Train in ocean or surf conditions when possible, and master sighting technique to swim a straight line in open water.
Focus on sustained power and aerodynamics for the flat bike course — time trial position and pacing are key.
Practice running at a consistent pace on flat terrain — tempo runs and negative splits will pay off on race day.
For a full IRONMAN, rehearse your nutrition strategy during long training sessions — aim for 60-90g of carbs per hour on the bike.
