Awesome plan seeks better editor, June 2, 2010
|
|
|
The plan itself is excellent and I've tried several. It's already making me a better triathlete. However, the writing/editing could be stronger. It's slightly cumbersome, requiring more page flipping and reading between the lines than I'd prefer, but for the modest investment required, the inconvenience is far outweighed by the strength of the plan.

Best Triathlon Book I have found!, May 28, 2010
|
|
|
I bought this book on the net after trawling through the many books on the subject. It's always a problem when choosing a book, if will be as described by the author and fit your needs. This book is very well written and gives direct and clear information on how to train for an Ironman event. My reason for purchasing this book was to get a structure for training and it has delivered. I intend to do the Barcelona Ironman in October the rest is up to me because I believe the book should deliver! Try it yourself.

Lots of good Information and facts., August 17, 2009
|
|
|
This book helps a lot. It teaches you how to train, when to train, what sorts of things you should do, and different foods to eat. This will help you prepare. It is a great purchase.

Poorly edited, May 22, 2009
|
|
|
The basics of the program and the information contained within this book are solid. However it was poorly edited. Several swim work outs on the schedule are not described in the work out description section. Why would the authors assume knowledge of these workouts, yet take the time to describe other basic workouts? The formatting of the workouts left me guessing on occasion as nomenclature meaning shifted from one day to the next. There's direction to refer to chapters that do not contain the information needed. Not a perfect reference, I hope it gets me to the finish line!

Great Training Plan for Those Who Need Daily Motivation, May 16, 2009
|
|
As can be seen in the description, this book assumes its reader is already in very good physical condition as he/she is moving FROM shorter triathlons to a longer "Endurance" or Ironman event. I find it very easy to use the daily training book as a coach pushing down workouts every single day. This leaves no excuse for not getting a solid workout it. Additionally, the program is properly set up (as would be by 3 very experienced, Olympic-level Ironman athletes/coaches) with Build, IM, Hard, Recovery, Taper and Race Week sections so as to not overtrain and to vary the intensity of the workouts. I think it's great. I'm currently on Week 13 for the second time as I'm doing Louisville this year. Enjoy!
