Taking On Your First Long Distance Triathlon

Nehmen Sie an Ihrem ersten Langstrecken-Triathlon teil

Toby Simmons , ZONE3-Botschafter, berichtet von seinen Erfahrungen bei seinem ersten Langdistanz-Triathlon – Challenge Roth.

Toby Simmons zeigt seine Challenge Roth-Medaille

„Ich bin im November 2023 meine erste Bahn als Erwachsener geschwommen und 7 Monate später habe ich einen Langdistanz-Triathlon absolviert!“

Einstieg in den Triathlon

In sportlicher Hinsicht war meine Vergangenheit unglaublich abwechslungsreich. Mit Anfang 20 habe ich mich an Freestyle-Ski-Wettkämpfen versucht, als Teenager war ich Rugbyspieler und seitdem bin ich Fahrradführer, Trailrunner und begeisterter Fitnessstudiogänger und Powerlifter.


Mein Ziel beim Triathlon bestand darin, aus dem Schema auszubrechen, indem ich hohe Gewichte und Muskelmasse beibehielt und gleichzeitig bei Triathlon-Veranstaltungen tolle Zeiten erzielte.


Ich bin unglaublich stolz, dass mir das sowohl beim Ironman 70.3 Venice Jesolo als auch jetzt beim Challenge Roth gelungen ist.


Zum Kontext: Ich bin im November 2023 meine erste Bahn als Erwachsener geschwommen . Meine ersten 70.3 habe ich Anfang Mai in 5 Stunden 18 Minuten absolviert. Und jetzt auch noch eine volle Distanz hinter mir zu haben, fühlt sich surreal an.


Meine Ziele für die Zukunft sind, die 5-Stunden-70,3-Marke zu durchbrechen und in den nächsten 12 Monaten in einem Gesamttraining unter 11 zu bleiben, während ich meinen Körper und meine Hebeleistungen beibehalte, die nicht dem Durchschnitt in diesem Sport entsprechen. Ich werde weiterhin beweisen, dass man ein sehr geschäftiges, aber ausgeglichenes Leben führen und trotzdem bei fantastischen Events wie Roth auf der ganzen Welt gute Leistungen erbringen kann.

Rennrückblick - Langdistanz-Triathlon bei der Challenge Roth 2024

Meine Gefühle beim Einzug nach Roth

Ich war sehr nervös und besorgt, da ich meine erste Ironman-Distanz 6 Monate früher als ursprünglich geplant und nur 7 Monate, nachdem ich mit dem Triathlontraining begonnen hatte, in Angriff nahm. Wie erwartet war die Nervosität jedoch wie weggeblasen, als ich im Wasser war, und ich war voll in der Zone und bereit für das Rennen.

 

Das Schwimmen

Schwimmen ist für mich immer noch ein so fremder Sport. Ich kann es, aber ich muss noch unglaublich viel daran arbeiten, es zu verbessern. Mein Ziel war, es bequem durchzustehen und warm zu bleiben, um für eine schnelle Radetappe bereit zu sein. Ich hatte ein paar kleinere Rangeleien, wie es im Wasser immer der Fall ist, aber ich kam gut damit klar. Ich fühlte mich beim Schwimmen überhaupt nicht zu müde und konzentrierte mich auf mein Rennen und nicht auf die um mich herum.

 

Das Bike

Meine stärkste Disziplin, aber leider die Disziplin, in der ein mechanischer Defekt mein Rennen fast komplett ruiniert hätte. Meine eigene Schuld, aber ich hatte die Schrauben an meinem Umwerfer zu stark angezogen, sodass er sich unter Last nicht ausreichend bewegen ließ, um zwischen den vorderen Ringen zu wechseln. Also wechselte ich während der gesamten Fahrt mit meinem Finger zwischen dem großen und dem kleinen Ring. Dann, nach etwa 140 km, riss ich beim Versuch, den Schalthebel zu betätigen, den gesamten Umwerfer vom Rahmen. Zum Glück hatte ich Ersatzschrauben und Kabelbinder in meiner Ersatzflasche und schaffte gerade noch die letzten 40 km (einschließlich der größten Anstiege) mit dem großen Ring, um das Rad nach Hause zu bringen. Wirklich schade, denn ich denke, angesichts meiner Startstatistiken hätte ich es unter 11 schaffen können, wenn ich diese Probleme nicht gehabt hätte.

