out season leads into early season Olympic

I'm going to Lava man Maui for Olympic race on 25 March, which is a good early season test. My first of three 70.3 is Victoria in June 3rd.  I assume I should start right into 70.3 training now as an overlap now since I calculate that I am out 13 weeks.  I am healthy and training about 14 hours per week currently.  My results can be seen on Strava.  My ?, should I wait to begin my 70.3 after March 25th.   Thanks Eugene.

  • Eugene.-

    Great question. I recommend that you wait until after your Olympic to jump
    into the 70.3 plan. That leaves you with still 10 weeks until June 3 which
    is more than enough time to capitalize on the work you have done this out
    season.

    Remember, we have to balance the quality training of the winter with the
    volume training of your season. With 3 x 70.3 is on your schedule, you have
    a full year of Endurance training, making this winter training time even
    more important to get done right. I hope that helps!
