  • Coach Patrick, I don't know if you read this post? Thanks!
  • Juan sorry, Boston Marathon. :) do week 16 this week for time, not intensity...and then we skip ahead to week 18 next week...hopefully at a normal level!
  • Thanks coach! And congrats for Boston!! I'll keep you informed...
  • Hi coach! Since I got sick and been with antibiotics... I haven't being able to recover 100%... I follow your advice on not putting intensity for this week, but my heart rate is always high! I'm on week 18 for IMTX and on saturday is my last RR, what should I do to recover my fitness or my heart rate? Thanks!!
  • One, sorry I was away at a cycling camp last week and over the weekend. Please let me know either this weekend regarding the rehearsal and I can help you from there. Again my apologies.
  • Thanks Coach! No worries... Felling better since saturday ride! My heart rate has normalized! The problem that I have right now to be honest is that I have only 10 days until IMTX and I haven't been swimming to much.. :/ perhaps I have made a 25% of the swimming, a 90% of the bike and a 85% of the run... Any recomendations for this 10 days for the swimming? And for last... I'll be doing IMMT in august and IMAZ in november, in what week should I start again the traning aftes IMTX? How many days should I rest after IMTX? Thanks!!
  • Nice job in TX!!!
  • Thanks coach! Any recomendation on how many days I have to rest before starting training for IMMT? In what week should I start the training? Thanks!
  • Juan - you should be in the transition plan, for a minimum of two if not three weeks. Once your heart rate starts to correlate with your actual effort, we can then think about starting training again.
