In 2016 I’m doing an Ironman 70.3 Triathlon – it’s known as a Half Ironman, as it’s (as you’d expect) half the distance of a full Hawaii-style Ironman event, but nevertheless it’s a proper Ironman endorsed event. What the 70.3 equates to is the distance in miles – a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile bike ride, ending in a 13.1 mile half marathon. It’s going to be a challenge, but it’s definitely achievable, so I’ll keep a log of my progress here, which I’m going to split into:
o - Triathlon notes – general thoughts and comments as we work towards the event.
o - Triathlon training – where I’ll try to keep you abreast of how the preparation is going.
Wish me luck…
