There’s only 6 weeks left until I hit my first Ironman 70.3 in Western Sydney. Here are my top 3 takeaways for anyone looking to do one someday 👌

1. Live slow, die old
Stole this from my boys at pjohnsontailors but it’s true when it comes to running too. No need to be a hero every run. Name of the game is run slow enough, to run for longer. I still have a few speedy sessions every now and then, but I’ve learnt to drive slow on my cruisy runs especially for how my body feels and for my brain to go places.

2. Fuel forward
If you want to move forward with your training, then you need to eat more to keep up with the energy spent. I suck as this. Most days I have graccejonees forcing me to scoff down my food when I’m busy stabbing people at proformphysio proform.northrocks. Thankfully my sister handles all my nutrition for me fueldfwrd. I’m as light as a feather and my body has never felt better. I’m also running longer, swimming faster and holding 3W/kg+ on average for my zwift which is unheard of for me.

3. Sleep well
I don’t have a whoop band but my Garmin gives metrics I need. Getting into routine, in bed by 830pm and getting 8hrs average a night. This is a huge flex for me. I haven’t seen 8hrs average since I was in primary school. I’m tying this in with floats + saunas at my favs city.cave.rousehill city.cave.bellavista and now my local city.cave.dural which helps me sleep better!

I’m sure I’ll learn more lessons along the way but for anyone beginning their journey, these have been golden.

Comment below if you’re training for one too because I need more training friends 🥲
