For those of you interested in the Ironman training aspect here is the update. It is has been a bit difficult to train but so far I have gotten in 2 bikes rides of about 2 hours each and several runs in the 30-45 min range and one short swim.
I am now in the FL Keys and I will be able to train more regularly for the next 2 weeks. The goal by the end of March is to be up to 3-4 hours on the bike and 1-1/2 hours running and to maintain my swimming at 2-2 1/2 hours.I have completely given up on maintaining any respectable pace and just trying to maintain a fitness level.
Fatigue is becoming a major factor as the effects of the hormone treatment kick in full force. This is shaping up to be the most difficult physical event of my life. I hope I can hang in there.
(For Marc, Hope and Tracy) Stretching and TRX have also been difficult to get to, but I am getting back on track and I am generally OK so far. I miss my treatments and Pilate's!!
Oh for those of you you don't know what is going on here. I have a significant medical issue that impacts me on many levels. I have decided to get out and do somethings. If you want to know more about my medical issue you can visit my website by clicking here https://sites.google.com/site/dollarb58/
After 30 years of non stop working I recently purchased a new truck camper and in 2011, I will be traveling around camping, fishing and oh yeah training for the 2011 Lake Placid Ironman Triathlon.
