We posted this question in our closed Crushing Iron Facebook group and it got a ton of comments: Can you go from Couch to Ironman in 16 Weeks? Obviously it depends on where the person is in their life and what they've done before, but we think having a shorter, more focused window can actually be a benefit. This will also translate if you're doing a shorter race and think you've run out of time. You probably haven't.
