Hopefully a Boston Trifuel team can get organized in mid January when everyone gets back from their holiday vacations. I want to start training on Jan. 15th for the AMICA IRONMAN RHODE ISLAND in July of 2009. Plus I'm on the search for a great personal trainer in Boston to help me with strength training and injury prevention throughout my six month training period.

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know of any good clubs I could train with in the Boston area. I looked at the trimapper, but I didn't see any in the actual Metro Boston area. Maybe I am not searching properly. Any ideas would be great. Thanks. Gabrielle

Who should I contact about joing the Boston Trifuel team? Does the team in Boston train together?

Does anyone know who I can contact about joining?

Is it too much to do a marathon the first weekend in May and a Half Ironman the last weekend in June?

Signed up for IM Louisville and would like recommendations on training plans. Have the book Training Plans for Multisport Athletes. Is it better for a first timer to use the 13 week or 26 week plan? I have a backgroound of masters swimming, Several half iron aquabike events and long distance running.
