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.

Well I'm here on Long island and I don't have my bike. It was suppose to arrive today via helicopter but that just didn't happen. I'm going to have to buy a good bike case so that I can ship my bike everyplace I travel. I can't let traveling for work get in the way of my ironman dream.

I ran to crossfit again today, 2.3 miles in :17:02. The workout was 5 rounds for time of: 50 double unders, 35 knees to elbow and 20 yrd walk with overhead barbell. I used 115 lbs for the overhead barbell with a time of 25:30. It was good workout. I then ran back to the hotel (2.3 miles) in :16:28. I'm not sure why the return was faster.

I have a place to swim here so I'll be getting to that later this week. I'm also going to find a spin class to keep the bike legs moving.

Have a good day!
