⚡ How do I train for an Ironman in my 40s 📢 I am participating in my 5th Ironman 70.3 next week, and I usually get a lot of questions about why I am so passionate about racing an Ironman 70.3, so here it is! An Ironman 70.3 race refers to the total distance in miles (113km): 1.9KM swimming – 90k cycling – 21.1k running. ◼ To make it easier, I found a parallel between engaging in an Ironman 70.3 race and my day-to-day work. You need strong dedication, a well-thought-out strategy, a lot of perseverance, and, finally, you experience significant personal growth. ◼ Similarly to business, I set objectives for my race, establish a plan, work on my preparation to build up my endurance while maintaining resilience. Even though it can be solitary, an Ironman is very similar to business, and collaboration is key; it's teamwork ◼ For me, partnering with a buddy is key: I have two friends racing with me in Geelong on Sunday, 24th. This has been a game-changer as we could maintain a good level of motivation and team spirit Sports and business have a lot of similarities, providing ongoing opportunities for growth and development. My commitment to completing an Ironman helps me a lot in my professional development."

Never done an Ironman or triathlon? They're not as scary as you might think; here's my 3 top tips; These were recorded at the Swansea Ironman 70.3 last weekend, but they apply to ANY triathlon if you're new to the sport. SWIM - don't get caught up in the melee. ↳ hang back & take the turns wide if you're nervous BIKE - don't go off like a scalded cat ↳ theres a long way so preserve some energy RUN - don't think of the whole distance ↳ make small targets & break it down - it'll be done before you know it. MOST OF ALL - enjoy it. It's probably the best thing you'll ever do!

Why I like the challenge of marathon training... Going all in on something is the best thing you can ever do. Life wasn’t meant to be lived in between the lines and doing a bunch of things mediocrely. That’s why people get addicted to marathons and running, because it's all on you and there's so much pride when you do well. You did it every step of the way. Even if you don't run, maybe there is something else you like to do. So, let's take on this #MotivationalMonday with the mindset of going all in and doing something great! Remember, you're meant to do something great. Everybody is. #dosomethinggood #motivation #healthandwellness #fitnessmotivation #athletes #femaleathletes #running
