Retirement to Ironman in 18 months with Age-Group Triathlete Kelly Estes

Kelly Estes from Idaho Falls in the USA has been busy the last 18 months. He retired in 2022 after a 34-year career as a division director in the nuclear industry and prior to that, was in the US army for 20 years.   After giving up his desk job, Kelly knew he wanted to look after his health and be more active. He found a love for triathlon and has been working his way up to his first full distance race at Ironman California next weekend.   As an engineer by trade, Kelly loves a good spreadsheet, data, trends and like most triathletes, wants to do the best he can with his training and nutrition. He’s found the perfect combination with TriDot and the Triathlon Nutrition Academy.   So what has Kelly been working on with training and nutrition to build to his first Ironman?
