Run90min+AdvancedSession Overview This session rehearses your full race-day fuelling plan under real fatigue — a long race-effort bike block straight into a race-pace run — so you find out which products and intake rates your gut can handle before race day, not during it. Best used by athletes in the final 6–8 weeks of Ironman-distance…
What to Look For Full Ironman and multi-day events can genuinely outlast a GPS watch’s battery, especially once travel, race-week tracking and pre-race nerves have already chewed through some of the charge before you even start. Support crews and family tracking your progress on a race-day app face the same problem with their phones. A…
What to Look For Electrolyte tablets replace the sodium (and, in smaller amounts, potassium and magnesium) you lose in sweat during long training sessions and races. Get the dose wrong and you’re looking at cramping, bloating or, in the worst case on a hot long-course day, hyponatremia. The right tablet for you depends on how…
BikeRun90min+AdvancedSession Overview A swim-bike-run-bike-run “double brick” that rehearses the specific fatigue pattern of racing on tired legs twice over, building the neuromuscular adaptation to run off the bike more effectively than a standard single brick session. What You’ll Need Access to a pool or safe open water for the swim segment (or substitute a 15-minute…
Run90min+IntermediateSession Overview A structured practice run to rehearse a fixed run-walk pattern for the Ironman marathon — deliberately building walk breaks into your pacing strategy from the start, rather than being forced into unplanned walking when things fall apart late in the run. What You’ll Need A GPS watch with an interval/lap alert function, set…
What to Look For After hours in cycling shoes and race trainers, feet swell, arches ache and the last thing they need is another structured shoe. A dedicated pair of recovery sandals — soft, cushioned, easy to slip on with wet or swollen feet — is a small purchase that makes the walk from the…
Suunto is preparing a successor to its long-running Core ABC (altimeter, barometer, compass) watch, revealed so far only through regulatory filings rather than an official announcement. Here’s everything confirmed, and what’s still speculation. Want a Full GPS Multisport Watch Today? The Core 2 looks likely to be a simpler instrument than a training-focused GPS watch…
What to Look For The Polar Street X, launched 25 March 2026, is Polar’s attempt at an affordable, everyday sports watch — sitting below the Vantage and Grit X ranges on price while keeping Polar’s core training and recovery metrics. If you want Polar’s Precision Prime heart rate tracking and recovery insight without the flagship…
BikeRunSwim90min+AdvancedSession Overview A short, sharp brick session that simulates the super-sprint format used in World Triathlon mixed relay racing: repeated efforts of 300m swim, 8km bike and 2km run, raced back-to-back with minimal recovery. It’s a brutal test of your ability to switch disciplines and hold pace when your legs are still loaded from the…
A watch built to talk to your bike computer The Wahoo ELEMNT RIVAL is a multisport GPS watch designed specifically to complement Wahoo’s ELEMNT bike computers rather than replace them. If you already race with an ELEMNT BOLT, ROAM or ACE mounted on your bike, the RIVAL’s standout trick is handling the swim and run…
