The Complete Guide to Your First 70.3 Triathlon

$14.99

The Complete Guide to Your First 70.3 Triathlon is your all-in-one resource to train smart, race strong, and cross your first Ironman finish line with confidence.

Written by journalist and triathlete Brittany Vermeer (that’s me!) a 12x 70.3 finisher, 2x Ironman finisher, and 4x 70.3 World Championship qualifier. This 100+ page e-book takes the guesswork out of training and race prep and gives you a roadmap to follow.

This is everything I wished I knew before I did my first 70.3 triathlon, and I want to share it with you. :)

Here’s what’s inside:

  • How training changes from short-course triathlon to long-distance triathlon

  • Important skills you will need to learn, with my favorite drills to improve

  • Recommended gear and training essentials

  • How to conquer open water swimming with confidence

  • Smart pacing and fueling strategies for race day

  • Mental tools to stay calm and confident under pressure

  • Step-by-step guidance for navigating race week, transitions, aid stations, and race rules

  • Lessons learned from real-world experience— what works, what doesn’t, and what no one tells you before race day

Whether you’re training for your first half-ironman, or just haven’t been able to race to your potential at this distance, this book is for you.
