My cousin and myself have decided that we want to try to get in shape for an Ironman.
Having never really done this kind of exercize more than traditional cardio in the gym, I am obviously looking for someone who can shed some lift on the bicycling and running parts, what kind of training they would recommend, how much, and how to ramp it up.
I am thinking it will be a two year plan, where we aim to do our first Ironman in 2010, but if that is completely unrealistic, then I will of course have to modify that.
If anyone know any good books who shed light on this, please feel free to post them here too.

Re: Project Ironman
Pretty steady, i have started running next to my regular trainign regime thus far. Will probably start swimming in the next month or so. Been unable to find any training programmes, so sort of playing it by ear thus far.
