    Send us a text In this episode of the Precise Multisport Podcast, hosts Aubrey Hayes and Joshua Gordon discuss the essential fitness standards and preparation strategies required to complete a 70.3 triathlon. They explore the difference between competing and completing, the importance of proper training, and the minimum experience benchmarks needed to ensure readiness for race day. The conversation emphasizes the importance of consistency in training, understanding cutoff times, and recognizing red flags that indicate a lack of preparedness. The hosts offer actionable insights and guidelines to help aspiring triathletes achieve their goals and successfully navigate the challenges of endurance racing. Takeaways 1) You don't have to be a beast to race a 70.3. 2) Respect the distance; it takes time to prepare. 3) Consistency in training is crucial for success. 4) If in doubt, simulate race conditions during training. 5) Practice transitions to avoid cramping and confusion on race day. 6) Swimming is the least impactful but requires preparation. 7) You should be able to ride the entire distance before race day. 8) Running 10 miles or more in training is vital for developing endurance. 9) Cutoff times are essential to understand for race day. 10) Training load guidelines suggest 6-8 hours a week for several months.
