How To (Not) Mess Up Your Race

A podcast to help you Train Smarter and Race Faster. Hosted by expert Triathlon coach, Australian Ironman Champion and 15 x Aus Age group Champion Gerard Donnelly, and his son, multiple Triathlon + Cycling Aus Age Group Champion Jordy Donnelly.

It's been a while, but more and more of us are looking to 2021 with genuine races on the calendar again.

So which race should we pick? Should we go for an IM? A 70.3? The biggest Gran Fondo?

In this episode Gerard breaks down the factors his athletes MUST consider when selecting a race.

If you don't do these things, you risk having a horrible race experience.

In the episode we talk about:

Turning a covid mistake into a major cycling win
How to sprint well at the end of a race
Being a good runner vs a good triathlon runner
The race Gerard did this year which ranks as hard as Kona Ironman
Gerard's minimum requirements of an athlete who wants to do an Ironman
How many hours should you really be training for?
How long should your longest ride and run be? (Hint: I bet it's longer than you think)
The list of questions you need to answer if you expect to complete a triathlon

As always, we covered a lot!
