About Me
- Iron Quest
- Rockford, Illinois
- I started to casually run 5k's, 10k's, and half marathon's in the late 90's. My first real triathlon was the Pigman Half Ironman in 2004. Since then I have slowly but consistently improved my fitness while competing in a variety of multisport races each year. However, I have always shied away from the full Ironman. Until 2009 that is. I am creating this blog to chronicle my quest to become an Ironman on September 13th, 2009 in Madison, Wisconsin. On that day, the first and main goal will be to finish. But to me, I hope it is much more than that. This is a way for me to get to know myself better. It is a way to test my limits and see where they might be. I believe that life truly is a game of inches. The inches I need to get better and become an Ironman are all around me. My Ironman prep is in everything I eat, the way I think, the way I train, and the way I influence others. Striving and fighting for those inches is truly living. What am I going to do? Come back here to find out. My blog is a place where I will chronicle my training and give my personal opinions on health and fitness.

Hey we gotta figure out how to branch out more than just what i've been doing, (hey follow my blog)! lol
ReplyDeleteIf you want to branch out, I've got a few ideas. All of them will help out 1)triathlon 2)body fat % 3)cardiovascular fitness....Do you have a place to workout--gym, etc?
ReplyDeleteSteve, I will post some more info on your blog.
ReplyDeleteI guess I will my response here too :
ReplyDeleteIdeally, without geting too crazy, you would run 3 days per week. Each one of those runs would be a different type: 1-hills: 4-8 for 1-2 minutes (warm up first, total running time 20+ minutes) 2- long run: run a little bit longer than your longest run from the previous week. 3-Tempo/speed: run at a faster pace than normal, either in intervals or for the entire time (warm up first)
Then to mix it up: 3 other days per week do the following: either ride a stationary bike for 30 min+ or to a circuit workout similar to this one http://trizack.blogspot.com/2008/12/jump-ropelifting-intervals.html in that workout the basic idea is to alternate one lifting exercise with one cardio exercise and give yourself no rest in between. The cardio exercise can be anything --running, eliptical, biking, jump rope, squat thrusts, etc. The lifting exercises, we can talk more about. They should be major muscle exercises though - such as pushups, squats, shoulder press, pullups/lat pull downs. body weight rows, dips. This is a killer workout for overall fat burning, metabolism, muscle tone, and over physical fitness.
