    I'm in! New here to MFP - I've been doing tris for a few years, and have been seriously training this winter. I just joined b/c I've reached a plateau in terms of what I can lose without better tracking, and am looking for some help. I'm raining for an Olympic distance early July, so this is a pretty heavy training month for me. Goal - 2x Ironman distance:

    Current:
    Swimming: 1250 meters
    Biking: 44.4 miles
    Running: 0! (going out tonight)

    Goal:
    Swimming: 4.8 miles
    Biking: 224 miles
    Running: 52 miles

    Two races this month:
    June 16th - Century Ride
    June 23rd - 5 mile run

    6th June - Bike 17 miles, Swim 0.75 miles
    7th June - swim 1.25 miles, run 3.1 miles.

    Totals

    Bike = 95.5 miles
    Run = 10.1 miles

    I'm have a couple of events this weekend, 2k sea swim tomorrow evening and a 112 mile bike sportive on Sat. So today was light training and no long run to save the legs for Saturday :)

    Is it too late or can I join in too??? I've been looking for a good challenge to join.
    I'd like to shoot for the traiditional 2.4 swim, 112 bike, and 26.2 run. The bike will definitely be a challenge for me as it is my least favorite of the three. Hoping this will give me some motivation to get out there.

    I just had a sprint this past weekend. Have a 5k planned for June 24, then my next event will be an olympic distance on July 15.

    If I can postdate my workouts, so far I have...
    June 1 - 1ml swim
    June 3 - .3ml swim, 10ml bike, 3.1ml run

    Totals
    swim - 1.3mls
    bike - 10mls
    run - 3.1 mls

    Almost forgot to "sign up." I had a hard time meeting my bike goal last month and exceeded the swim and run. Soooo, I'll keep the bike the same, and increase the swim and run.

    GOALS:
    Swim: 4.0
    Bike: 112
    Run: 60

    June 2: Run 2.0
    June 3: Sprint tri + warm-up/cool-down: Swim 0.25, Bike 15.4, Run 4.0
    June 5: Swim 1.0
    June 6: Run 4.0
    June 7: Run 4.0

    TOTALS:
    Swim: 1.25
    Bike: 15.4
    Run: 14.0

    Just did a sprint tri last Sunday, stuggled with the swim as I just could not get into a rhythm. Oh well, some swims are like that. It was my first open water swim of the season. Next race is a half marathon on June 16.
