Humorous anecdote about training/family balance. On a discussion board people were talking about whether wearing your wedding ring on the swim was a good idea.

@AnthonyLock92 5 лет назад

Just a solid tip to try and fit all the training in. (I train usually 14 hours a week with a full time job) the more you are organised the easier it gets. Meal prep, get your kit out the night before if its a pre work session. You will be surprised what you can do. a 3 hour session after work is not impossible if you have food prepared in advanced for a quick dinner for example.

@miguelsaez340 5 лет назад

I believe a good advice is: find love in each discipline. Let “joy” on swimming, biking and running come to you. Any of those 3 can become as long as hell if you don’t commit to it and can kick you out of the race if you don’t take it into consideration. Better than wanting to become an Ironman, which sounds good, you want to keep swimming, cycling and running, when that day you find yourself thinking it’s not for you. Which is something all of us have to go through every once in a while. Hope I explained myself

@plantpoweredhealth9383 4 года назад

Totally agree. Make it a lifestyle of health and fitness and do an occasional event whether short or long,it doesn't even need to be official, just recorded with a Garmin or similar. Multisport should be a lifelong pursuit whether 3 hours or 20 hours a week.

Thank you GTN for helping to get me there

@aklamo 5 лет назад

Nope. I’m not IRONMAN ready. Can’t make it through the swim without debilitating cramps. IM 70.3 is more my style (at least until I can figure out how to survive the swim). However, if I never do a full IM distance event, I’d be ok with that. 70.3s aren’t anything to sniff at.

@nightsfalling 5 лет назад

I think that is also good to do a smaller race not just because of the practice of going from swimming, to biking, and then running, but you can see if you like the sport and are willing to invest on the equipment. For example, my first sprint triathlon, I did it during summer time so I didn't have a wetsuit, and I did it in a kid's road bike. with regular running clothes. So if you decide to do more races you can invest little by little.

@joeyc8546 5 лет назад

I made a video about triathlon gear and how much it would cost and came up with a little over $1500 USD. (not counting the 700 Ironman entry fee) And that's still a lot of budget gear.

I'd even be okay with it happening in 3 years. I'd say Ironman training is the ultimate technique to build patience as the main thing you're doing it for is VERY far away. But on the other hand 2 months go by in lightspeed. So i'm wondering if 2-3 years are actually that far away.

@yrussq 4 года назад

Well, i haven't done the Ironman but from my experience of building proper form i must say 6-12 hrs per week in a 6 month for Ironman is beyond optimistic. You need to be already a good athlete and you should be pretty young to reach anything with 6 months only. 3 running swimming cycling 1.5hr sessions would give 13.5 hrs already and you need some muscles building in a gym. I'd question if it's actually would be enough for half Ironman. Plus with that rush there's a high chance of injury that would instantly nullify all your work and postpone the relaunch of the training. So a year is the very minimum, more likely year and a half.

@pooky2626 5 лет назад

Start a savings plan. this was an excellent video to help you. My advice is if you can afford it. Open a separate account. Cal it your Ironman account. Can you afford $25 every pay period? In one year you will have over $600. I get paid weekly. I do a $100 a week. This pays for the whole trip. Race fee. Flight. accommodation. I have two destination races this year. I used my points for a reduced fare flight to Switzerland. Airbnb for 9 days was $500. My other race is Morocco and Marrakesh 70.3. I live in Canada. So I probably have the most expensive flights in the world. I have credit cards that are travel rewards. Get these to help supplement your cost. Hope some of this helps. Remember the Ironman motto. "Nothing is Impossible"......Mine is "Impossible is Nothing"

@pooky2626 5 лет назад

@@ljk5708 I have done some running events as well. I was surprised at the price difference as well. Thinking about it. With the swim. You need boats and lifeguards. The bike, you need road closures or at the very least police presence at most intersections. I think that adds hugely to the cost of triathlon vs. Running events. My first Ironman was $400. IM Canada came to $865 Canadian for 2020. I prefer the 70.3 series. Those are around $400-$500. Hope you get to do an Ironman. It is an event filled with energy. The feeling you get crossing that finish line is undescribable. Good luck in all your athletic pursuits.

I've recently read in a very good book about endurance training/lifestyle that back in the day, one of the authors, Mark Sisson, had to pay 85$ to enter Ironman Hawaii. Hahahahahahaha

Start with a sprint. I started at 112 kilos. At the start of the year all I did was swim. No running. I hadn't ridden a bike in over 20 years. Did my first sprint in March. Next sprint end July. Weekly long run now up to 15k and I do a half marathon this weekend. Weekly long bike is now 100k+ (on an old steel mountain bike). Hope to do a 70.3 mid next year although I could probably "survive" one in a month or two! I'm at 110 kilos now. It can be done!

I'll be racing in Italy my first Ironman in 8 days and I was hoping in some extra boost, then 8:22 came... C'mon Mark that's not cool :)

So how much around would it cost? (Minus the pool & gym fees and minus the food)

@Nessunego 3 года назад

Training between 12 to 20 hours a week. My money goes in food, running shoes and lack of earning for the time I spend training instead of working. I burn around 4000 calories per day.

I’m a 16 year old half-Ironman and I think I would literally die if I tried the ironman.

I have a question. I have the basic kit for a sprint triathlon but I don't have a wetsuit or a fancy bike. Do I NEED those to go for an ironman?

@HikinCatfish 4 года назад

Wetsuit may be more beneficial depending on the venue (and a smaller $$ investment) where a decent road bike should get you through an iron an distance race. I'm using my cyclocross bike with trimmer tires for my upcoming HIM distance race. But I'm there to complete, not compete as an age grouper, so that may also affect your choices. Just my 2 cents.

@trimad6128 10 месяцев назад

I think you never feel you’re ready although I’ve never stood on the start line feeling I haven’t done enough but it does creep in to your mind half way through😬.I think if you’ve been consistent in your training for a good 6-8 months you’ll get through it all being well

@richardhudson4649 5 лет назад

How many are fit enough to finish in under 17hours within 2 weeks?

@wildsurfer12 3 года назад

To get ready for Ironman you first need an arc reactor, a suit of armour and a lot of money.
