triathlons and a couple of 70.3-mile events and now you want to go for the big one. At 140.6 miles, the Long Course or “Ironman” triathlon is one of sport’s epic tests of speed, strength, endurance and mental focus. It takes willpower, dedication and a structured training plan to get you there, if you want to make your race-day an unforgetable and successful experience.
Many athletes simply don’t even start this journey at all because they are overwhelmed by how to attack the preparation for such a challenge. Others rack up a lot of empty miles and waste hours on training that will get them nowhere but tired and fatigued come race day. Swimming 2.4 miles (3.8K), cycling 112 miles (180K) and running a full marathon at 26.2 miles (42.2K) is one serious feat.
Join Coach Kevin, fresh from his UltraMan journey, as he walks you through what you need to know and consider before you start this epic journey!
