Aflac Iron Girl May 15th 2010 Sprint Triathlon training (January 4th, 2010 - May 9th, 2010 == 18 weeks).

Here's where I'll keep updates regarding the triathlon, including training info and progress.  Thoughts about the training will go in the regular weekly blog.


Going to do running on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, Cycling on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and swimming on Thursdays and Sundays.  So I'm preparing the iPod touch and after my 6p class going to go over the LVAC track and do Day 1 of Couch25K.  Here's a link to the program: http://www.c25k.com/

I have 18 weeks to train.  Here's how the training going to look:

Running:  C25K program twice (9 weeks each)
Cycling:  2K first week, +2K each consecutive week, 36K by end, triathlon is 30K.
Swimming:  2 laps first week +2 laps each consecutive week, 36 laps by end, triathlon is 32 laps.
