HOW TO COMPLETE AN IRONMAN | 3 Months Training

  • čas přidán 5. 10. 2018
  • Here is a peak at my first ever Ironman with only 3 months of training. I was a swimming at Michigan State University but since graduating, I barely swam. I was looking for a challenge to push myself mentally, physically, and spiritually and an Ironman caught my attention. Emilia Romagna in Cervia Italy fit in with my travels so I signed up! With no Ironman experience, a vegan diet, and internet resources, I trained myself to get in shape to complete a 140.6 Mile triathlon.
    Leave a comment below if you have specific questions! I want to create a lot more content as I become a Vegan Ironman athlete and push myself further and set goals.

      Richard Searfoss ikr, Logan’s always getting a bad rap and mike and Spencer are grouped into but I see past that bs, the podcast is so relatable and real. It’s a great group

      @markydrew7183 Před 5 lety +11

      CZcams is a great way to educate yourself and your not really looking at it the right way when it comes to a waste of energy

    • @dstenberg
      @dstenberg Před 4 lety +9

      Complaining about things that waste your energy is also a waste of energy :P

    • @vledermaus
      @vledermaus Před 4 lety +3

      It definitely is a waste of energy and time if you overdo it...and educating yourself only gets you so far if you don't put it to proper use, so to the guy saying you're not looking at it the right way....you definitely are not, there's a healthy amount of watching CZcams but watching hours and hours every day is not healthy, especially when it's mindless stuff and yeah it's good to relax with it, but it can easily lead to laziness.

    I have the same thought process as you. My first sprint was last year, am doing the Herbal tri in LA this year - an Olympic. Once I complete that - am going for half iron man. Consistently throwing myself in the deep - its an amazing exercise of evolution. Am having new breakthroughs everyday. I don't think there is anything remotely close that is so gratifying. Keep moving forward #berelentless
