I will be using this blog to schedule group runs, seminars, and workouts for all my athletes and other people interested in doing the ultra. I will also be using this blog to document my training for the 2010 Vermont 100 Mile Ultramarathon. For official articles, please visit my other blog at http://coachjoegold.blogspot.com.

Week of March 8-14: Focus is on the Bike

First Week of the First Build is Successful. Let's go for 2!

The focus for this week is the bike, with 100 miles to do. If the weather actually warms up, I might try to venture outside for some real riding. I will be doing some work on the bike to make it road worthy and safe.

The distances for this week is 7000 meters of swimming, 100 miles of cycling, and 40 miles of running.

There will be 2 key workouts on the bike, with 1 on the swim and 1 on the run.

Key Workout #1: Swim Set 8x200 meters with 30 seconds rest in between reps

Key Workout #2: Bike - 30 miles intense aerobic on Computrainer - Ironman New Zealand

Key Workout #3: Bike - 20 miles intense aerobic on Computrainer - Ironman Canada

Key Workout #4: Run - 8 miles intense aerobic - Victory East Course (hilly)

Tomorrow is a unique start. As I have to do some business in Manhattan, I'll be starting off tomorrow with an easy paced 10 mile run through Bayonne to Journal Square (I'll be taking the Path train to NYC). I will be wearing a Camelbak on this run so that I can change into my dry clothes when I arrive in Manhattan.

Week two of the Build starts...
