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.

Back in the 757

Hello friends! I'm sorry for not posting yesterday but it was a busy day and I didn't workout. Actually I didn't workout today either but all that is about to change. I finally closed on my new house and started moving in Monday afternoon. That was after flying from Nashville, TN in a little helicopter. I started moving in last night. Of course when all you own is a bed, dresser and chest of drawers it doesn't take long to move in. My friend Lisa and her girls came over and helped me and my girls with some moving. Then I went and spent the night with my girls.

Today I had to work in the AM, visit my friend Lisa after lunch (this was more of a want to than a have to) and then organize stuff at the new house. I need to shout out to my friend Jack for helping me move all the big stuff into the house from the garage. Thank Jack!!

Tomorrow I'm going to get back to normal. I'm going to run in the afternoon but crossfit will have to wait until Thursday morning when I'll be returning to Jeannie's Beach Crossfit to get it on. I hope she has some ass kicking meet Mrs Pukey workout just for me! I'm looking forward to seeing all my friends at Jeannie's.

I also planned out my training schedule for the next 6 months. I figure if it's on the calender then I have to do it, right? So I did a swim/bike/run schedule of pretty much 3 on, 1 off right up until the Ironman, plus I'm going to continue to do 4-5 crossfit workouts per week. I also threw in some long brick training that will be working me up to Bike 90 miles/Run 20 miles two weeks prior to the Ironman. After that I'll just taper until the start gun goes off.

It's good to be back!!

  1. Welcome Back Jeff! You'd never know you missed any Crossfit time while you were gone as you certainly don't look any worse for the wear after being sick out in NV. Congrats on the house! It's perfect for you and your chickies. As always, it's so good seeing you! :-)
