Ride 112 Miles In 6 Hours! | Ironman Bike Leg Tips

[@Yasharal-Instrumentals]

I spent 9h36 on the bike at Ironman Lanzarote. Spent a large amount of time wondering why l was there and convincing myself not to quit. It was mentally tough! Made the bike cutoff by 2:30 min.

i guess I'm kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream newly released tv shows online?

[@colinellis460]

@Judah Otto Definitely, have been using Flixzone for since april myself :D

@Judah Otto Thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service :) Appreciate it!!

[@judahotto2258]

@Ellis Yahir No problem :)

How did you do on the run? Did you finish the event on time?

[@drexeldragon1723]

I was stoked to ride my 70.3 split in 2:59 😅

[@kennethwedig6091]

You can't emphasize the importance of nutrition and execution enough because that's what your entire race day comes down to. With regard to execution, having a power meter is immeasurably helpful. When you know your FTP there are charts that predict what average or normalized power you should be able to maintain for a given IM distance. I went 5:57:41 for the bike split at IM Wisconsin, not an easy bike course, by being laser focused on my power and nutrition.

With the explosion of indoor training, would love a video comparing the different platforms (Rouvy, Zwift, Sufferfest, Trainer Road, others?). Thanks!

[@deanb61]

If we're talking ironman then the obvious one would be FulGaz as it's owned by ironman. The new ironman courses on there are really good, e.g. Arizona. Filmed on the morning of the race (on an eBike according to the shadow) you actually pass both aid stations and other competitors.

I went 6:15 at Ironman Mont Tremblant with ~1800m of climbing. I am in better shape, and hoping to go comfortably under 6:00 in Penticton this year, with about the same climbing. Then I should be able to run a 4:00-4:20. Now all I need is pools to reopen so I can swim

[@neillloyd67]

And the race to go ahead :)

[@christianlarsen7872]

i am signed up for mont trembling this year as my first race. any tips?

[@richardhudson4649]

@@christianlarsen7872 you will hate Duplessie both times. Do some hills. Enjoy the experience. The finish line is electric. If you have time go home shower and eat, then come back and cheer on the midnight finishers.

@@christianlarsen7872 your run time will be slower than expected. We always are for our first. I was 45min slower than I planned.

I was getting closer - then switched to Vichy which is Very Hilly & VERRRRRY Hot - now I just aim to survive :D

[@coachjohn]

Great advise especially the build up from 4 hours and the solo riding

[@SimoneChiaretta]

In my first (and only) IM distance I did 5h20 in the bike, but 1h40 in the swim (and 4h15 in the run). For a total of 11h40. I definitely have to improve my swim time, but even 20min there and doing the 4hrs marathon won’t make me go below 11hrs.

[@richardhudson4649]

I'd love to have those bike and run splits this year. Super fast.

[@pal_lokomotivet2679]

What year where you there? The year i was there i also used 1.40 in the swim because the swim course was horrible. On Norseman i used 1.11 in same temp water. 30 min more in Tallin :-)

[@truth-Hurts375]

You have to fokus more on your marathon time.

[@SimoneChiaretta]

@@pal_lokomotivet2679 it was the first year, when they did it at temperature limit. 2018 I think

[@pal_lokomotivet2679]

@@SimoneChiaretta Yes i belive we did the same time. It was freezing cold and they test each hour before the start

[@nuttynut722]

80's salmon pink.....what a color for a bike......

[@Tara_Masika]

I love it. Why not spend a whole years minimum wage earnings on a bike like that eh? I had a t-shirt and cycling short combo in that colour (with my white hi-top trainers) when I was little and it reminds me of the mousse rings from old cookery books ❤👍

[@nuttynut722]

@@Tara_Masika we certainly have different memory, while it remind me the depressing mall from 80's

[@patrickshields6620]

excellent advice here, thanks

[@nathanseago]

Hills? I don't see any hills. Come to East Tennessee for some hills. Would absolutely love to have a flat, longcourse bike route nearby.

[@kevinwalford5271]

I grew up in East TN (Knoxville) but now live in the UK. Trust me; our local IronMan (Bolton) is hilly enough. Only 20 riders out of 1,300 finishers went under 6 hours on this course in 2019. I think the Chattanooga IM course looks pretty good but doesn't come close to the Bolton course for elevation. I'm still hoping to come back to visit and do that course some day!

[@356z]

They switch between the felt and canyon. Are they allowed to say which they like better? 😬

[@SimoneChiaretta]

One of the fastest, if not “the” fastest bike course is Tallinn

[@pal_lokomotivet2679]

I agree. I had to quit the year i was there but held 37-38 kmt with 225 watts. Its a very fast course. Going 30 kmt and sub 6 there is in reach for almost anyone

[@SimoneChiaretta]

@@pal_lokomotivet2679 my NP was 185W for 5h25min (with loo break) at 33km/h avg (and got thunderstorm and flooded streets in the last 30km)

As a 16:58:35 guy, it is always entertaining to watch these videos, but...

[@bariskancoglu4461]

Can you do a Ironman Equipment related video for all sports, covering practice and race day

[@gtn]

Sure, we can look into it 🙂

[@truth-Hurts375]

Remember this....Good Runners are Good Cyclists...Good Cyclists cant Run !.That was our slogan in the days before the internet...and I stand by it...even up to today !!

I want the WWI/WWII navel style Dazzle camouflage pattern on the Felt.

nice video... zone2 zone3... heart rate zones or power zones?

[@sbyrstall]

One of these I'll be able to get a century ride in.

Step 1: pick a flat course. Step 2: don't stop to pee

[@jaelpoldnurk7003]

👍

[@stug45]

Step 1. Pick a flat bike course. Step 2. Get aero. Step 3. Done

[@matthewlupo8851]

I also disagree with the advice to train solo. Better to train with a group that can push you.

[@pal_lokomotivet2679]

Depends. Intervalls yes but thats the only time you need to "push". Going all out getting that last juice out is a bit outdated training. I would say that being able to focus alone and maintaining the tempo is a quality thats more worth on a ironaman than any benefit you can get from group training.

[@KlemenSuligojTri]

You want to go under 6 hours and your ultimate training goal is 2x30 minutes, so 60 minutes total? Yeah ...ok. What about the other 5 hours?

[@pal_lokomotivet2679]

You dont need anything near that to go sub 6. I have around 3.5 hours a week and can easily go 5.30 with bad conditions. With good conditions i can go sub 5 with 3-4 hours a week. But you need to do training specific
