Mike, I purchased my first IM training program from D3 Multisport after lots of research of different training programs. I have done many triathlons over the last 3 years and decided to give an IM a shot. I was weary of how my body would do; having never done a marathon (though over 15 1/2…

At 50 years old, though, I…
