As race day in Lake Placid approaches, it’s time to shift gears from training mode to execution mode. In this episode, we offer practical, race-tested guidance for your final week and race day strategy at Ironman Lake Placid. From gear checks and fueling to pacing the marathon, we break down the dos and don’ts to help you arrive fresh and race smart. (Rule #1: you’re not gaining fitness this week—shed fatigue instead!)

Jim also recaps his recent endurance milestone: completing the iconic “200 on 100” ride across Vermont. What did he learn over 200+ miles and 12 hours in the saddle? Everything from nutrition (Coke > everything) to mindset shifts that apply well beyond the bike. Expect lessons in pacing, managing the low points, and why you should never carry an unsecured phone in your bento box.

We also share a quick training insight from the road and why Garmin Pay might just be the MVP of your long run.
