David's Macro Thread to IM MD 2015

Rich,

Thanks for the TSR.  You scheduled the Bike or Run FP for the next four weeks, as I have a half-iron distance race on 11/2/14.  Since, I've already been training for the race on another plan, does the FP replace my current plan, or is that in addition to my current training plan?

Also, I'm not sure if this question goes in the Macro or Micro forum, but this race is actually a double Olympic.  Meaning after you do the first Olympic, you start it all over again...a total of 5 transitions.  Are there any strategies for this type of race?

Thanks,

David

    David,

    You didn't indicate on your survey that you were doing this race so I didn't plan for it. Please:

    • Go back to your TSR
    • Edit the races to indicate this one
    • I'll redo your TSR. 

    Thanks,

    Rich,

    Sorry for the confusion.  I have a double Olympic tri coming up on 11/2/14.  In this event, after finishing the first Olympic, you do it all over again...a total of 5 transitions.  For me the 1500m swim after a full Olympic will be the most difficult part.

    I've been training on another program, and my reason for joining EN is to build a plan for to get through a full iron in 2015.  Currently, I think my endurance is fairly good, but if I can get some help/strategic advice on how to attack this event in the next 4 weeks, that would be great.  I spoke with Coach Patrick today, and he thought it made sense to join now, as I could probably use the help and practice planning/executing for this event.

    Also, I tried to add the event to my TSR, but I think because I'm still in the trial period, it won't let me back in to edit my data.  But if I have that wrong, please let me know how.

    Thank for your help and advice,

    David

    Ok, I see a new submission from you so I'll redo this. If you want to get advice on how to execute that race, please post your questions over here in the Race Execution Discussion Forum
