TRAINING FÜR IHR „A“-RENNEN – TRIATHLON-TIPPS

Was ist ein A-Rennen im Triathlon?

Bei den „A“-Rennen handelt es sich um die Veranstaltungen, bei denen Sie versuchen, Ihre beste Leistung zu bringen. Dies sind Ihre wichtigsten Ziele der Saison .


Anfänger und mittelmäßige Sportler planen normalerweise nur ein „A“-Rennen, während fortgeschrittenere Sportler an mehreren teilnehmen können.


Diese Ereignisse stehen im Mittelpunkt Ihres Trainings und Ihrer Vorbereitung und Sie streben danach, eine Höchstfitness zu erreichen .

Mein Name ist Norma Coker (eine der Athletinnen des ZONE3 Pro Team USA ) und ich habe mir 70.3 Cozumel zum Ziel gesetzt – mein „A“-Rennen für diese Saison.


Dieses tropische Event findet am 22. September statt und mein Ziel ist, unter die ersten drei in meiner Altersgruppe zu kommen und mich für die Ironman 70.3-Weltmeisterschaft 2025 im spanischen Marbella zu qualifizieren.


Dies ist das Rennen, bei dem mein gesamtes gezieltes Training, meine Ernährungsplanung und meine mentale Vorbereitung zusammenkommen.

Eine solide Ausbildungsgrundlage schaffen

Bauen Sie Ihre Basis auf


Eine solide aerobe Grundlage ist für den Erfolg bei jedem Ausdauerwettkampf unabdingbar, besonders wichtig ist sie jedoch bei der Vorbereitung auf ein Rennen bei Hitze und hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit.


Tropische Hitze und Feuchtigkeit können selbst die am besten vorbereiteten Athleten schnell ermüden. Deshalb habe ich mich bei meinem Training auf den Aufbau von Ausdauer und Hitzeanpassung konzentriert, um sicherzustellen, dass ich während des gesamten Rennens Höchstleistungen erbringen kann.

Um mich auf die heißen Bedingungen vorzubereiten, habe ich die Intensität und Dauer meiner Trainingseinheiten gesteigert, indem ich während der heißesten Tageszeiten trainiert habe. Das Ziel ist, meinen Körper an die Hitze anzupassen und während des gesamten Rennens stark zu bleiben.

Trainingstipps:

  •  Allmähliche Steigerung: Ich habe mein Trainingsvolumen und meine Trainingsintensität langsam gesteigert, um ein Burnout und Verletzungen zu vermeiden und meinem Körper gleichzeitig die Möglichkeit zu geben, sich anzupassen.

  • Hitzeakklimatisierung: Zur Vorbereitung auf die tropische Umgebung von Cozumel war das Training unter warmen Bedingungen unerlässlich. Die Trainingseinheiten wurden während der Zeiten mit der größten Hitze geplant.

Anpassung des Trainings an rennspezifische Anforderungen

Kennen Sie den Kurs

Wenn Sie die Strecke kennen, auf der Sie fahren, können Sie diese bei Ihrem Training berücksichtigen.

Wenn das Schwimmen beispielsweise unruhig sein wird, üben Sie das Schwimmen unter diesen Bedingungen. Sie könnten dabei über eine Änderung Ihrer Atemtechnik nachdenken – im Grunde bereiten Sie sich so gut wie möglich auf den Wettkampftag vor.

Bei der Vorbereitung auf 70.3 Cozumel ist es von entscheidender Bedeutung, den Kurs zu verstehen.


Bei meinem „A“-Rennen in Cozumel findet das Schwimmen in warmen Gewässern statt, sodass ein Neoprenanzug nicht erforderlich ist. Die Bedingungen im offenen Wasser, einschließlich Strömungen, können jedoch eine Herausforderung darstellen.

Ich habe mein Schwimmtraining so angepasst, dass ich das Schwimmen im offenen Wasser ohne Neoprenanzug üben kann. Daher weiß ich, dass ich mich am Wettkampftag sicherer fühlen werde.


Cozumel 70.3 bietet eine flache, schnelle Radstrecke, ist jedoch für starke Winde und hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit bekannt.


Der Lauf wird, wie das Radfahren, flach sein, aber Sie müssen Ihr Tempo sorgfältig wählen, um eine Überhitzung in der tropischen Sonne zu vermeiden.


