The Plan...

Athletes training for Olympic Distance Triathlons often train 2-3 times the distance they race. Runners who race 5K's often train 3-6 times the distance. Why is it that triatletes training for Ironman rarely approach the distance, much less double it? How about a 17 hour training day is a site developed to follow the progress of a team of athletes completing a study on the effects of such training.

The 2009 17 hour training day crew had great success at Ironman Canada. We are currently developing the 2010 team. Check back in late November for the next installment of "The 17 hour training day" crew.

17 Hour Training Day

Posted on 1:11 PM No Comments
WOW! We did it! July 4th the group began their swim at Chatfield State Park (under special permit) at 5am and finished running at 10pm surrounded by firework displays.

The 4 of us are getting together to have a meeting this evening to go over the experience because we all wanted to go home and go to bed!

We will write more after the meeting but wanted to let everyone know the day was a huge success and we want to say THANK YOU to everyone who came out and supported the day.
