With just four weeks until our very own OHL Physio Bec lines up at the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, she's sharing what it really takes to get there.

In Part 1 she talks training around a full-time job (hint: it's not about finding more hours, it's making the ones you have count) and why she treats recovery as seriously as her swim, bike and run sessions!
