FitOldDog’s Daily Training Diary (Day 32) - From Aortic Surgery To The 2014 Lake Placid Ironman - Back In The Swim

Countdown to Lake Placid Ironman

Stent OK, thanks to Tara and her team! Training begins in earnest:

Swim: Standard but short (it’s early days) Rick workout: 2,600 yards

400 yard warmup

4 x 300 yard broken with 30 sec rest interval (Rick’s being kind)

Greg joined us, and he gave me a run for my money. I look forward to competing with him at the Eagleman half - want to take bets on how far ahead of me he'll be at the finish - my guess is 1 hour 25 min? Hopefully, Greg'll have a beer waiting for me.

  1. Straight
  2. Broken @ 150, 10 sec ri
  3. Broken @ 100, 10 sec ri
  4. Broken @ 75, 10 sec ri (this is the one that kicks your ass if you do #1 too fast (made it by 4 secs).

4 x 200 pull

200 cool down

Have lots of work to do in the pool, clearly I’m like a limp noodle.
