I Have A Plan...
I have a plan so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.
-Edmund, Blackadder III
Okay, training plan done. The Triathlete's Training Bible has guided me to a fairly reasonable goal of not dying in the race while preserving something like a life outside of the gym/pool/road. To help with my weak-ass running, Advanced Marathoning has provided (with some minor changes) an 18-week/55 miles-a-week program. I figure those miles plus the biking plus the swimming will at least allow me to finish the Jersey Short Marathon without shaming myself or my country. At least that is my hope.
17 week... 130 days. Seems like it should be more time than it is. Never enough time.
