As someone who has been running for years, running has been my main endurance sport. But, lately the people I have been surrounding myself with, have been running triathlons. And just when we thought running couldn’t be anymore analytical, structured, and regimented, they made triathlons. So, in this episode, I have expert in triathlons, multiple 70.3 World Championship and Iron Man Finisher, triathlon coach, and Boston Qualifier,  Jennifer Comfort here to discuss the principles of training for a half and full iron man.Episode Outline00:00Introduction to Triathlons and Personal Journeys05:04The Challenge of Triathlons: Overcoming Initial Fears10:08The Evolution of a Triathlete: From Beginner to Coach15:01Balancing Training: Managing Time and Commitments20:00The Importance of Enjoyment in Endurance Sports24:53Training Strategies: Prioritizing the Bike and Running30:06Preparing for an Ironman: Steps and Mindset31:19Training Commitment for Triathlons34:03Balancing Life and Training36:31The Role of Support Systems41:18Common Mistakes in Triathlon Training54:30Staying Curious and Having FunAbout Jennifer Comfort Coach Jennifer Comfort began racing in 2005 and has since competed at all levels and distances of multi-sport.
