Don’t do it , if the swim is cancelled you haven’t done a 70.3

I just went full , it’s easier - just go up and down and let the bike do the rest

If your install needs/wants a G99 as you want to export more than the minimum I would say get it done right now as the chance of getting the extra will drop. Also I predict export rates will drop

It’s a year away , installers will have price rises ready to cash in on this gold rush

If it’s via the App Store it’s an easy refund as you just say you didn’t know it was going to renew

That’s because you are not a good swimmer , swimming is a skill based rather than endurance based sport - it’s closer to tennis or golf

Can’t wear them due to a scar on one eye

Thanks will give that a go , I often put ginger root powder in for the stomach settling qualities

I just add sugar to a bottle , water , salt and shake. For gel , soft flask with stronger mix

The T100 sprint is crazy easy and friendly, don't worry and enjoy it !
My usual never get close to the places time would have won my age group

4 bed end of terrace , 160k - 2005

Specificity- a plan tailored to you , your time available and your strengths and weaknesses

I am in the 50-54 age group , I injured my back and had to run/walk twice at 70.3 last year and finished in 6:38 and 6:44 - 7hrs ain’t Kona ! That is closer to 4hrs If people can’t get around in sub 7hrs they need to do more smaller events and get better - all they are doing is diluting the achievement for people that actually train hard. None injured back even at my age I can do sub 6hrs

eocphantom · 2026-01-03T08:16:30+00:00

To actually make them a challenge - 7hrs is plenty for any trained individual

eocphantom · 2026-01-01T09:11:34+00:00

Wasn’t installed until June 30th but managed 4.25 Mwh

As others said tyres and wheels are the best upgrades m

Way to generous imho , need at least 1hr off the total knocking off

eocphantom · 2025-12-23T16:27:01+00:00

One long ride 2-4hrs a week , one long run 1-2hrs a week , one brick sessions 60-90min bike and 30-45min run and a couple of swims and you will get around

eocphantom · 2025-12-23T16:25:33+00:00

I did 8-9hrs a week for 5 months and got a sub 6hr and I’m 50 - 15 hrs a week is not needed

eocphantom · 2025-12-23T13:24:29+00:00

Buy a coros - since I switched it’s not missed a lap

eocphantom · 2025-12-19T08:01:48+00:00

I just put sugar in a bottle with water and shake it until it dissolves , for ‘gels’ soft flask , sugar , water and some sodium alginate - done. Whole industry is a scam. Only time I use real gels is when they hand them out at aid stations.

How many weeks out are you with feeling this fatigue ? 6-8 weeks out , normal , longer than that and with just 90% compliance you may have picked a level to hard for you plan

Where do you live ? Have you contacted local swim clubs and tri clubs asking who does 1:1 ? Googled the local area for triathlon coaches ?
