#806 – What's Harder: A Marathon or An Ironman?
Manage episode 445440251 series 1313446
Today, we tackle a thought provoking question. What’s harder, an Ironman or a stand alone marathon? Within this question are a lot of interesting thoughts about becoming a stronger endurance athlete. We compare the body blow mentality of doing and Ironman vs. the more intense effort it takes to do a marathon. We ask if most people really “race” an Ironman or survive? We look at the pain and pounding of a marathon. Levels of soreness vs. overall fatigue. Are we talking about the training input it takes to do either? Are we talking about just getting it done or racing? Are they two completely different sports?
Topics:
- Early morning running
- Intervals, hill repeats, and Z1-Z2
- Are most people way overtrained?
- Chasing a pace
- How much more running do we do for a marathon?
- Are you racing or surviving?
- Optimal marathon vs. Ironman pace in the run
- When does your body reject the speed?
- People to pace off of
- Crowds
- When people are shocked by their marathon pace
- 1 mile sprint vs. a 5k
- Do you need to do a marathon while training for Ironman?
- Top marathoners vs. Top Ironman athletes
- Lot’s of food for thought
- The answer doesn’t really matter
