I was going to have to bail my 1st full IM but some things have changed and it looks like I will be able to make it.   If you bored, can you look at my logs and see what I need to change training wise.  I realize my swim time is short so I plan on increasing this. And I plan on increasing my long ride.  Thanks.

After looking at you logs this plan might come close where you are at.

Well it's hard to tell you what to change exactly. I mean... things SHOULD be changing because your volume should be ramping up.

I think my only input would be that you ride more, and get in some longer rides. At this point, especially 3 months out, you should be up in the 75-100 mile range on the bike for your long rides.

Very interesting plan from experienced & respected coach (Gale Bernhardt).  Thanks for the link. 

Any idea of success rate for this plan?
