I tend to get very nervous before the first races of the year. It takes you a bit of time to get into the season.
Alistair BrownleeThe main thing with triathlon is you've got to be as fit as you can. I train all year round.
Alistair BrownleeEvery athlete has training they enjoy and training that they do because they have to and they don't enjoy so much. Do the training you love, remind yourself why you do it and hopefully it'll all come good for you.
Alistair BrownleeI did my first triathlon when I was 11-years-old and it was just another new sport to try. I got better at it and decided to take it a bit more seriously.
Alistair BrownleeI train for about 25 to 30 hours a week so I need to eat a lot. You just need to have a generally healthy diet. You need to be eating foods with lots of vitamins and minerals. You need to make sure you eat properly in order to give yourself the best chance of performing and recovering from training and competing.
