2013 IM Mentoring

BtS has also only done one, and haven't you only done one too KK?  Assuming we are talking single IM races here.

Yup only the single and the double for me.

so you should do the triple next

I think I'll pretend I can't count up to 3!

Did't Garr do the first Frankfurt too? '06.

edit: Yes, he did, so that's three for Garr. 

Add me to the done 1 list... for the moment

Attempted one, but yet to succeed!   I shall be back for another try, but not next year, too many other things going on, and I want to improve my running and reduce my weight first.  Then I shall be back and a contender for first prize *

Maybe in the Most Miserable award!  *runs off*

Garr did Nice as well

Garr has done Zurich, Frankfurt and Nice.

He reckons he's going to do IMW next year. I hope he does!

Yeah you'd better keep running!

*bounces in*

Oh oh me me please! Am almost doing Outlaw next year (really really want to just need to get head round all that training!)

Have already nabbed Rio (insert MASSIVE grin here)

Am also Midlands and will be a Market Bosworth swimmer (splasher)

Currently 45mins for 1m swim, just back to biking and running with tri to Oly distance and running to marafun under my belt in the past.

Stubborn old fool turning 40 next year and want to have this as a mid life crisis.

Hoping to do Middle Boar in Sept if I can.

Now when do I tell the family my plan?

Oh and also just starting back at WW to lose the lard so any mutual support beatings with that would also be appreciated!

Again a tad late so might have missed the boat. But bitten the bullet and going to go for the Outlaw in 2013. Would love a mentor to subject to the really stupid questions, which are somehow easier to ask over the interweb!

Just qualified as a Doctor and start work in a week - so a bit terrified about that. Also unsure about time etc, but Ironman is full of stories of people who manage ridculous working hours, families etc and thrive.

Did the cotswold 113 in 5:41 and absolutely loved it. Goal for the Outlaw would be sub-12 (is this realistic??) / just finishing. My plan is currently work on swim/core/trying not to kill too many people at work. Then start the Fink intermediate program.

Love training with my garmin - tend to feel that without it runs and rides don't count. However would love to really get to grips with heart rates and utilise them properly. Also no idea about nutrition, so would love guidance around this.

Also saving up for a bike so expect a barrage of bike related posts in a few months!

Based in Salisbury.

Been a lingerer on the forums for a while, it was this forum that started the whole flippin' thing.

If anyone has the time to spare, I would hugely appreciate it.

Welcome HP

Don Fink "Be Iron Fit" is a good read and explains all about heart rate training.
