Training Plans Online

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Yeah this isn’t the one month review I said I’d be posting, that is coming honest. However I came up with a fairly smart way to get my training plans online for those who like that sort of thing to see. Google Docs spreadsheets! I’m sure I could come up with a better route, but it seemed a reasonable way to go. So here is my basic week, recovery week and weekly structure for 2008 and 2009.

Hopefully the ironman training geeks will enjoy this post at least.

Hi Russ, Like the look of your basic training week. That’s a serious week of training, rock and roll! Enjoy your time in Oz. Looking forward to following your progress, see you in Lanzarote.

Cheers Ben,

I’m not going to do my training by half while I’m out here! If you’ve got the opportunity to train like this you have to take it. Glad to have someone else to look out for in Lanza, looks like they’ll be a lot of us out there

Russ

kevin holt: good read buddy ) iam booked in for a 10km in september but iam training just for the event ! time wise i need to work out but love to hit around 2:10-2:20 …… TIME WILL TELL
Devin: Russ, Thanks for the response! I’ll be curious to read your camp report and hear how things went! Devin
Devin: Why would you want to start the camp with a massive day (and resulting large fatigue) when your form is already low? Seems like a progressive increase in load throughout the week would be more beneficial. Yes you’d want to...
James: Russ, Thanks for the reply. I suppose 3.8TTs would be more accurate as a judge as there’d be no variation in tides, waves, wind, navigation, course length etc.
James: What sort of times would you reasonably hope to swim for 3.8km based on current CSS and your intended CSS? Are you going to be bold enough to publish a target CSS pace for you to get to in the next few months?
