I have an extra long weekend and don't go back to work until Thursday. My tri is on Sunday. I have made it a point to cram a ton of training into today and the next 2 days. I did a bike this morning, my ironman neighbor just invited me to a swim, and this evening I am doing an evil barre plus (think harder than any marathon, push till you puke type class) class. Tomorrow I a set up for bikram yoga in the morning and then a swim/bike/run with a friend who is doing her 1st tri. Wednesday, I have barre plus again (PURE EVIL!!!) and then whatever else opportunity comes along. So does cramming for a sprint tri work? I think I need to add some more running in but will it even matter. I have been blowing off running and only run minimal since Big Sur, 2 months ago (think 10 miles over the past 2 months, I take this recovery stuff seriously. I am comfortable, not fast, but comfortable with the swim and bike distance. The run is the thing I am least comfortable at right now but my social opportunities are minimal for the run. Does it even matter? I am just looking to survive but I would like to do it without walking. No. But I think you can do it, with the goals you posted. x2 Do whatever training you feel like between now and then, but at best it's a warm-up. Nothing you can do now is going to produce the relevant physiological adaptations between now and then to improve your tri performance. However, you have plenty of experience/base to get you through. Just go in, have fun and finish! And if you don't want to walk ... just run slower. |

Looking forward to encouraging you as you train for your HIM! Kirsten - If the elevation is a non-issue for you then I think the lower elevation ride looks "harder" because it has steeper climbs. The one at elevation has a less steep climb and appears to have more downhill time. Just my 2 cents. Hoping the elevation won't be an issue, but glad that y'all think the first is more difficult. That is the profile from my ride yesterday; the other is my HIM. When I first looked at the elevation a few months back, I was worried, but I am pretty comfortable on hills, so reckon I should be ok! If you are use to the lower elevation I would definitely try to get some high elevation training done. While the hills are less steep comparitavely you are starting 1000 meters higher which is significant. I agree. The second ride looks harder as the climbs cover similar height changes overall, but has the added difficulty of higher altitude throughout. |

As Yanti said, if you don't want to walk just run slower. and if you NEED to walk, just do it. Often people set arbitrary goals, "I want to run X fast" etc. that don't take anything else into account such as weather conditions, the course, how you are feeling on THAT particular day. So, as I always say, go out there and do your best on that given day and listen to your body. ...and keep it fun. |

It's assumed you will take the straightest line to your ongoing path when you approach. Once in a while some idiot tourist will try to treat a roundabout like a roundabout and we honk furiously because he's going to kill somebody doing that. |
