IronReady™ Triathlon Analyzer
Assess your swim, bike, and run readiness for any triathlon distance — from sprint to full Ironman. Get a personalized race readiness score, training gap analysis, and AI-powered coaching recommendations.
Why Triathlon Readiness Assessment Matters
Completing an Ironman or any triathlon demands balanced preparation across three disciplines, plus transitions, nutrition, and recovery. Understanding your readiness gaps — before race day — is the single most important thing you can do to finish strong and stay healthy.
Swim Readiness
Open water swimming demands specific skills beyond pool fitness. Your pace, endurance, and open water experience determine whether the swim sets you up for a strong race or leaves you depleted before T1.
Bike Fitness & Power
The bike leg is where races are won or lost. Your FTP-to-weight ratio, longest ride, and nutrition-on-bike strategy directly predict whether you'll run strong or limp to the finish.
Run Off the Bike
Running on fresh legs and running after 56–112 miles of cycling are completely different. Brick workout experience and pacing discipline determine your marathon or half-marathon performance.
Training Load Balance
Overtraining is the leading cause of DNS (Did Not Start) on race morning. The acute-to-chronic workload ratio reveals whether your training is building fitness or breaking you down.
Recovery & Health
Sleep quality, HRV trends, and key biomarkers like ferritin and vitamin D directly impact endurance performance. Athletes who optimize recovery outperform those who only train harder.
Race-Day Nutrition
An unpracticed nutrition plan is the most common reason athletes DNF (Did Not Finish). Knowing your caloric needs, hydration rate, and GI tolerance before race day is non-negotiable.
Want Lab Data to Enhance Your Analysis?
Optional blood biomarkers like ferritin, vitamin D, hemoglobin, and hs-CRP provide deeper insight into your physiological readiness. Order your own labs — no doctor's visit needed in most states.
Note: Direct-to-consumer lab ordering is not available in NY, NJ, RI, or HI due to state regulations.

Scoring Domains & Weights
The 0-100 composite score is weighted across six domains, with weights adjusted by target race distance:
- Swim Readiness (15-20%): Pace benchmarking, endurance volume, open water skills, CSS analysis
- Bike Readiness (25-30%): FTP/weight ratio, longest ride vs. race distance, weekly volume, nutrition strategy
- Run Readiness (25%): Pace sustainability, volume adequacy, off-the-bike experience, injury status
- Training Volume & Progression (10%): Multi-sport balance, weekly hours, periodization phase
- Recovery & Health (10%): Sleep, HRV, fatigue markers, biomarker optimization
- Race-Specific Preparation (10%): Brick frequency, race simulation, transition practice, nutrition rehearsal
