Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official ThreadI was planning on racing a HIM in the beginning of June. But I am really considering switching gears and doing CDA. I did IMFL and I need redemption. I had a stress reaction in my femur that limited my running 8 weeks before the race. Needless to say I had a hard time on the run. I was on place to break 11 hrs but ended up at 12:20 (walked most of the marathon ). I think I am course with training time...my febuary totals are: Swim-6.5 hrs, bike-21.25 hrs, run-15 hrs. So convince me I should pull the trigger? My only reservation is my leg. I have been pushing it hard the last month (lots of intervals ) so my leg is starting to act up again. So I need to dial it down a bit. But I think the change to Z2 effort will be a good thing for me. |
