Just completed my training records for January. After not quite a full month of proper training, courtesy of Ian Murphy, I did a total of just over 50 hours, 28.2k swim, 504k bike and 127k running. Weight loss was exactly 2kg and a reduction in body fat of 1.5% points. I feel very positive that I'm making progress, but also still daunted by the amount I have to do. The distances recorded in January correspond to 74%/28%/30% of the full Deca distances respectively and that all has to be done in 2 weeks! One other positive is that I don't feel so exhausted after this amount of training. In the past, I've got fatigued and then had to stop training for a while. It's obvious that Ian has me on a gradual path of progression and this seems to be working for me. Train smarter not harder, as they say.
So a good start and it is only the beginning. Bring it on!
