GFNY Training and prep - anyone else prepping for May?
Bit of a multi-part question here so aplogies if this isn't the place.
Skippable backstory:
I graduated the B-18 Sig a few years back but have been off the bike for a while. I'm 48 and a few pounds the wrong side of 200.

And thanks to this awful weather, I am already behind in my preparation.
So...
I want to do a pretty robust 12-week training program starting March 1, with the aim to be ready to go on May 18th.
My questions:
