Week 1 Training Plan

Since this blog is supposed to be about our Ironman year and what it takes to get us there, we have decided that we will occasionally post overviews of our weekly training plans. I can't promise we will post them every week because, heck, we will be spending most of our time training! But we will try to do it as often as possible.

We will be leaving out all the intimate details of our workouts and instead just listing the amount of time we are supposed to spend doing each discipline. If you want to know more about the individual workouts, email me and I will send you links to our online training logs, where we write the details of our workouts each day along with some commentary. It's true that we could post everything here and keep it all in one place, but out of respect for our coach and the time she spends creating our personalized training plans, we are electing not to share them with the entire world. Because the entire world is reading our blog, after all... ;-)

Enough disclaimers -- now for the training plans. Here is Week 1 (last week), with Week 2 (this week) to follow in a separate post.
