Episode Fixing Swim-Start Panic, Run/Walk Fuelling & Aero Bars vs Faster Bike: IRONMAN Q&A | Ep 593
Coach Rob answers your IRONMAN training questions. This week:
• Run/walk strategy when aid stations don't line up with your 9/1 rhythm... • Why fuelling beats racing until the final 10K... • Why you can't get your breath at the swim start, and the breathing trick that controls your pace... • How to train between races... • The 2-3 things that matter most stepping up from 70.3 to full IRONMAN... • Aero bars vs a faster road bike: which actually saves you more time... • Zone 2 training when you live (and race) somewhere hilly... • Plus listener stories from first-time finishers around the world.
