It’s time for some Rock’n’Roll! Come with me on a tour through the last part of the IronMan 70.3 in Weymouth: The Run.

IronMan 70.3: I survived the swim. So now the enjoyment can begin. Let me walk you through part 2 of the race: The 90 km hilly bike ride.

The IronMan 70.3 in Weymouth was an incredible and life changing experience. Let me walk you through my Race Day starting with the swim. Not just any swim but THE swim of my life.

Let’s start at the beginning and have a look at what & how I packed my three transition bags for the IronMan 70.3, what I will do differently next time.

I DID IT! I seriously finished the IronMan 70.3 last weekend and I’m still processing what happened. So let’s start with the mantras that helped me lining up at the start of this race.

“Are you crazy?! You’re going to do an IronMan 70.3 without having done any other smaller triathlon?” I hear that a lot! Well, it wasn’t my original plan to have such a rocket start. Have a look what my initial plans were and why they changed.

This is a bit of an usual post for me because I’m going to share some training stats with you and explain what they mean to me.

Part 3: This post is an important one for me personally. It feels more like a motivational speech to myself on how to overcome my deep fear of swimming the open water.

Part 2: In this post, we’ll go back to 2019 again and have a look at how my transition from weight lifting to triathlon training looked like.
