So in this show we pick Ben’s brain on:

• How you can prepare for a major endurance event with 4-6 weeks notice
• What he’ll do last minute to prep for an Ironman Hawaii (he only had two weeks notice)
• His detailed nutrition plan for Kona this year including a honey/chia/coconut water hydration concoction he’ll use
• Expectations for the race
• and more!
