This week started off well with training, but the past few days have been lackluster to say the least. I hope I can get out of this funk before the Jordan Creek Duathlon on Sunday. I am considering this a 'C' race and am not doing any tapering for the event. In fact, I have a 10 mile run scheduled a day before the race. This is certainly NOT recommended if you are considering this an 'A' or even 'B' race. The distances are: 2 mile run, 18 mile bike, 2.5 mile run. My goal is to start off easy - around an 8:00 minute mile pace, then ~20 mph bike, then 7:45 minute miles for the final leg of the race. I am using this race to a)practice transitions, and b) get a high level evaluation of my bike/run fitness. Below is this week's workouts
Monday - weightsTuesday - 1 hour bike, 45 minute swim
Wednesday - tempo run, 30 minute swim
Thursday - 45 minute bike
Friday - 30 minute swim
Saturday - 10 mile run
Sunday - duathlon, tentative - 2 hour bike
Due to working 2 jobs right now, plus family my training volume is down a little bit. On June 1st that will all change! Happy Training!
