What Leanne has learnt from 18 Ironmans!

What Leanne has learnt from 18 Ironmans!

Are you ready to delve into the mind of an incredible triathlete who's completed 18 Ironman races?

Yes, you heard that right, eighteen!

Leanne, an age-group athlete, has been tackling triathlons for a whopping 30 years. Not only that, but she balances this passion with raising three children and working full-time. Her experience is vast, her knowledge is deep, and today, she's ready to share her wisdom with us.

One of Leanne’s biggest takeaways has been the importance of flexibility in training and nutrition. While we need to strive for consistency, life is unpredictable, and we need to adapt when things don’t go as planned. She advises you to do whatever you can rather than nothing at all. If you miss a session or have a bad week, don’t stress. Pick up where you left off and keep going.

Something else that made a huge difference for Leanne was having a solid support system with people who share her passion. Whether its friends joining you for a training session or being a part of online groups, having a community can be a tremendous source of motivation and support.

Like many athletes do, Leanne was “winging it” with nutrition for many years because she was reluctant to invest in professional guidance. She would often train on an empty stomach, unaware of the impact it had on her performance and recovery. When she joined the Triathlon Nutrition Academy, things made a dramatic improvement. Now, she doesn't just think about fuelling up on race day, but she meticulously plans her nutrition in the days leading up to and following her training sessions.

Leanne’s 30-year triathlon journey is far from over, and neither is yours. Plan smart, train hard, and make the most of your nutrition to reach your full potential!
