Totals

This year marks the end of five years of written training journals. To be honest, I stopped mid year in favor of training peaks and strava. Moving forward I plan on only using strava to track my data. Currently just have a free account but may upgrade to premium. Training peaks was just used to communicate with my coach for ironman training.
My written journals were nothing fancy- just the day, type of activity and distance. Occasionally I would write trail or treadmill to account for lower numbers. I usually noted first outdoor ride and swim of the year. Occasionally wrote if a particular day was a race and if I did well or not. I never track activities I do with the kids, even if it is longer distances cause I figue I am not working as I would for training. Occasionally I may track core activities like body rock, yoga, and skiing. Just on a monthly not yearly basis. Moving forward with Strava I will likely track.

I was particularly interested this year to see how much more training I did to be able to complete IronmanS.  Note the S- as in more than one.
