Triathlon Training

This page links to various articles on triathlon, marathon, and ultra running training. In general I have a low-mileage, low-injury philosophy on training, due mostly to the fact that I hold a full-time job and I believe in balancing training with other aspects of life.

• Training for an ironman. A few postings by Dan Becker and Ian Driver
• Training for a 100 mile trail run. Leadville strategy by IBMer Dana Roeuche.
• Training for a marathon. 15 week program by Benji Durden, from Runner's World.

Here's a progress report on Dan's goal to run a marathon in all 50 states. I've run about 20 marathons, but they have been mainly in Florida and Texas.
