Why Athletes Misunderstand Ironman Time Limits

Описание: Ironman cutoff times confuse a lot of athletes — and that confusion can end your race early. In this video, I clearly explain Ironman cutoff times, including the difference between course cutoffs and personal cutoff times.

You’ll learn how Ironman swim, bike, and run cutoffs really work, why many first-time athletes misunderstand them, and how to track your time during the race. I’ll also explain how pacing, transitions, and course layout affect your ability to make the cutoffs on race day.

If you’re training for your first Ironman, worried about time limits, or racing as a back-of-the-pack athlete, this video will help you feel confident and prepared.

Understanding Ironman cutoff rules before race day can make the difference between finishing strong and getting pulled from the course.
