A week after my Philly marathon, I started my Ironman Lake Placid training. It will be my first full Iron distance triathlon, and I can't be more excited. I am approaching this as the most important project I ever had to complete.
The IMLP will be on Sunday, July 28. I have already mapped out my training schedule and races between now and July. I have full support from my partner. A few of my triathlon buddies will also do IMLP so I have people to talk to about my training routine all day.
Weight = 122 lbs
BMI = 20.8
Week of Nov 26 -- 3.5 hours total. Happy to be back in the pool & on a bike. Highlight was a 5-mile run with the Philly Front Runners. I was the first runner in after around 33 minutes.
Week of Dec 3 -- 9.0 hours total. 10k in the pool. Started weight lifting again after taking a few months off. Set up and started using my bike trainer for the first time in 2012.
Week of Dec 10 -- 10.4 hours total (6 hours on bike) including a Breakaway Bike Shop Ride.
Week of Dec 17 -- 9.5 hours total. Highlight was 30 miles running on rolling hills of Lancaster County.
Week of Dec 24 -- 9.3 hours total (7 hours on bike). Took 2 days off for Christmas but still met my all my workouts. Started using Rides DVD's for my bike trainer and went on two solo rides outside.
Week of Dec 31 -- 12.0 hours. 2 swim practices, 6 times a week on the bike, and 4 runs. Brick workouts have started. My best workout was a 8-mile tempo run under 1 hour.
