After completing 3 HIM's, I've signed up for Ironman Sweden 2015. Got 7 months to train, however starting to panic. I've read race reports saying it's very windy in parts of the bike, and I have to complete it within 16 hours.
They say that to get a rough estimate of IM time, you should get your HIM PB x 2 and add 2 hours. Unfortunately this would make me pass the cut off. I'm worried now but know I shouldn't take these things too seriously. My HIM's were tough conditions and weren't near best times for me.
Would be keen to hear others and their first IM experiences and how they dealt with the butterflies :-)
