How you tackle a rolling start may have an ipact on your race, so go into it with the best strategy that works for you.

Coach Rob shares his ideas around Rolling Start strategy.

To race an IRONMAN Triathlon with a rolling start, here are some tips:
-Know your estimated swim time: When registering for the race, provide an accurate estimate of your swim time. This will help the race organizers assign you to an appropriate start wave, ensuring you begin with athletes of similar abilities.
-Position yourself correctly: During the rolling start, line up with athletes who have a similar swim pace to yours. This will help you find a comfortable rhythm without having to constantly pass or be passed by others.
-Pace yourself: Since you won't have the advantage of drafting off other swimmers or being pulled along by a fast pack, it's important to swim at a pace that suits your ability. Avoid going out too hard and exhausting yourself early in the race.
-Focus on your own race: With the rolling start, it's easy to get caught up in comparing yourself to other athletes. Instead, concentrate on your own performance and execute your race plan. Remember that the overall result will be determined by the combination of swimming, biking, and running, so don't put too much emphasis on the swim portion alone.
-Use sighting techniques: During the swim, it's crucial to navigate accurately to avoid swimming off course. Practice sighting techniques beforehand to ensure you are aware of slower swiers in front of you.

By following these tips, you can maximize your performance in an Ironman Triathlon with a rolling start while enjoying a fair and safe race experience.

You will learn that carbohydrates are crucial for providing energy during prolonged exercise and that ingesting exogenous carbohydrates (consumed during the race) improves performance and prevents fatigue. The recommended intake is typically between 30 and 60 grams per hour, but recent research suggests that higher amounts, up to 90 grams per hour, can be tolerated and result in better performance.

The podcast goes into a bit more detail than the article Anna wrote the for Foot Traffic Membership Site, which can be found through the link below.

Please share your own ideas and fueling strategies, we'd love to find out what does (and what doesn't of course) work for you.

]]> Foot Traffic Coaches Anna Lorimer and Rob Dallimore discuss the importance of carbohydrate intake in endurance sports, particularly in triathlons and Ironman races. You will learn that carbohydrates are crucial for providing energy during prolonged exercise and that ingesting exogenous carbohydrates (consumed during the race) improves performance and prevents fatigue. The recommended intake is typically between 30 and 60 grams per hour, but recent research suggests that higher amounts, up to 90 grams per hour, can be tolerated and result in better performance.

The podcast goes into a bit more detail than the article Anna wrote the for Foot Traffic Membership Site, which can be found through the link below.

Please share your own ideas and fueling strategies, we'd love to find out what does (and what doesn't of course) work for you.

Anna references a couple of studies and useful websites, and they are listed below.
