Everything we do in training, all the preparation and work we put in is so that we can get to race day and perform well.

We want to stand on the startline on the beach, ready to hit the water knowing we are in the best shape possible.

We speak a lot on this podcast about race execution, how to attack the race, how to have a race plan...

But your race doesn’t start when you’re on the beach. It starts the moment you wake up, in fact it actually starts the night before, the whole week before or even the last two weeks leading into it.

Have you ticked every box in the last couple of weeks to make sure that you are feeling confident on the start line.

That’s what we’re going to discuss today.

Keys to the episode:
Breaking down the Ironman world record
How we still underutilize swim drills
Gerard’s horror watching warm ups at the latest triathlon sprint race
When does race preparation really start?
Not getting distracted by people around you
The magic of the checklist
How can I arrive at the start line with everything ticked off?
What needs to happen 2 weeks out from your race?
What needs to happen in the last week leading up to the race?
What do you need to do the day before? And the night before?
What should your morning look like?
Why you should already have the answers to this exam
How hard can you train leading up to the race?
