Goals

I work best by setting small incremental goals and trying for the next highest one. I may not make it in the next work out I do for that portion, but it is what I'm trying for. On the right side it displays my current goals. Some have two goals for inside & outside since I know the treadmill, stationary bike, and pool are nothing like the trail run, roads, and lake that I will be doing. Whenever an outside distance is accomplished it will automatically fill the inside goal if the inside one has not already been achieved.

Swimming
One length = 25m. So 60 lengths = 1.5km of race.
  • 30 lengths of any style w/o stop - DONE 1/25
  • 40 lengths of any style w/o stop - DONE 4/25
  • 50 lengths of any style w/o stop - DONE 5/1
  • 60 lengths of any style w/o stop - DONE 5/1
  • 40 lengths freestyle w/o stop - DONE 5/1
  • 50 lengths freestyle w/o stop - DONE 5/1
  • 60 lengths freestyle w/o stop - DONE 5/1
  • 30 lengths freestyle w/o stop in under 18 min
  • 30 lengths freestyle w/o stop in under 15 min
  • 60 lengths freestyle w/o stop in under 35 min
  • 60 lengths freestyle w/o stop in under 30 min
  • 750 m in open water
  • 1500 m in open water
  • 1500 m in open water in under 35 min
  • 1500 m in open water in under 30 min
Biking
Full length for biking is 40K (~25 miles)
  • 15 miles inside - DONE 1/27
  • 20 miles inside (see outside)
  • 25 miles inside (see outside)
  • 10 miles outside - DONE 4/27
  • 15 miles outside - DONE 5/17
  • 20 miles outside - DONE 5/17
  • 25 miles outside - DONE 5/17
  • 25 miles outside in under 90 min
  • 25 miles outside in under 85 min
Run
Full length for running is 10K (6.2 miles)
  • 5K in under 30 min inside - DONE 1/21
  • 4 miles in under 40 inside (see outside)
  • 8K in under 50 min inside (see outside)
  • 5K in under 30 min outside DONE 3/8 (Appears to be about 28:30)
  • 4 miles in under 40 min outside DONE 3/8 (Appears to be about 37:30)
  • 8K in under 50 min outside DONE 3/8
  • 10K in under 60 min outside
Combining
Eventually I need to combine them and get my body used to the transitions. I'm not entirely sure what those goals are going to specifically be. My training plan will be to do things in the correct order and perhaps start small. For example bike for 30 minutes then run for 10. Then up it to bike for 30, run for 30. When I get closer to really focusing on these I will revise these goals with actual distances.
