As I learn how to train for a Half Ironman I would love to share with you my knowledge experiences and learning process. Monday January 30, 2012 is the beginning of my 26 week Half IRONMAN training. I have decided to go the rout of time tracking not distance.
Since I’ve been researching coaching, nutrition, gear, training & resources there is so much to learn and try – but I think a lot of it is subjective= trail & error. I will be posting my workouts, tips on nutrition (that’s where I struggle the most) and gear. Stay tuned or join in by setting your own goal & training for it.
