There are 32 days until me and I’m sure several other first timers line up to start Ironman Wisconsin. At this point we’ve riden the course and I’m sure I’ll see some of you swimming the course on the 18th. How do you feel with just over a month to go?
Personally, I’m….. comfortable. Or at least I’m not having an anxiety attack yet!
If you’re still looking for some reassurance (and a whole lot of insider tips), our friends at Vision Quest Coaching have you covered.
VQ is hosting the Ironman Wisconsin Expert Panel.
This night is designed to get you more comfortable for the race and also walk you through each leg of the triathlon from a bird’s eye view, then drilling down on specific areas of the race.
This panel experience is for you and, best of all, you can submit your questions beforehand during sign-up.
The panel includes Robbie Ventura
Coming off commentating at the Tour de France, Robbie will MC this great event.
Andrea Rudser-Rusin, with SportWise Nutrition, is a expert in her field and also lives and breathes triathlon. She has raced in numerous Ironman races including Ironman WI.
Marcia Cleveland, Open Water Swimming Expert. Marcia has written several books on open-water swimming to rave reviews. Not only has she coached athletes to swim the English Channel, but also done it herself.
Adam Zucco, Five-Time Hawaii Ironman Finisher and local triathlon coach.
