Uhhh training info, T beat me to it!

Haha, Oh Theresa you read my mind (or vice-versa) because I just signed on so I could post TRAINING GUIDE INFORMATION when I saw your new entry. Anyway, I would love a copy of the 5280 article. Thanks! At some point I will likely pick up a guidebook such as the one you suggested, but for now I'm starting easy and just trying to get back in the habit of working out on a regular basis. Thus, I have found the training guidelines on the Tri For the Cure Web site to be helpful... it's just a simple calendar with suggested excercises for each day, with alloted rest days, and will get more detailed and intense as it gets closer to August. I find it helpful to have a simple reference guide so I can stay on track and have some sort of structure in my life. It'll be a couple months before I can pull out the big guns! So, http://www.triforthecure-denver.com/trainingplans.htmif you guys haven't seen it.

P.S. How's everyone doing? Glad you're feeling better T! How is Vail Gen? I'd love it if we could all get together sometime.

~Ciao~

Look, an Update! ... re: Training Guides

Don't know why everyone else hasn't posted in a bit (or at all ... *cough*Gen*cough*), but I'm just now getting over the sickness of death that has been fairly prevalent and about. As a result, not much gym time for me lately. I wanted to go, but I've been good and been forcing myself not to go. Woo! Now that I'm better (or getting there), I've begun to venture back, but at a definitely reduced pace.

In any case, not working out gave me time to do other stuff like clean my room and go through old magazines and stuff. One of which was 5280 Magazine ... and what do you know, one of the back issues I had actually had a triathlon training guide in it! The very shortened version is here; I ripped out and kept the actual article which was much more in depth - didn't have the training guide, but y'know.*

Along the lines of training guides, I think I may have to pick up this, sent along to me by a friend, Brian, whose wife Heather does tris, so much thanks to them!

Now hopefully this sickness can STAY AWAY so I can get back on track with training ...


* Which, Amber and Gen, if you want copies of said article, let me know.
