Welcome

I started this blog in 2010 when there were 11 weeks to go before my next Ironman triathlon. People have found it interesting (mainly my Mum!) so I continue to write.
The Ironman is a long distance triathlon; Swim 2.4miles, Cycle 112miles, Run 26.2 miles (marathon). I have competed in one every year since 2004. I hope this blog can help others see what is involved. I find the process of writing it makes me more accountable and motivates me to do the harder sessions when i'm not feeling like it!

Run

2min at 14, 15, 16, 17Km/hr on 1min recovery
2min at 18km/hr x 4 on 2min recovery
1min at 18km/hr
5min at 14km/hr

Another busy day so only time to get down the gym to the treadmill. I made this session up as I went along. I felt like trying different paces (all at 1%)
14km/hr = marathon, 15km = half marathon, 16km = 10km pace, 17km = 5km pace, 18km = 3Km pace.
I wanted to do 5 sets at 18km/hr but the left achilles became sore. My sensible head had to do a lot of persuading so I just did 1min.
A little bit of stretching/rolling afterwards.