 

Der Lauf

Ich habe mein Rennen im Lauf gerettet, indem ich mich die ganze Zeit an meinen Ernährungs- und Tempoplan gehalten habe. Meine einzige Regel war: nicht gehen, richtiges Essen essen und viel trinken. Das hat wunderbar funktioniert und ich habe es geschafft, in 3:55 ins Ziel zu kommen, und mein Ziel war immer, unter 4 zu bleiben. Ich hatte keine Probleme mit Krämpfen, nur sehr leichte Magenprobleme und fühlte mich die ganze Zeit über stark. Nach etwa 30 km ging es in die „Gräben“ und ab da ging es nur noch um Gedankenspiele. Es gab kein Gefühl wie die letzten 3 km, als ich durch die Stadt Roth kam und dann den grünen Teppich betrat. Ich wurde unglaublich emotional. Als ich über den Lautsprecher „Aus Großbritannien, Toby Simmons“ hörte, war ich sofort auf dem richtigen Weg und es ist schwer zu erklären, wie gut es sich anfühlte, trotz meiner mechanischen Probleme in sehr respektablen 11 Stunden und 20 Minuten ins Stadion zu kommen.

 

Das Event

Challenge Roth ist mit nichts zu vergleichen, was ich je zuvor erlebt habe. Die Organisation, die Planung, die Zuschauer, alles drehte sich um das Erlebnis der Athleten und sie hätten wirklich nichts tun können, um es besser zu machen. Wirklich unglaublich. Ich hatte unglaubliches Glück, als Teil der ZONE3-Crew dort zu sein, und es war fantastisch, alle zu treffen und es am Sonntag zu schaffen.

Tipps für Ihre erste Langstrecke

Die Do's

  • Informieren Sie sich über Ihren Ernährungsplan, üben Sie ihn und halten Sie sich während des gesamten Rennens daran. Lassen Sie sich nicht dazu verleiten, davon abzuweichen.

  • Verbringen Sie 80–90 % Ihres vorbereitenden Trainingsblocks in Zone 2. Hier bekommen Sie beim Langstreckentraining das meiste für Ihr Geld.

  • Bringen Sie Unterstützung zu Ihrem Rennen mit, es macht einen großen Unterschied, während des Rennens Leute zu sehen, die Sie kennen.

  • Üben Sie das Schwimmen in Ihrem Neoprenanzug im offenen Wasser. Es ist ganz anders als im Schwimmbad und Sie wollen am Wettkampftag nicht in Panik geraten.

  • Stellen Sie sicher, dass Ihre Ausrüstung in Ihren Wechseltaschen bereit liegt, packen Sie zusätzliche Energie ein, falls etwas während des Transports beschädigt wird oder reißt, und lassen Sie die Schnürsenkel locker (oder besorgen Sie sich elastische Schnürsenkel ), damit Sie Ihre Füße beim Laufen leicht hineinstecken können.

  • Entspannen Sie sich während der Vorbereitung, denn Sie können sich schnell aufregen, wenn Sie sich auf das konzentrieren, was Sie gleich tun werden. Atmen Sie tief durch und konzentrieren Sie sich dann auf jeden Tritt, jedes Pedal und jeden Schritt, der kommt.

  • Geben Sie sich beim Schwimmen genügend Freiraum. Ein abschweifender Arm oder Fuß kann Ihr Rennen wirklich beeinflussen. Üben Sie also, Ihren Kurs zu erkennen und anzupassen, um die besten Chancen zu haben, mit dem Tempo Schritt zu halten und im Wasser entspannt zu bleiben.


