Calendar - Athlete-Supported Training
Sunday, September 20 – Soma and Ironman Arizona ride
Meet at Tempe Town Lake at 6 a.m. Time Trial start order. Head out to Beeline Hwy to Fountain Hills turn around. Soma athletes will do one loop while Ironman athletes will do 2 or 2 1/2 loops. Brick run immediately after around Tempe Town Lake. We normally have 8-10 volunteers and 3 water stations equipped with plenty of food and drinks. This is a great practice for those trying to dial in nutrition, hydration, heart rate specific training and brick practice on the race course. More details to follow as we approach September 20th
Sunday, October 18 – Ironman Arizona ride
Focus on Ironman preparation. Again, the same as above but all Ironman athletes will complete the entire 112+ mile ride, anyone else can ride 1 loop or two loops. Brick run after. We typically get 50 athletes who participate. Focus is on establishing speed, heart rate and caloric needs for an Ironman distance event. Many Soma athletes come and do one loop and support all the IMAZ athletes after. Save the dates.
