Help + Advice!
in General Chat
After many years playing sports like football and rugby, running at distance and generally anything sporty, I have just about finished my first season in Triathlon.
I have really enjoyed it, but would obviously like to improve, so I'm seeking some tips!
This season I have concentrated upon Sprints and generally complete a 400m / 20km / 5km Sprint in around 1hr 5 mins. With my weakest area probably being the Swim, which is now 7 mins 50 for the 400.
I would love to attempt something longer Olympic, but have a real desire to do something like a 1/2 or full Ironman. I think with my general base level of fitness I might stand a chance at the 'long stuff'.
So how do I improve my Sprint times and also prepare for the long stuff? Does it just come naturally the more I do the quicker I get?
I'm certainly not thin, but I'm powerful, could losing a few pounds help?
Any advice would be greatly received! Anybody been in the same situ!
Cheers
