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!

Swim

Drill and some work at 65strokes a minute with the bleeper under the hat.

Flat out with the house and working on an essay - i've been sitting at the computer for the last 4 days solid - interesting work but am over it now.

Turbo

The usual session - 250W x 5min x 4
Taking the cadence higher 95rpm

The higher cadence should put more stress on on the cardiovascular system and less on the body. (Thats the idea anyway)
