Mike Weinmann's Macro Thread
Hi Rich --
I just completed a new season survey after finishing IMCDA this weekend (race report in the works...were you there?). For context, here is what I posted to Coach P in the micro thread:
"Coach P -- just coming off a successful IMCDA (Race Report in draft form now!), but looking for the recovery protocol over the next two weeks. I'll be in California on vaca this week, so could do some ocean swimming -- even have my wetsuit along! Then back home during the week of July 4th. Signed up for an HIM in early Sept and previously have had trouble "getting back on the bike" after A races in the past. What IMCDA taught me is that the bike leg is my limiter, so want to avoid another prolonged no biking stretch. Swim went better than expected and run went about as well as I expected (except for absolute best case scenarios). Thx for your help!"
Interested in your thoughts on the next few months leading into the Toughman Half-IM in early September. Thanks!

Congrats on your race! No, I wasn't at the event.
I'll hook up your Season Plan in a day or two. Thanks!
Rich -- it's been 4+ weeks since IMTX and for a variety of reasons, I've only been able to get in two swims, two bikes, and two runs (in total) with next to nothing over the past two weeks and I won't be able to do much until this coming Monday. In my season plan, you had me starting the GF plan this week. Should I go back to the Transition Plan for a week starting on Monday, or is it safe to launch into the GF plan? As a reminder, my next A race is Princeton 70.3 in mid/late September.
thanks!
Please take the Triathlon Season RoadMap survey under the Training tab above and I'll plan this out for you.
