Starting IRONMAN-Specific Training Around a Full Time Job | Ep 607
This week Coach Rob tackles a question from a first-time IRONMAN athlete juggling training with a full-time job:
"how do you structure your training year, and how many weeks out should IRONMAN-specific training actually start?"
Rob breaks down the winter base-building phase vs. the ~20-week specific build, how to shift focus from indoor FTP work to outdoor endurance riding as the days lengthen, and how to set a realistic finish-time goal from your half-IRONMAN pace.
Then it's onto three brilliant IRONMAN Leeds success stories — including a negative-split marathon PB, a FTP transformation, and a top-25% finish off just eight weeks of training. Plus a preview of IRONMAN Wales and the 70.3 World Championships in Nice.

Plus: Rob is having three and a half years' worth of hair cut off in mid-September and donating it to be made into a wig for a child with cancer. It costs around £700 to make the wig and he'd be so grateful for anybody that can share any amount - big or small - via this donation link
