Hey,

I’m after some advice from everyone. I completed Ironman Wales last year and had a great time. I’m never going to be FOP and I’m not interested in being, I find completing more fun.

I’ve got a young family (2 1/2 year old and a baby on the way) so I’m hanging up my triathlon boots for now as I’m not prepared to sacrifice family life. Having said that I will still be keeping fit and am keen on having a target to aim for.

The target I’ve set myself is a sub-3hr marathon. I’m happy to play the long game and build up from shorter distances whilst time is more of a premium. Would you suggest starting with 5K specific racing then up the distances when I hit certain race time targets?

I’m open to ideas!
