I’ve been “inconsistently” training for the last few months and registered for 70.3. WI (Male 49)
Training background last year-Inconsistent-Some weeks 10 hrs and some weeks 3-4 hrs.
Tri career: 10 years tri experience (mainly sprints and few Oly). No races in last 5 years but did some swim/bike/run training and last race a 5K race in 2022 (19'50).
Few Stats:
Swim: average 1:30 scy base
Bike: can ave 175-180w for 1hr (21.4mph) (30 min test 200w)
Run: recent 5K 21'50 (off of the bike and only a few runs)
I know it won't be my best/potential but trying to see the positives of training even though I probably won't reach my potential with the limited time.
What can I gain from training? experience, new training strategies What should be my expectations and best approach to training for the final 10 weeks?
Am I rushing it ?
