In six months I’ll be attempting competing in my second half IM distance race.
The first one didn’t go so well.
But things are different now. I am in a different place in my life than I was when I tried Mooseman a couple years ago. I am determined to finish this one. And in order to do so, I am determined to train appropriately, and fill my body with the nutrients it needs in order to succeed. Being that it is winter, and we are having a snow storm, may make some workouts more difficult, and I may not be able to follow the plan to a T, but, hey, you cannot predict Mother Nature.
Below is my first week of training:
Monday: Run: 6×8:00 with 2:00 walk in-between
Ride: 21 mile road ride (my body is not used to riding in mid-30 degree weather…when will it be spring?)
Wednesday: Leisure Mtn bike ride
Thursday: 10x 2:00 @7:20 with a 2:00 walk in between
Friday: Swim 40-50minutes at a comfortable pace
Saturday: Trainer 45 min
A lot can happen between now and the race, but I am starting off the New Year excited for 2014. I feel good things are in store!

You sound like you are mentally prepared. I’m sure that you will succeed. Good luck and enjoy!