Die Don'ts

  • Wenn Sie anfangen, ein wenig zu schlapp zu machen, neigen Sie nicht dazu, zu viel zu tanken. Die Vorteile von Kraftstoff treten erst mit Verzögerung ein. Trinken Sie also kein Wasser/Elektrolyte in großen Mengen und essen Sie nicht zu viel in der verzweifelten Hoffnung, dass es Ihnen besser geht. Trinken Sie kleine Mengen und oft und warten Sie, bis der Kraftstoff seine Wirkung entfaltet.

  • Geben Sie beim Laufen Vollgas, wenn Sie vom Rad steigen. Üben Sie Brick Runs und konzentrieren Sie sich darauf, Ihr Zieltempo beizubehalten, wenn Sie vom Rad steigen. Sie werden sich unglaublich schnell fühlen, aber das lässt schnell nach, wenn Sie zu schnell loslegen.

  • Seien Sie frustriert, wenn die Zeiten nicht Ihren Wünschen entsprechen. Das allein ist schon ein gewaltiges Unterfangen, ganz zu schweigen davon, sich selbst zeitliche Beschränkungen zu setzen. Genießen und begrüßen Sie die Erfahrung, geben Sie Ihr Bestes und konzentrieren Sie sich darauf, diese Ziellinie zu überqueren.

  • Vernachlässigen Sie das Krafttraining im Aufbau. Ich habe mich kein einziges Mal verletzt und das führe ich zum großen Teil auf die Menge an Krafttraining zurück, die ich in meinen Triathlonplan einbaue.


Mentale Vorbereitung

  • Vergiss alle anderen, das ist dein Rennen. Du gegen dich selbst und du bist der Einzige, der sich selbst das Leben schwer macht. Denk daran, dass das Erreichen der Ziellinie an sich schon eine enorme Leistung ist. Vergiss die Zeitziele für dein erstes Rennen und nimm diese unglaubliche Erfahrung als das an, was sie ist. Wenn du das Gefühl hast, dass du beim Laufen noch ein bisschen mehr geben kannst, dann gib alles und gib alles.

  • Verbringen Sie die Zeit vor dem Aufstehen mit Familie und Freunden, denn diese Zeit wird Sie wunderbar von der anstehenden Aufgabe ablenken.

Herausforderungen meistern

  • Bereiten Sie sich auf das Schlimmste vor, fahren Sie Ihr Bestes, bis etwas passiert. Mein vorderer Umwerfer funktionierte während der gesamten 180 km in Roth nicht und ich musste ihn während des Rennens manuell mit dem Finger bewegen. Das führte schließlich dazu, dass ich bei Kilometer 140 das ganze Teil abriss. War ich frustriert? Ja, aber ich holte tief Luft und erkannte, dass ich mich nur selbst aus der Sache befreien konnte. Wir reparieren es so gut wir können und machen weiter.

  • Geben Sie dem Treibstoff Zeit, zu wirken, und beeilen Sie sich nicht und füttern Sie nicht in Panik.

  • Haben Sie keine Angst, beim Schwimmen eine Sekunde lang Wasser zu treten.

What. A. Day. 💥 Last Thursday Zone3’s Lake Roadshow Hero event popped up at Swim Six Hills. The day had it all: sunshine, swim tips, wetsuit testing, free swims, refreshing drinks and seriously good vibes. Massive shoutout to Pro Triathlete & @nebulatri.team Coach @rebecca.anderbury who came down to share her swim wisdom. She had a great crowd gathered lakeside, and for good reason, her knowledge and tips were gold. Everyone had the chance to try on a range of Zone3 wetsuits in different styles and sizes, then jump straight in for a free swim at the beautiful open water swim venue. No pressure, just pure open water joy. What really made it special? The mix of people. Triathletes chasing race goals testing upgrades in suits. First-timers just dipping a toe in. Casual open water swimmers wanting a suit to see them through the winter. All in it together. Missed out on trying a wetsuit? Swim Six Hills has the full size curve of ZONE3 Advance wetsuits all season long, or check out where we’ll be at the next stop of the roadshow.

