Thank you both! Here’s to hoping that 2021 is better than 2020, and hoping that all of the small races make it. With all of the “virtual” t-shirts I’ve gotten this year, I could make a whole new virtual race t-shirt quilt!

Hey y’all! Does anyone know if Rev3 will be offering Williamsburg as a half next year? I’ve never raced a Rev3 race and I’m not connected to the community in any way, so unfortunately I know very little about the race. I’ve seen it marked as “tentative” for June next year, but I was hoping someone might have more insights than the interwebs.…[Read more]

Yes! I love all of this! I’m going to have to check out “Be with Champions” – I’ve actually been doing the same. I’ve loved the weekly podcasts from Triathlete Mag and also recently discovered “The REAL Triathlon Podcast” (I listen on Spotify). It’s mostly pros talking about their experience being pros. It can sometimes be really serious rather…[Read more]

Hey y’all! I know many/all of us have had races cancelled or postponed this year, which can be really frustrating when you’re training for something as big as an Ironman. I was talking to someone recently and they expressed how they saw this year as a “waste” — and I definitely did not agree. So let’s take racing out for a second. I want to hear…[Read more]

Megan Tuncer replied to the topic Virtual or Practice Race? in the forum Ironman Program (IMP) for Paid Participants 4 years, 2 months ago
As of right now, my race is still on the schedule. I’m not incredibly optimistic, but I genuinely love training, so I’m sticking with the plan until I’m forced to adjust. I figure either way, I’m getting some good learning out of it.
I did a mock half about a month ago (I think?), and it’s the first DNF I’ve ever had! I definitely wasn’t keeping…[Read more]

Thanks for putting this together, AJ! I’ve loved the past webinars and a piece of me is just excited to be talking with the group again and working on improving in this sport. I’m looking forward to it.

Thanks for posting these, AJ! I have a question – yesterday I was out riding, and a man came up behind me and sat on my wheel for a couple minutes. While I usually find this annoying during regular times (please, announce yourself if you’re going to do this), I found it a bit astounding that someone did this during a pandemic… Any idea on how I…[Read more]

Megan Tuncer replied to the topic Nutrition Planning in the forum Ironman Program (IMP) for Paid Participants 4 years, 6 months ago
I know in my last Ironman, I survived on uncrustables (those little sandwiches with well, no crust). The only downside is that peanut butter can be hard to swallow if your throat is dry. The upside, is that it will remind you to hydrate real quick! They were really easy to toss in my pocket/transition bags as well.
My last race was Louisville –…[Read more]
