RICHARD’S NORSEMAN TIPS

1

Get a good wetsuit for the cold. I use the Blueseventy Thermal, which is amazing.

2

You must be fit on the bike as there are no short cuts. I didn’t do a huge amount of hill training, which would have been beneficial. Saying that, riding long and flat will get you through it, depending also on your experience and ability.

3

Buy good equipment and kit to handle the rain and cold temperatures, as it could mean the difference between a DNF and a finish.

4

Regardless of whether you get a black t-shirt or a white t-shirt, never forget what an incredible accomplishment it is to complete this race.
