OS VS IRONMAN

I thougt i herd somewhere that we did the OS plan up to a certain point and then changed to an ironman plant that taylored to us. I race in may and could accually almost finish the rest of the OS plan and take me right to a tapper. If there is a change in my plan would anyone know when or how that happens. I believe the swim gets added somewhere as well.

  • Shawn,

    Please see the Season Plan I created for you when you created your trial membership/joined the team. That will indicate when you make the switch from your OS plan to the IM plan.

    FYI, you make that plan switch yourself: see the Move/Change My Training Plan link in the right sidebar of your training plan page. Use that to load up the IM plan in your account to end on your race.

  • Thanks rich, i dont mean to be stupid, but how do i find and view the plan you created for me when i joined. i see how to move/change my plan. It shows a 4 week plan, but it also drops down a box with alot of options. Sorry, but i cant figure this one out.
  • Shawn, I sent that to you as a screenshot in an email. So it will live on your end as an email, it's not inside the platform here.
  • thanks rich i will look ar it
  • nothing in email if you sent it,, beckstrombodyshop@gmail.com,, thanks
  • Hi rich, I just migrated my os plan to the ironman plan, but I only saw a 20 week plan option. My a race is may 19 and this plan puts me done in July. The problem is that I miss a lot of the long workouts, because they are in the last few months. Is there an intermediate ironman plan for 12 weeks. I need to look at the email you sent me back in November, but I'm out of town and don't have access to your original email.
  • Shawn - when you "Move/Change" your plan, pick the end date of the plan to correspond with your race date. Here is the link from the wiki on how to move/change your plan:
    http://screencast.com/t/hME8dc2JNq . So what you do is select the 20-week IM plan, choose the corresponding date, and then your plan is loaded. You will then see that you are in 'Week 9' (or so) of the IM Plan. The first 8 weeks are for those folks that aren't doing an OS.

    And this page of the wiki is a "MUST READ": http://members.endurancenation.us/Resources/Wiki/tabid/108/Default.aspx?topic=Screencasts+and+Help+Videos

    Hope this helps.
  • Joe this will help a lot. I did set the date and it still loaded the 20 week plan. I will look at this link. Thanks for your help
