Subject: RE: hikergerb's Group - FullLisa, I am a firm beleiver in the TI method. Check at you local library to see if they have the book. I'd mail you mine but I promised it to a training buddy here that wants to turn one of the local tri's in to a cripples race between us (both of us are bad knee guys). As for your training distances you are talking about exactly what I did last year. I actually was swimming twice the distance of the race because I was looking to build fitness without beating my knees. Early this spring you should try doing a brick or two. That is doing a bike workout (maybe shorten it just a bit) and go through your transition and do a run workout. It is amazing how dead your legs feel when you go from the bike to the run. Experiencing that before a race would be good. Let me know if you find the TI stuff. I might beable to get my buddy to hustle up with it. |
