Hi Xavier,

This is your very own “Macro Thread” where you and I can discuss any questions you may have about the Triathlon Season Roadmap (TSR) that I created for you here. This is also a space where we can discuss any big picture, season planning, race schedule and other related issues you may have going forward.

Welcome aboard!

  • Hi Rich,

     

    Thanks. One question, you asked me to load up the beginner plan. I didnt mention it, but it is going to be my 4th IM (one time IMWIS en twice IM Maastricht). Additionally, I would like to score a big PR at Lanzarote, especially improving on the bike and run. Bike splits were between 5:30 and 6:00, run between 4:15 and 4:25 (Marathon PR is 3:24). I don't think qualifying for Kona is a realistic option, but I am willing to see how close I can get to the qualifying spots. 

    In addition, the two OD's in my plan are qualifying races for the ITU finals, and I haven't even registered for IM Maastricht. If I would decide to do that, I guess it would be after the OD Weert in June. 

    Anyway, these are my thoughts, if you want to reflect on them, please do, 

    thank you, Xavier

  • Hi,

    Guess what, reading my post again, I realize there was no question. Here it is. Considering my experience, which I didn't mention in my first introduction, is a Beginner Trainingplan still the best, or would an intermediate (of advanced) be more suitable?

    Thanks, Xavier

  • Sorry, please use the Advanced plans. Not sure where I got Beginner, likely a typo. Nice catch!
