ZERO TO IRONMAN FINISHER IN 5 MONTHS. How I Did It.

In my 1st year of triathlon, I completed 9 triathlons including sprint distance, Olympic distance and Ironman distance. I learned some very valuable lessons during that time that still apply to my strategy today. In this video I share important things I wish I knew as a rookie triathlete. I hope you gain value and insight from my "science experiment in triathlon" and would love to hear your thoughts below in the comments. Can you relate to these experiences? What tips would you add?
Thanks for watching, and ROCK ON!!!!

Yes! It also “takes the pressure” off which I find makes the race more enjoyable 😊

Great video

[@courtneysmithtriathlon]

Thank you Darren! That means a lot coming from you 😊🙏

You're so right about getting there early. Especially because roads around the around the race venue are probably closed for the race already, traffic is redirected, and whatever mapping device you're using probably doesn't know about it. I nearly missed my last 70.3 because my wife's boyfriend kept hitting dead end after dead end!

[@courtneysmithtriathlon]

Oh gosh yes! The roads are always closed and often you have to walk a good distance to check in. I’m glad you didn’t miss your 70.3, but I am sorry it was stressful. I have been in that situation too and it’s not fun!

I hope you and your wife’s boyfriend didn’t fall out over it!
