I'm on a journey to do a ironman 70.3 from zero fitness with less than 6 months to prepare myself. With the goal to raise awareness of the importance of training for our mental health.
Me and Sixten went up Vansbro Triathlon to race this weekend. Sixten went for a half distance and I made my triathlon debut, a sprint. Just to get a feel for racing and to try out the T1/T2 for real before my big race, the Ironman 70.3 in Jönköping the coming weekend.
