Race Sim Timing, Causes of Race-Day GI Issues & Staying Fit While Travelling | Ep 609
This week Rob answers more listener questions, plus a couple of brilliant finisher stories.
- Sophie's racing her first 70.3 in Australia and needs to fit her race simulation weekends around travel - I explain her options for rescheduling
- Chris hit serious GI issues on the bike at IRONMAN Leeds. Rob explains why pacing (not fuelling) is often a big culprit, and how to build carb intake in training even if your longest ride only reaches 5-6 hours.
- Samantha has three weeks of travel 14 weeks out from her full-distance comeback race, and wants to hold onto fitness without turning the trip into a training camp.
- Plus two inspiring listener stories, including a 12:15 finish at IRONMAN Copenhagen after a 12-month transformation.

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
