If there is enough time and you feel strong enough, you can add swimming to your training program on cycling/running training days. For example, if you were cycling or running in the morning, you can swim in the evening.

If you are in good shape, you can do a double training set by combining cycling and running training. This is very useful,

as it teaches muscles to quickly adapt to the load change and switch from cycling to running without any trouble.

In a double training, you shouldn’t get yourself exhausted with a long running distance. To develop “muscle memory”, it will be enough to run from 3 to 5 km after the cycling.

The main thing is not to overdo it, not to overtrain. Rest and recovery are just as important as training. This is why you must rest and keep an eye for your condition. Working out must be something you enjoy, or you’ll fizzle out before long.

Remember that you must test yourself before Ironman: run a marathon, do an Olympic-distance triathlon and beat a Half Ironman.
