Annual Training Hours of A- Age Grouper

What distances do you do? I’m guessing Olys?

I was actually considering making a topic asking what sort of minimum weekly hours people would recommend for an athlete to reach FOP-ish status in Olympic distance races… I’m not positive what “A-” means but considering I’m probably a “C-” I’m all ears for training tips.

Damn, I was looking for a quick fix, like some secret Chinese herbs… :wink:

want a quick fix, a secret just about no one knows about but sure to make you wicked fast?

Eat a spoonfull of poop every day - ya I know is sounds aweful - but you will get used to it. In less than a year you will be taking home hard ware from every race. I guarantee it.

PS - don;t tell anyone else our secret to fast tris

that’s great. i thought you were going to tell jmg to actually put in some volume but eating poop…that’s awesome!!

but, don’t spoil our secret.

You only race in sprints with those training numbers??
“I race Sprints, and I won’t move up in distance until I can make a respectable result in a big-ish race.” What is a respectable finish for you?

I think that is the main reason that a lot of our NBA boys stayed home for the Olympics… because they were afraid of losing. (sorry for the off topic remark)

Go out and hammer an Olympic Tri while you can… you could get run over by a beer truck tomorrow!!!

Happy Training :slight_smile:

Wait a minute… then I should already be fast!
