I've listed the workouts (by four week period) in my 6 month journey toward completing Louisville Ironman. The schedule was provided by Nancy McElwain ofTrainsmart . The schedule was designed for me and worked around races, family and fatigue - so I wouldn't advise using it for training purposes. However, it will give you an idea of what I had to do to get to the starting line.

Also (for information purposes) when I started: I was running about 5 miles a day, 5 days a week, I had spent, at most, 30 minutes on a stationary bike and I could go about 400 yards in a pool without stopping.
