Hi william. I've a question please. So, I've a olympic distance triathlon June 1st. So, 3 weeks.
The issue is, my 1500m in the pool is constantly around 48- 50 mins. The cutoff is 55 mins on the day.
I'm doing the distance constantly under the time limit, while taking loads of breaks (to catch my breath) I'm not swim fit.
I'm still worried about the open water swim (it's a river) even tho I'm getting under the cutoff time by 5 mins in thr pool and taking an many breaks.
A part of me is confident, the other is telling me I won't make the cutoff. The first side of me is I'm telling myself I'll go a bit faster on the day of fear of not making the cutoff time, due to adrenaline
Any advice?? Getting nervous for it now! Thanks for any help/advice you could give
Hey! I think you will do great! Like you mentioned, it is likely your adrenaline will kick in and you'll be able to conquer more than you think. The only thing I would recommend if you haven't done an open water swim is get to the venue early to get into the water ( they usually allow you to around the swim start like 30 minutes or so before start time). I've noticed when I go to complete a race I always freak out during the beginning of the swim for whatever reason. But getting in the water for a few minutes to warm up before the race had helped me calm down if nerves are an issue as well.
During the swim you can essentially take as many breaks as you would in a pool depending on how well you can tread water. Don't try and go as fast as you can as you may fatigue quickly, but also don't go at too slow of a pace incase you do take breaks during the swim.
Current can be an advantage, especially in a river.
Overall, just try and relax and have fun. If you do happen to not make the cutoff time, no biggie, it happens. You'll just get out there next time and crush it.
Wow so amazing never knew a triathlete could be so hot 😵🤤🥰