Rennspezifisches Training und Ausrüstung:

Wenn Sie die Strecke kennen, müssen Sie möglicherweise auch die Ausrüstung anpassen, die Sie für den Renntag benötigen.

  • In den warmen Gewässern von Cozumel trage ich meinen ZONE3 Streamline Sleeveless Swimskin , der den Widerstand verringert und effizientes Schwimmen gewährleistet.
  • Beim Radfahren und Laufen trete ich im kurzärmligen ZONE3 Aeroforce-X II- Triathlonanzug an, der auf maximale Aerodynamik und Komfort ausgelegt ist.
  • Zum Laufen trage ich leichte Hochleistungsschuhe. Die Adidas Adios Pro 3 Laufschuhe geben mir den Halt und die Energierückgabe, die ich brauche, um während der Laufstrecke in der Hitze von Cozumel schnell und bequem zu bleiben.

Bei meinem „B“-Rennen in Taupo, wo die Bedingungen kühler sein werden, werde ich meinen ZONE3 Vanquish-X-Neoprenanzug zum Schwimmen und denselben Aeroforce-X II-Triathlonanzug zum Radfahren und Laufen verwenden.


Meine Volare Streamline-Schutzbrille wird bei beiden Rennen ebenfalls von entscheidender Bedeutung sein, um beim Schwimmen eine klare, bequeme Sicht zu gewährleisten.

Strategie für Ernährung und Flüssigkeitszufuhr

Treibstoff für den Erfolg

Ernährung und Flüssigkeitszufuhr sind entscheidende Faktoren bei einem Rennen wie dem 70.3 Cozumel, bei dem Hitze und Feuchtigkeit leicht zu Dehydrierung und Energieverlust führen können.


Ich habe Monate damit verbracht, an meiner Ernährungsstrategie zu feilen und während langer Trainingseinheiten verschiedene Gels, Elektrolytgetränke und Energiepläne zu testen, um sicherzustellen, dass ich für den Wettkampftag bereit bin.


Bei einem Rennen in großer Hitze wie Cozumel ist es entscheidend, ausreichend Flüssigkeit zu sich zu nehmen. Ich habe meinen Flüssigkeitsplan den Bedingungen angepasst und konzentriere mich darauf, während des gesamten Rennens den richtigen Elektrolythaushalt aufrechtzuerhalten, um Krämpfen und Erschöpfung vorzubeugen.

Wichtige Ernährungstipps:

  • Strategie zur Flüssigkeitszufuhr : Bei der Hitze von Cozumel werde ich regelmäßig trinken und meine Flüssigkeitszufuhr mit Precision Hydration-Produkten ergänzen , um sicherzustellen, dass ich ausreichend hydriert bleibe und verlorene Elektrolyte ersetze.

  • Testen Sie Ihre Ernährung : Während langer Trainingseinheiten habe ich meinen Ernährungsplan geübt, einschließlich der Arten von Gels und Snacks, die ich während des Rennens verwenden werde, um sicherzustellen, dass mein Magen sie bei der Hitze verträgt.
Packen für einen Triathlon. Schutzbrille, Brillenetui, Laufgürtel, Pulsmesser und Sonnenbrille liegen auf einem Tisch und sind bereit zum Packen.

Mentale Vorbereitung und Visualisierungstraining für Ihr A-Rennen

Stärken Sie Ihre Denkweise

Bei Ihrem A-Rennen ist mentale Stärke genauso wichtig wie körperliche Vorbereitung.


Ich habe an Visualisierungstechniken gearbeitet und das gesamte Rennen von Anfang bis Ende mental geprobt. Das hilft mir, ruhig, konzentriert und auf alles vorbereitet zu bleiben, was am Renntag passieren könnte.

Wenn ich mir vorstelle, wie ich in schwierigen Momenten stark bleibe, etwa in der Hitze beim Laufen oder bei starkem Wind auf dem Fahrrad, stärkt das mein Selbstvertrauen. Bis ich an der Startlinie stehe, bin ich die Strecke im Geiste schon Dutzende Male gelaufen.

