Training Advices..
Hey all!
In response to a bunch of posts I've been seeing, I was hoping to get some advice...
Attached is my setup - how many 70.3s should I be completing before you all think I am ready for my first full? I think I am going to reach out to IMF and get license to them so that the 'Catabolic Solutions' Ironman can be adopted by all and take dethrone Kona. It's really just superior.
You're probably asking how I mimic the open water start and T1/T2? Easy.
I wear a 3/4 and put 22oz of peanut butter strategically on the inside before zipping, mostly around my shoulders, chest, and buttocks.. Then when the horn goes, my girlfriend opens the bedroom door to let my Australian Shepherd out, not pictured (Dog and girlfriend)
Then for transitions? Well, I run out into the cul de sac and and do two whole spinnies, touch put my neighbor... DEBORAH >:( ... s mailbox, open it, close it, and put the flaggy up, then full sprint back into the apartment to finish the transition! Friggin Deborah said she'd contact United States Postal Service if she sees me touching her mailbox again, and it's like - - I only took a few pieces of mail, ONE TIME! How was I supposed to know it was the special semi annual Women in Trout Fishing edition??! And I gave it back after I finished made Xeroxs for me and my support crew!
Anyway, sorry guys, didn't mean to go on a tangent - this post is supposed to be about achieving my peak performance and winners blow by Deborah's like elk crossing signs on HWY 92.
Any advice welcome!
