Subject: RE: Oly 8 days before a 70.3?Has your training been complete, consistent and solid for the HIM thus far? How good are you at holding yourself back? Is the Oly a pretty flat course, not too technical? If it were me, and it were a pretty low-risk course, I would do it, but take it very, very easy. If you're not good at this, you might be kissing your HIM execution goodbye. 15-minute warmup for the swim, then take it realllly easy to 45 min during the race ... 1:15 bike is pretty fast for an Oly ... again, I'd take it really easy maybe to 1:30 ... Easy easy 30-min run, walk the rest. Like, as a cooldown. Just a thought. |
