Ironman Canada Goals

Here are my goals for Ironman Canada. I'm putting them on the blog so that everyday I'll be reminded of what I'm working toward.

Swim-1:00:00 T1-:4:00 Bike-5:30:00 T2-:4:00 Run-3:30:00

Total - 10:08:00


How to achieve world class fitness!!

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

Leg Blaster

I'll tell you that when things get in the way of my workouts, they really get in the way. Today I was planning to swim in the AM and do a crossfit workout 3 hours later. However I had my little ladies last night and their school was delayed 2 hours so I didn't swim. I did find time to get my crossfit on before I had to go to work.

Today I did Kelly! No not like that....it's a workout called Kelly and let me tell you that Kelly is a real bitch. The snow and ice is still hanging around so instead of running I decided to row 250 meters. But everything else was as prescribed (Rx'd).

Kelly - 5 rounds for time:

Run 400m (I rowed 250m)
30 box jumps, 24 inches (I did 25")
30 wall balls, 20 lb ball

My time was 25:40 and my goal was 25:00 flat. I was close but need to work a little harder. Now that I'm 10 hours post workout my legs are smoked. I love that feeling!! Tomorrow I'm going to swim in the AM and do a crossfit workout 3 hours later. Hopefully nothing will interfer with my training.

Life is good!!
