Description

Could I possibly go sub 5 hours for my biggest triathlon yet??


Swim - 2km


Bike - 80km


Run - 18km


My dream has always been to take part in events here in Busselton having come here for 3 years to watch half and full-distance Ironmans I now get a chance to taste what it will be like come December and if I'm delusional to think I could do a full ironman under 11 hours.




I talk though....



  • The issues I had leading into the event with my bike.

  • The logistics of preparing for a 5-hour event.

  • Carb loading for 3 days and race nutrition.

  • How the swim went from a weakness to my strongest leg.

  • Controlling what you can at the moment and forget all the noise.

  • How Ultras have helped me when the body and mind thinks it's time to stop.


An incredible journey over the last 9 months and in 8 more months I'm back to challenge myself in the biggest event of them all A full-distance ironman .
