fabes Posted July 17, 2012 Share I had a chat to him this morning and he is looking forward to getting home after Sunday.He's done 7 in 7 weeks.Do you know him personally? How long will he break for now until the next one and surely when he is on a break he doesnt just rest either he keeps the body going right? After completing my 2 x ironmans i could not think of anything worse than going to do another one a week later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwissVan Posted July 24, 2012 Share Well at least he only has to train 1 x per week, i imagine the rest of the time he just recovers and travels of course..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted July 24, 2012 Share Surely the travel factor is way harder than the actual racing?And obviously getting all the $$$ together is the real tough aspect if you're not a trust fund baybee. I know for many people ironman is like conquering their own everest, but for a full time athlete it's just a 12 hour race every week or so with a LOT of rest.
