I think a lot of the time, we just pull something from online and follow it (or barely follow it!) and call it a day. Sometimes we need someone to either confirm that it's a good plan, or help us to make a new one. I also think it helps to have someone push you a bit beyond your limits, as it's easy to get stuck in a training rut!

We're willing to dole out hundreds of dollars for registration, yet the training is the most important part. That's the part that triathletes need to invest in.<br /><br />I am super excited for you. You will not even believe the improvements. The only thing I will add is to stick with it for a year. That's when you see the biggest improvements.

That is really cool that you are learning new things and seeing a difference in your workouts! <br /><br />It's not the same thing, but I really benefited from the coaching provided by my running club coaches. I took about 10 minutes off my 1/2 PR and almost 20 off my marathon PR - all because of them. They pushed me and totally changed my approach to training which was just what I needed.<br /><br />I can't wait to see how this coaching is going to impact your ironman performance!!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.com
