So I back from the Treasure Island Triathlon in San Francisco and Im getting all the video’s ready for you guys. So for the next few days come visit again and check the new ones out. This is the first video I took while I was there.
As for my training, I’m back in business once again. Now its the off season and I have decided to begin my switch to Olympic distance races so my mileages are going to increase as such. Today I started late because of my traveling so I just did a run. Got 8.75 miles in tonight in about 65 minutes of running. Not a horrible pace by any means. Tomorrow Ill be hitting the pool for a few thousand yards and more than likely a bike/run brick. More to come!
Shaved legs, something only the truly devoted will wear.
Started off today with a pretty decent treadmill workout. After reading through a couple “Triathlete” magazine article I’ve started trying putting race pace intervals into my run workouts. After training for a little over a month now, race pace for the run has gotten to around 6:15 minute miles. Today’s run for example started with a 5 minute increasing pace warm up (7.5-8mph) then at the 15min and 25min mark did 5mins of race pace. After the run I did a decent set of pull ups, hammer curls, and abs. My weakness as usual was nutrition. After all that exercise I had a wonderful meal at Jack in the Box…
My second workout of the day was a full swim workout with two of my good friends. The workout was mostly a sprint style workout. Here is a basic layout of it in yards. I was cramping pretty bad due to bad hydration something I’m working on. Its hard to drink enough water to keep up with my workouts.
20×25’s,10×50’s, 25,50,75,100,200 ladder, 10×50’s, 20×25’s, 2×100 cooldown. 2900 yards not bad at all.
