Tag: 70.3 Half Ironman

A common problem for triathletes is doing too much volume in the final lead up to an event. It is important to taper off your training prior to an event so you don’t arrive at the state line carrying residual fatigue. Within this session are aspects that simulate a triathlon or open water swim race with the increased pace at the start, and the over kick towards the end of the session, simulating the final push towards the swim exit. This session will benefit triathletes of all distances, particularly Ironman 70.3 and Olympic distance triathletes, as well as other open-water swimmers in the final couple of weeks prior to their event.
