My goal is to train so that I can finish Ironman Florida '14 in under 10 hours. I finished in 10:12 and 10:14 respectively in '08 and '09. I haven't finished an Ironman since. I don't train like I used to. Not even close. Don't plan on it either. But think based on experience and a base built up over several years now, it is attainable. I plan to swim in 1:10; ride 5 hours, and run 3:40. This is my journey....

Thursday: 20 mile bike; 3 mile run; 1 mile swim; strength
The problem with swimming is that it takes so much time just to get in a 1 mile - 30 min - swim. In the same time that it takes me to leave my place, get to the gym, swim, shower, and then come back, I could have biked just about 2 hours. And if I swim for 2 miles - over 60 minutes--that's almost a 56 mile bike ride. Swimming is not very time efficient. Nevertheless, I need to swim more.
