“You are an Ironman!” When you cross the finish line and hear those words, you’ve accomplished something very special.

Especially designed for age group triathletes with full time jobs and other commitments, the single goal of this 10-week training plan is to set you up for YOUR IRONMAN 70.3 ST CROIX SUCCESS on May 6, 2012.
Hand-crafted by USA Triathlon-certified coach and former pro triathlete David Glover, MS, CSCS this plan encapsulates his passion for the sport, dozens of Half and Full Ironman distance finishes (5 overall wins, 8:51 PR at Ironman distance) and his success coaching hundreds of triathletes.
Starting 10 weeks before your target race, this plan contains one base periods and one build period (14 hrs max per week) prior to peaking and tapering. Each week typically contains 3x swims, 3x bikes and 3x runs plus 1 BRICK run. During the plan, you will build up to: 3,000 yards (or meters) swimming, 3.5 hrs biking and 2 hrs running. Your weekly schedule includes optional time allocation for strength exercises and a designated off day (Monday). We recommend using a heart rate monitor in conjunction with perceived effort but you may use power as well.