There’s a lot of kit to think about for a triathlon. ✅ The perfect fitting wetsuit ✅ Doubling up on swim caps for warmth and to hold goggles in place ✅ Goggles suitable for the light conditions (& that won’t fog up!) ✅ Anti chafe balm - does what it says on the tin ✅ Sunglasses to protect your eyes on the bike and run ✅ Stretchy laces to save time in transition. These are just a *few* of the things you need to pack for race day. But don’t panic. We’ve got the FULL kit list, so you can tick it off item by item. Comment ‘packing list’ and we’ll DM it to you 👊

Zips go on the back, people! For newbies putting on their first ever triathlon or swim specific wetsuit, we get it, it can be confusing to know which way around the suit should go. Surf wetsuits can have zips on the front or back, swimrun wetsuits are often on the front, and shorties vary too. But FYI all triathlon wetsuits zip up at the back. We’ve been popping up at lots of different events and lakes around the UK the last few months, helping people into wetsuits who haven’t worn one before. And we have seen a lot of people trying to put them on backwards. So if you are a newbie or know a newbie, this is for you 👊 📍 The Quays, Mytchett @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching

We’ve seen so many people at events over the last few weeks wearing their swim goggles on their head waaaay before they’re due to swim. Only put your goggles on as you walk down to the water and are about to get in, this stops the heat from your head causing them to fog up! We also recommend splashing your face and dunking your goggles in the water before you start swimming - to eliminate the temperature difference on each side of the lens. And DON’T TOUCH the inside of the lens with your fingers, you’ll wear off the anti-fog coating. 📍 The Quays, @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching, Mytchett Lake #tipsfornewbies #triathlon #openwaterswim

This weekend, the Zone3 team also volunteered at the incredible 24-Hour Swim Relay at Shepperton @levelwateruk 🏊‍♀️ We're proud to support Level Water, a charity that gives children with disabilities the opportunity to learn to swim, offering 1-to-1 lessons that empower kids with confidence, movement, and freedom in the water. The 24 hour event brought swimmers together for a non-stop relay challenge, raising vital funds to provide these lessons across the UK. To everyone swimming, supporting, and staying awake through the night: thank you for making a difference. This is what sport is all about.

Blenheim Palace Triathlon 2025 brought together athletes, ambition, and the unmistakable energy of race season. 💥 As the Official Swim Sponsor, Zone3 was proud to support the event which included the British and English Sprint Distance Championships and GB Age-Group Team Qualifier. With athletes of every level pushing their limits and our ambassadors leading from the front, it was a weekend to remember. The rain came down, but the spirit? Unshakeable. The determination? Unstoppable. The atmosphere? Electric ⚡ From first-time triathletes to GB hopefuls, every stroke, step, and smile was a reminder of why we do this. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat! And huge kudos to everyone who raced! @blenheimpalacetriathlon

They're lightweight, eco-conscious, and swimmer-approved for peace of mind. 🕶 3. Waterhaul x Zone3 Sunglasses Sustainably made from ocean plastic and engineered for active wear, these polarised shades reduce glare off the water and keep you looking sharp on swim breaks. 🫖 4.

Are you ready for the Arla Great North Swim in June? @zone3official takes you through ‘sighting’ in open water, so you swim in the right direction and don’t zig zag your way around. Practicing sighting before the event will make sure you swim in a straight line and ensures you don’t swim further than you need to on the day. If you’re swimming in the pool, why not grab a bottle and use it as a marker at the end of your lane. Try to lift your eyes or head to look at it every few strokes. If you can practice in the open water, a landmark in the distance is a good marker to swim towards too! #openwaterswimming #zone3 #zone3official #greatnorthswim2025
