Hello

Registering for my new diary suggests I have 301 days until my first Ironman. I have competed comfortably at Olympic distance this year

How quickly should I be looking to build up each discipline? Should I be focussing on technique or endurance this early on?

when IS your first IM? Which one? Your post suggests that you have 301 days until you would be ready to do one.... I only ask because most IM races will need to be registered for as much as a year out.

I agree though....this far out..BASE TRAINING, GYM, YOGA, DIET. Start playing with bike fit, race day nutrition, the right shoes, etc..
