@andrewwoodroffe@IRONMANtri Yeah last time I raced there I got overtaken by a lad with the s5 with clipons and just thought- “yeah that’s what I should have ridden”
@andrewwoodroffe@IRONMANtri Yep, think there will be a lot of people convinced on the change from Kona after that. Honest course! Mega run mate. Couldn’t quite keep myself on pace after half way and went into survival mode
We like to kid ourselves otherwise, but ultimately, your fitness is limited by your availability...
by the space you have in your life to train and recover.
6 days before his Ironman win, Gustav Iden's workout:
-100k bike
-25mi run at 6 min/mi 🤯
That seems unique, but look around, and pros are doing long runs near peak races. Is it time to question taper wisdom in some cases? Time for some uncertain fun 💪 https://t.co/SxvucEERyl
To perform well in one area, you have to underperform in other areas.
We can't be great at all things at all times.
The key is being intentional and choosing wisely. Periodize your life, and be clear on what matters. Know what you're maximizing and what you're satisficing.
