Picked A Coach!

After a bit of deliberation, a few meetings, and several beers I decide to go with Endurance Nation (EN).  Last Saturday I got the chance to sit down with several of the people coached by them and go over the training, the season planning, the support, and all things Ironman.  It was a lot of fun and several of the people seemed very knowledgeable and helpful.  The things that attracted me most to the company were the structure of the workouts, the season planning detail, and the focus racing.  EN seems pretty focused on making sure that race day is a smooth, fun experience.


There is still some work to do with adding in races I'd like to do to their "season map" but that shouldn't take too long.  Once that's finished, I'll post that as well.  More than likely money will be the biggest limiting factor in the racing this season.  Next time I'm picking a cheaper sport!  :)

 

EN has a pretty detailed workout tracking tool and I’m going to look into ways to post the data on the sight. The training program starts next week and I’ll do manual posts until I get the automated piece figured out.
