The IRONMAN preparation workshops are informative and interactive sessions hosted by IRONMAN’s top coaches for you to come and ask questions regarding training, equipment, race day, and everything in between. No question is too silly or basic and is a great way for you to meet fellow athletes and calm any nerves you may have for the big day.

You can get to know more about training and receive a special deal for our programs after attending the workshop.
