Met with my coach this afternoon to go over my training plan for Lanzarote Ironman. Ignoring Sundays duathlon the "base level" training starts on Monday. It's 9.5 hours per week of swim, bike, run, gym & core work! This is just to get my body used to "regular" exercise before the really hard stuff!
Having been through Ironman training before I know that this is only going to increase. What is great is having this plan to focus on. It will determine my life / work pattern for the next 7 months and there will be a lot of changes going on in my body during that time especially with the gym and core work. I'm not going to put on a lot of muscle as that would mean I have to carry it around but I will certainly "shape up"!
However tonight I am going to forget my training regime and enjoy quite a few beers at the Piping Hot Charity Ball as this will be a rarity in the coming months. Remember my motto that "a goal without a plan is just a wish" so now I have my plan I just need to execute it and enjoy the journey.
