Subject: RE: Ironman Louisville : Official ThreadGlad to see someone kicked off the discussion for Ironman Louisville. This will be my first full IM. With a full time job and two little kids that keep me very, I was looking for a plan that would fit into the schedule and found one by Gale Bernhard (13 weeks to 13 hr Ironman ). My goal time is around 12 hours (just using the rule of your avg 70.3 time X 2 and add an hour ) and the plan is for people who already have a good base going into training and who are looking for a +/- 12hr finish. With some slight adjustments, this plan will work well I think. A couple friends who are both 10 hr IM finishers took a look at the plan and gave it the thumbs up. Several testimonials on the web as well. Looking forward to being back in Louisville next year. It's my hometown, but I haven't lived there in 10 years and I'm currently overseas. Racing with the friend and family support will be huge! Good luck picking a plan. |
