4 MYTHS ABOUT IRONMAN® TRAINING
Triathlon
#1
SUPER- HUMAN
YOU HAVE TO BE SUPER HUMAN
Nope. You don't. You can be a regular ole' Joe with a dream and a work ethic. Don't believe me? Go to an Ironman race nearby and just see all the types of people racing.

#2
SWIM EXPERIENCE
YOU NEED SWIM EXPERIENCE
Again, nope. Sure, many triathletes have a swimming background, but many also don't. Commit to the process of Ironman training, and the rest will take care of itself.

#3
RICH
YOU NEED TO BE RICH
Triathlon is expensive. No argument there. But you can shop used gear, borrow a bike, and get your way to an Ironman finish like for way less money than your fellow racers.

IT'S HARD
