July Plans
So what is on the plate for July? The running will be the one that will be hardest to beat, but with my trail running class starting tomorrow I should do fine with that stat. With the Luna Rides I will cream the bike stats so keeping up with my swimming will be the challenge.

Breaking it down
BIKE: I need to do at LEAST 16 miles on the bike per week, to beat last year. I would like to take it up a notch and goal for 100 miles on the bike, so that is 25 miles per week average. The 4 LUNA Wednesday 15+ rides and the 2 LONGER rides (35 and 40 miles) that are planned this month = 135 miles and if I also do some errand rides and smaller hill repeat practices then 100 miles will be easy to meet. Maybe I should even goal for 150… but let’s not get too crazy! So I WILL bike 100 miles (or more) this month.
SWIM: To beat last year I need to do a least 1100 meters per week. Since my typical trip to the pool is 800 meters, 2 trips per week for the whole month will bring me to 6400 meters. So I will swim 6000 meters (or more) this month.
RUN: This is the area where I need the most improvments and practice. Last year I jog/walked 10.5 miles during the month. I really think I need to double that to get where I want to be for the races. If I jog/walk at least 5 miles per week, in 2 sessions of 2.5-3.2 miles then I can easily reach this goal. it is just getting myself out there. Luckily, I have 3 planned trail runs with Tory and one with the LUNA CHIX TRI team. Which will get me close enough that adding a few other little runs should make this an acceptable goal. so I WILL run (AKA jog/walk) 20 miles (or more) this month!
Strength Training and general cardio will fit in easily so I don’t think I need to set those goals. Whew! lots to do, luckily the month is getting off to a reasonably good start despite the little ankle twist.

Great goals and plans, good luck! Hope your shoulder and ankle cooperate.
What program did you use to create this plan? I love it!
