I am just coming back from 2yrs triathlon hiatus and I still have the same aspiration to go fast as when I stopped 2years ago.
My life now is more hectic. kids, full time job and a business but im still finding a little pocket of opportunities to train even an hour or 2 a day. I want to maximize those hours instead of just training aimlessly and hope I would gain something from it. I do believe I am very consistent athlete and knows how to prioritize my day. The problem is I am in the loosing battle with my recovery. I work the night shift and I cannot get enough sleep during the day. I sleep for 3hrs and im done. I do take naps when I can that can go from 1hr to 3hrs long. This what Ive done before and finished 11:13 at IMLP . I want to crack 11hrs at IMFL this year but I do believe that my recovery is impending my performance.
Can you share your experience if youve cracked the 11hrs mark and in the similar situation
or
is it better to invest in a coach to help me figure things out. Realistically right now I may only have 12hrs to train but Ive seen and heard people train less and have good results.
Thanks ST
