Ironman 70.3
Ironman 70.3 is the abbreviation for triathlon competitions
that cover half the distance of a classical Ironman Triathlon. Also
known as medium or middle distance, this event consists of a
1.2-mile swim, 56 miles of cycling and a 13.1-mile run, i.e. a
total of 70.3 miles. It is anything but an easy option, but it
represents a fascinating challenge for any well-trained endurance
athlete. A particular highlight of the book is its great amount of
detailed training plans. There are in-depth examples of core and
peripheral training and heart-rate dependent pace levels T1-T8,
which help to illustrate the year-round training recommendations.
It also features advice on swimming, cycling and running training,
cross-training, equipment, strengthening and stretching, typical
training errors, recovery, self-motivating performance testing and
motivation tips, as well as anecdotes and emotional stories from
competitions.
