Nutrition or pacing - which is more important for Ironman triathlon?

For us age groupers who are not racing for a KQ but racing to finish, or a 13hr or 12hr finish time Nutrition. Nutrition can stop you in your tracks if you haven't taken in enough carbs. If you get your pacing wrong, you have left a few minutes on the table, or have had to walk a kilometer or 2. While neither is ideal, they won't stop you from finishing. ( Training with the actual fuels you are using on race day is critical. I learned several things during training: 1) I love drinking water while I am biking. 2) I can do solid food while biking. 3) I don't like the taste of liquid nutrition (Hammer, Infinit etc) 4) I need slightly more than 1 gel/half hr while running On course nutrition is great, but don't drink the Gatorade if you haven't stopped for Gatorade in the middle of your long rides. Get to know how many gels you need while you run. I will further refine those things next season when I re-start my training for another Ironman and a couple of 70.3s.

Nutrition. 2 Long Course races done and both times I've gotten it wrong. (and it bit me during the run)Despite practicing in training, I think that because AGers tend to do 1 maybe 2 a year we don't get much chance to practice race day nutrition once you've been under stress for 9+ hours

First your water, everything else you do later.
Great tips from an excellent competitor, thank you
Holy Cow. I just realized from his commentary about calories in (4:33 - 6 gel packets?) That I massively under estimated my caloric needs. 40 miles I use 1500 calories but only take in 90 or a little more. Glad I watched this. Thank you!
Excellent insights.
Nice one Dave. And congrats on the podium.
Finally, Dave. Absolutely stunning performance in Kona. He’s got a Kona 1st place in his locker.
GTN should have a big thumb up for the subtitles Thanks! It allows me to turn the volume down at home.
Cool guy!🤛😎
Consistency is king 👍😎
GTN, video on how to "draft" legally in ironman races without getting a penalty. its hard to judge 12 meters perfectly while racing

In Kona the reflectors on the Queen K are 40 feet apart (roughly 13.5m) considering a bike is roughly 1.5m long the pro athletes and referees are told to use the reflectors. There is an article somewhere on line called "Kona's Secret Rule" (I think thats right) about it.
Hi GTN. I have been watching loads of your videos. One questioin i cant find the answer to is. Do people carry gels with them on the run or do they just take them from the assist stations? Would be hard to carry all the gels needed for a marathon. If your tri suit doesnt have pockets what do you do?
11:48 -11:50 caption competition for the noise ?
My side hurts when I drink on the run at some point does that stop or am I doing something wrong?
what is the name of that carbohydrate fluid ?

shaves his chest to manage the heat? I'm pretty sure that is the opposite.
