To do something this big, you've got to have a plan - and anyone who knows me well knows that I rarely do anything without a plan.
So right now I'm focused on my running because I'm doing my first marathon this November. My longest training run thus far has been 14 miles, although I'm adding 1 mile to that this coming weekend. Once that is done, I'm going to add swimming and cycling back into the mix to work on technique and building a good solid base over the winter. I also plan on hiring a swim coach to help me with my stroke since the swim is definitely my weakest event of the three.
To help me prepare for the Eagleman (half-Iron) in June and the Ironman WI next September, I plan on getting a triathlon coach. I need the expert advice on this one to keep me strong and injury free.
So that's the plan - in general - for the next year. Of course, there'll be little races here and there, but those three big ones are on my A-List.

Hey, with whom are ya doin' that Nov. marathon?
Why don't you join the TNT tri team? Training for something that big alone? Yuck. Save some lives like ya used to - GO TEAM!
I did a strong 20 miler last weekend. Broke in new shoes though, or should I say they broke me in. Still bloody from it, which sent me to the pool for water running this week.
Go Daniel, Go Badgers, Go Team, GO IRON!
