Completed my first tri "season" this year,
3 sprints
2 olympics
1 HIM this past Sunday
Was originally looking at doing IMTX next year but don't have the leeway in my schedule to get the training in so I'm now looking at The Woodlands marathon next March instead.
I want to maintain my swim and bike fitness with one workout a week of each and run no more than 3 times a week for a total of 5 days a week of working out. The goal of the marathon would be to finish.
My schedule would go something like this, would like some feedback and/or some pointers towards tightening up the plan:
Monday: Short run / tempo run generally 3-5 miles
Tuesday: bike
Wednesday: 'sorta long' run 3 miles building up to 10 miles the week of the 20-miler
Thursday: swim
Friday/Saturday: long runs slowly building to 20 miles
Thoughts? Thanks for any feedback!
