Ironman training so far

Well where can i start training so far this year has been going better than expected,i am feeling stronger at this point now than i did when i was at the start line for ironman uk in august,just got to keep up the good consistent hard work,the weight sessions are paying off too because i feel i have more power on the bike and i can push harder for longer periods of time ,i notice that the harder i work on the bike the better my running too, i done a 20 mile training race in hemel hempstead 2 weeks ago the course is brutal ,hills all the time, long drags and i still run it in 2 hours 10 mins well pleased,got some time trials coming up so can test this power out and see where i need to work on.
Nearly into the last 11 weeks of training and this is the most crucial part of training with quality and quantity playing a big part.
I know one thing come june 22nd i will be in the best possible shape of my life ready for ironman france,i am training with another ironman athlete Graham who keeps me on my toes being an ex para hard as nails and its good to get out and have company cause i have always done the training on my own,i still like to get out on my own and get lost in my own thoughts cause it gives you that mental edge come race day,it all you out there.well thats it for now blog again soon!