Mentale Strategien:

  • Visualisierung : Ich visualisiere regelmäßig den Wettkampftag und stelle mir vor, wie ich mit wichtigen Momenten wie dem Schwimmstart, dem Kampf gegen den Wind auf dem Fahrrad und dem Beibehalten eines hohen Tempos beim Laufen umgehen werde.

  • Mantras : Während der schwierigen Abschnitte des Rennens verwende ich Mantras wie „Bleib stark“ und „Bewege dich weiter“, um die Konzentration aufrechtzuerhalten und die Müdigkeit zu überwinden.

Tapering und Vorbereitung auf die Rennwoche

Spitzenleistung

Die letzte Phase der Vorbereitung ist das Tapering! Ein heikles Gleichgewicht zwischen der Reduzierung des Trainingsvolumens und der Beibehaltung der Intensität, um sicherzustellen, dass ich ausgeruht und bereit für den Renntag bin.


Für 70.3 Cozumel ist die Auslaufzeit besonders wichtig, da ich konzentriert bleiben und gleichzeitig eine Überhitzung oder Erschöpfung aufgrund der tropischen Bedingungen vermeiden muss.

Während der Rennwoche werde ich außerdem meine Ausrüstung fertigstellen und sicherstellen, dass alles bereit ist, damit der Renntag reibungslos abläuft.

Checkliste für die Rennwoche:

  • ZONE 3 Aeroforce-X II Triathlonanzug: Mein Wettkampf-Outfit für maximale Leistung auf dem Rad und beim Laufen.

  • Sungod Vulcans-Sonnenbrille in limitierter Auflage von Pauline Ferrand-Prévot : Sie schützt mich vor der Sonne und sorgt beim Radfahren und Laufen für klare Sicht.

  • Präzisions-Hydratationsprodukte: Sorgen dafür, dass mein Elektrolythaushalt trotz der Hitze von Cozumel stimmt.

Während ich mich auf 70.3 Cozumel vorbereite, ist mein Ziel klar: Ich möchte unter die ersten drei meiner Altersgruppe kommen und mir meinen Platz für die Weltmeisterschaften 2025 in Marbella sichern.

Mit der Unterstützung meines Sponsors, dem Team ZONE3 USA , und einer umfassenden Trainings- und Ernährungsstrategie fühle ich mich bereit, die Herausforderung anzunehmen und meine beste Leistung zu erbringen.

Obwohl auch 70.3 Taupo vor der Tür steht, werde ich in Cozumel alles in die Tat umsetzen, wofür ich trainiert habe.


Bleiben Sie über mich, Norma Coker , in den sozialen Medien auf dem Laufenden , während ich meine Reise zum 70.3 Cozumel und darüber hinaus fortsetze. Bleiben Sie dran für weitere Updates, Tipps und rennspezifische Inhalte, die Ihnen bei der Vorbereitung auf Ihre eigene Triathlon-Reise helfen.

Want to swim without getting tired? It’s all about breathing and technique… 1️⃣ Stay Streamlined Keep your body flat and straight, with a slight rotation with each stroke. Engage your core and don’t look up - this will stop your legs from sinking. 2️⃣ Breathe Smoothly Stick to a steady breathing rhythm—breathe every 2-3 strokes or switch sides every 3 if that works. Control your exhale underwater, so you can inhale when you turn to breath. 3️⃣ Relax Your Strokes Don’t fight the water—stretch your arms out, glide, then pull. Keep it long and smooth to save energy. 4️⃣ Kick Efficiently Use small, gentle flutter kicks to stay balanced. A 2-beat kick (one kick per arm stroke) is great for long swims. 5️⃣ Master Your Pull Keep your elbows high for a strong catch and pull the water back with your forearms and hands. You want to feel the water’s pressure against your arm and hand for a powerful stroke. 6️⃣ Build Endurance Gradually Add interval training to your swim sessions to build endurance: swim 50-100m, rest for 15-20 seconds, and repeat. Over time, reduce rest or swim further to build endurance. #swimbikerun #triathlontraining #swimming #triathlon #triathlete #zone3official

Do your legs often sink when you’re swimming? Did you know your head position and where you’re looking can affect your whole body alignment?! The simple way of describing it: Head & eyes up = legs down Head down & eyes forward = legs up Give a go next time you’re in the pool 🏊‍♀️
