Is your husband the one who just did the sprint tri? My H and I are thinking about doing one late next fall. What plan did YH use? How long did he train for?
I want to do this, but at the same time, I think it might kill me! lol

Re: Alise
yes he did! I'll ask him specifics when he gets home...but i know he gets his plans from the triathletes training bible...i got it for him a few years ago.
as long as you do research, and don't go into the race unprepared, I definitely think you can do it!
Right now, he swims for a masters swim team three mornings a week, and then does other various running and biking workouts during the week as well.
I'm actually thinking about doing one in september 2011...there's an all womens one near us!
ok...he said that he started training in January with weight training, and then he didnt start running and biking until february. He'll train until August when we go on our honeymoon, and then he'll start training in September for the half-marathon that he runs.
HOWEVER....he takes it really seriously (he was 11th out of 255 at the one on sunday)...and the next one he's doing is a regional qualifier for nationals.
There's no need to train like him if you simply want to finish a triathlon
goodluck!
Thanks! I just want to finish and be able to say that I have completed a tri. I'll look into some training plans...
Thank you!
