IRONMAN 70.3 Venice-Jesolo.
Your best day in Lido di Jesolo.
Jesolo starts with a sea swim off the lighthouse beach, then puts you on long, flat roads beside the Venetian lagoon before three laps on the promenade. The roads may be quick. That's no reason to make the bike harder than the run can absorb.

Your day in Lido di Jesolo
What could you race?
I’m Tom, the coach behind Sense Endurance Coaching. Tell me where you are now and I’ll show you what a strong day in Lido di Jesolo could look like.
The course behind your race
Nothing here makes you slow down.
That is the trap. The effort you choose on the flat lagoon roads decides how the three run loops feel.
The Venetian lagoon · first 45 km
Ride your target, not the road’s invitation.
Out on the flat lagoon roads, your speed can become addictive. Hold the power you planned, not the split a tailwind happens to give you.
Watch the watts, not the speed. Fuel early.
Cavallino, Cortellazzo and Eraclea · 45 to 90 km
Fuel now. Three run loops are waiting.
Use the return leg to hold effort and finish your nutrition before three run loops.
Stay aero. Finish planned nutrition.
Lighthouse promenade · first loop
Make the first loop feel easy.
Let the first loop along the avenue and promenade feel easy, not fast.
Easy first aid station. Check posture.
The final loop · to 21.1 km
Only now decide what you have left.
By the third trip along the lighthouse promenade, you'll know whether the flat bike really was economical. Raise the pace only if your stride and breathing have stayed together.
Stay tall. Choose the last move late.
What to check in race week
Check the sea state off the lighthouse beach, the wind across the lagoon roads and forecast heat on the promenade. Then set your bike watts and cooling plan against that forecast.

Your plan, in race week
Prepare for Lido di Jesolo
Build the legs.
Practise the decisions.
A finish range gives you something to work towards. The preparation is specific to this race: Training has to make steady power on flat roads feel natural and keep your running form through three loops after it.
I’m Tom. With Sense Endurance Coaching, I’ll build that preparation around your life, follow how you respond and adjust the work as you get closer to Lido di Jesolo.
