Description

This was the next step in my quest to complete a full-distance Ironman in December in under 11 hours.


Last weekend I got to step it up from Sprint distance triathlons to double the distance in the Olympic category


Swim - 1.5km


Bike - 40km


Run - 10km


The journey to this stage has been very rewarding and constantly learning and thankfully progressing at a pace I find suitable.


Today ill talk through



  • How my swimming has progressed.



  • Why I bought a new bike and the price I paid.



  • The no-so-ideal week leading into the event.



  • How to prepare for each leg.



  • Mistakes I made and lessons learnt.

  • What to do when you cramp both hamstrings 2km from finishing.

  • My next event Busso 100
