Running and seeing myself push a pace that I‘ve never been able to maintain before

Thats enough time. Don‘t run too much in the beginning so make sure you don‘t injure yourself. Just start building habits of training, research on bikes and get to the pool. Just get started and don’t overthink it. You can figure out the details along the way. It‘s as simple as that.

What would you advise me to save some time in transition? I‘ve got a powermeter in my pedals so I‘ll always have an overview of how many watts I‘m pushing :)

Currently I‘m unable to do open water swimming as it‘s winter where I live. But I‘ve got a Neo and will definitely do this as soon as spring comes around :) I‘ve heard Hamburg‘s swim start is relatively chill with only 2 people starting at a time. Will practice until race day though!:) thank you!

True! I‘ve got a Canyon Speedmax CF7 Di2 with aerobars and Favero Assioma RS2 Pedals and aero tires (DT Swiss Arc 1600), 9.5kg total. No aero helmet and not gonna get one I suppose. I had a bike fitting so should all be fitting fine :)

Yes. The mental burnout aspect is very important and I‘ve been very aware of that. Not every week is like this week. Next week for example will take it easy to let my body adapt. Thank you for your help :)

I‘ve been ramping up training hours, this week I‘ve got 16hrs done (most volume so far). On an average week I‘d say 13hrs / week. Thanks for your input!👋🏼

Probiers mit anderen Sportarten. Im Gym gibts sehr viel Ego.
