Subject: RE: Oh man, am I in trouble! Ahaha, I have totally been there. One year, I did a sprint tri on Saturday (and my heat started in the afternoon so I wasn't done until like 3:00 ), then we packed up and drove 8 hours immediately when I was done and did a du the next AM (10k-40k-5k ). Good times. I didn't want to do the du after the sprint, but it's funny how the body will get things done when in the race mentality. Wasn't my best race for the du, because I had done really well for myself the day before, but it was okay. Maybe do some more bricks this week, but maybe not at full speed - the purpose of them is to get your legs used to running after being on the bike (at least for me ). I think you'll be fine, but make sure you take a few days to rest up prior to your races. And try not to stress yourself out about your pace/HR as that will just make you more nervous for your races and stress is bad in general. Maybe you can pick which race you want to do your best at, and then do the other one for fun/training. That might take some of the pressure off. Don't worry, you'll do fine! |
