Register for Ironman Louisville and get a free training program

So where can you sign up for an Ironman race and get a free six month training program included with your entry fee? The answer, Ironman Louisville.

This fine Southern race features a time trial start, a scenic ride in the Kentucky countryside, great local support, one of the greatest finish lines on the Ironman circuit, and of course the toasty summer heat, but to entice athletes to sign up sooner rather than later, the race is offering a free six-month training plan for those individuals that sign up before 11:59 p.m. EST on Thursday, January 31.

Ironman Louisville Race Director, Beth Atnip, has developed a complimentary six-month training plan that will prepare you for the August 25, 2013 event.

The training program starts on Monday, February 25 and taking athletes all the way up until race day, the training plan includes the following:

• Proper build and rest periods;
• Specific daily workouts to include swimming, biking and running;
• 60+ swim workouts to choose from;

• Ironman Louisville race week and race day tips for success;

• Ability to adjust the program based on your schedule; and
• Nutrition tips for successful training and racing.
