So I started writing just about 1 year ago. My goals for 2012 were;
1)Complete a sub 4hr 26.2
2)Complete a sub 6hr 70.3
3)sign up for a 140.6
I missed goal #1 in feb. after a pretty solid train up I got sick and was out of commission till a few days before the race. Goal #2 I crushed last month in Austin. My hope is that I learned something about training and fueling that I can keep going forward.
And #3) was met when I got a slot for imfl during the 1minute that registration was open!
This off season I am going to make a couple of changes as I gear up for cowtown.
- less swimming. Maybe even none. I will pick it back up in march.
- shorter, more intense bike sessions. With the trainer and power meter, I want to focus on pushing vo2max and threshold power. 2 sessions per week. 1 hr per session.
- more running. Add a 4th day with a mix of z1 to z3 work.
-cf 2 or 3x per week with a strength bias.
I am thinking of dropping endurance nation till after cowtown. It would save $400 and I don't think I will follow their plan anyway.
