Actress and athlete Saiyami Kher is preparing for the difficult Ironman 70.3 triathlon with a training intensity that is nothing less than amazing.

Saiyami Kher Trains Hard for Ironman 70.3 with Run, Cycle & Swim Challenge

The actress is clearly leaving no stone unturned as she has been regularly posting images of her daily training leading up to the competition. The regime started with a 10.03 km treadmill run timed at 1:10:10 (7:00/km pace), next a 40.43 km cycling session around Mumbai in 1:34:52 (averaging 25.6 km/h), then closed with a 1,500 meter pool swim completed in 37:50 (2:31 per 100m). Although Saiyami humbly admits, "Olympic size distance felt great but feeling far from ready for the 70.3," this demanding tridiscipline exercise is a good preparation for the Ironman 70.3.

Her assertion captures her relentless ambition not only to contend but also to be outstanding. Saiyami claims that, even with an already demanding schedule, she is trying to improve her pace, strength, and endurance even further. This perspective inspires millions and separates champions.

Discussing her training, Saiyami said, "Acting has both physical and psychological requirements. Shooting or traveling with training for something like the Ironman 70.3 is quite difficult. I hate doing things halfway, though. This competition tests not just the body but also the mental agility. The path of the race has become a hilly one with several uphill stretches following my registration. I am aware that my road is long. This race is considerably more difficult than the one I did last year. This is why I need to work even more. Managing training and employment is challenging. Nothing comes naturally, however.

Rising to become among the most fit and driven actresses in the nation, Saiyami inspires fitness buffs and young sportsmen all around.
