I still remember signing up for my first #ironman race. I started training and after the first run training I was thinking "OK, this was 7k. How the f*!$# am I going to run a marathon after the swim and the bike?!" The same thing happened after the first (10) swims. I couldn't imagine being able to swim almost 4 kilometers. After a few months of proper training I realized that this isn't too far away anymore. Now when I go out on my long training sessions I can run for 30+ kilometers and ride 150+ kilometers without too much thought. How you can use training as a way of boosting your confidence for the race is the topic of today's blog post in our Psychology of endurance sports series.
