Run

  • 11m 15s /Mi

4:15p. 90*, WINDY!!

Run Base
Endurance
Run 45' on a flat course or treadmill. Keep HR in Zone 1-2.

Concentrated on form - footstrike, turnover, posture, arm position.

Pace a little slower due to paying attention to form, and the frickin' heat!

Swim
  • 1h 15m
  • 3017.52 meters
  • -----

w.u.
1x200 swim
1x200 kick
1x200 swim 25easy/25fast
(600)

transition:
8x50 moderate @ 10" RI

m.s.
1x400 pull. bilateral breathing. rest 1 minute
6x150 free on 3:00 - consistent pace
8x100 free, broken at 50 for 5sec. on 2:00
On the last 100 rest break 10sec @ 75, then breathe as few times as possible the last 25.

c.d.
1x200 swim. focus on great technique - get out of the pool with good muscle memory.

Pretty Running - lean forward, roll off your big toes, keep hand above your waist, look about 6 feet in front of you with your eyes, drive your elbows back and never cross your midline with your hands. Pull Drill - Focus will be on learning to 'catch' the water with your forearm and pull yourself through the water. If you feel your lats (the muscles under your arm pits that go down the side of your back) engage, then you are starting to get it. If your shoulders are tired, then you are still using too much shoulder and not enough lats.

Bike
  • 4h 34m 49s
  • 80.28 miles
  • 17.53 Mi/hr

Out and back course - mostly flat with rollers, except for the first and last 5-7 miles which had some pretty good hills. At the end of an 80 mile ride, they were the last thing I wanted to do.

The 40 miles out was great. Then I turned back into what had developed into a 10-15 mph headwind with gusts. Winds were calm when I started, so I didn't get a whole lot of tailwind benefit until about the last few miles outbound.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased. Especially that I was able to keep my ave. HR in high Zn. 1/low Zn. 2. Except for the last 10 miles or so. :)

June 16

Run
  • 52m 42s

S1b. Spin-ups. Ride on a flat road or trainer. Warmup for 15 minutes. Slowly spin up to max rpm over 30 secs. When you begin to bounce, back off, and then hold it for several seconds. Recover completely and repeat several times. Stay RELAXED!

Going to dial-up land this weekend, so no BT.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Here's the best pic from the Metroplex Sprint Tri this past Sunday:  (yeah, I know.  I still have to do my RR.)
