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!
Very happy to finally do what some people call the "hour of power". 50min last week and 60min today. Wasn't sure whether it was on following a 12 hour day at work on the legs all day.
The heart rate was a fair bit below last weeks 50min effort - must be the rest days.
I typically gear up for an Ironman triathlon 11 weeks before - this blog follows the ups and downs of that process. Specific in depth articles on long distance triathlon can be found on my web site http://web.me.com/jkmoon/mysite/Triathlon.html
