    How would you go about setting out 100km in a week?

    Say you want to run between 04:00 and 04:30, all things being equal wrt to cycling training, athletic ability, nutrition, etc?

    Think I should just get a coach and get on with it.

    Don Fink, author or Be Iron Fit, strongly believes in 2 bric sessions a week. Maybe try incorporating a very short run after both of your cycling sessions a week - start at 10 mins, etc?

    Great, thanks for the info. What does your speedwork sessions look like? Just normal kinda warm up, X x Y intervals, warm down? Same with hill repeats? Shaper, how do you plan cycling during the week then? EmJay - are you a good swimmer, or a newbie like me? I try and swim 4 times a week during lunch at the moment, but I've only started swimming in December for the first time in my life. So is 4 sessions a week overdoing it? I try and approach swimming not as exercising, but as practising. Trying to just get the muscle memory formed to settle into my technique (which still needs a lot of work I guess).

    How do you guys approach your running training blocks? 3 weeks on, 1 rest, etc? Especially for HIM and, more specifically, IM distances. How would you structure your weeks, eg. 5 runs a week: 2 x intervals, 2 x shorter bric runs, 1 x long run?

    If it is back to basics with just yourself on the course, etc, why is it the same price as a fully catered for 70.3 then? Does look like a nice, very tough race though!
  14. Anyone else did the 2 day version before?
  15. Didn't plan on going this year, but my brother convinced me to do the 2 day version with him, so ja, will see you guys there.
  16. Probably got it for the potholes on the commute back home.
  17. I would love to go and watch, but I don't currently have a pair of Salomon trail running shoes to pair with my brightly coloured, calf high cycling socks and mirror-glassed Oakleys. Will this be ok?
