+1 for this.
Great video and results, congrats! That run course was a beast, destroyed me for sure. Was my first 70.3 having progressed through Sprint to Olympic in the past couple of years. Looking forward to the next one though!
Great performance Lewis. I had similar problems with weeing too much on the bike in a race earlier this year and found it down to drinking too much the days before the event.
Think Holkham is a more tougher than people give it credit for especially on the run.
Congrats on another great result! Happy to hear you were able to make progress on the bike! I'm by no means an expert, but I've read up a bit on hydration, and it seems that if you need to pee a lot it could be because you're running low on electrolytes and the body therefore can't hold fluid (or you'd dilute your blood/sodium balance too much). There's good content on it here on yt by nutrition triathlon and also a channel called Saturday morning. I've started supplementing with electrolyte tabs this summer - like in pretty much all the water I drink (a 500mg tab per 0,5L) and it's a noticeable difference in how often I need to pee, and it also seems to reduce the amounts of headaches I get. Best wishes
Thanks for that comment dude, really appreciate it! I have been using Precision Hydrations 1000mg electrolyte tabs in the bottles so I think (I’m not 100% sure!) that my electrolytes are okay, I do have a pretty weak bladder as well which doesn’t help haha, I’ll have to have another look into it all and take a look at Nutrition Triathlon on TH-cam as you mention and figure it out. Thanks again!
Nice video, I'm learning a lot from this kind of stuff. I'm a newbie in triathlon and this helps a lot. Thank you and Congrats !
Thanks so much! Really nice to hear some people can learn from my mistakes haha, good luck in your triathlon journey! 💪🏼
Brilliant performance Lewis, it sounds like you're learning so much already, can't wait to see how you're going in your next few races! Good to hear you got a decent breakfast down you :D
Thanks so much dude, really appreciate it! 👊🏼 I think there’s still some learning to be done but definitely going in the right direction, and a good breakfast definitely does help haha!
