Week 20: Training begins today!

I’ll be posting my weekly workout schedule if anyone wants to comment. There are exactly 20 weeks to Tupper Lake so here is week 20:

Tuesday
Swim: 2x200 warm up, 8x25/20sec, 2x200 cool down
Bike: 5 mile warm up, 8x30sec hill repeats, 5 mile EZ pace

Wednesday
Swim: 10x100 drills
Run: 1 mile warm up, 8x30sec hill repeats/1 min recovery, 1 mile cool down

Thursday
Brick: 45 minute bike, 15 minute run EZ pace

Friday
Swim: 2x200 warm up, 8x25/20sec, 2x200 cool down
Bike: 30 minute tempo ride

Saturday
Bike: 60 minute
Run: 30 minute

Sunday
Run: 50 minutes
Swim: 1100 meters

And how does my first day go?!? The ONLY snow all year and slip sliding on my way to the JCC (I didn’t make it)! I swapped the hill repeat workout with a strength building Spinervals DVD and will make up my Swim on Thursday AM. Good enough. Work has been tragically hectic and I need to focus on getting everything in this week. I can do it.

BTW, I got a new bike. Not new in the actual sense, just new to me. It is a Fuji Aloha and I picked it up for pennies on ebay. I also snagged a new ultegra rear derailuer and 10 speed cassette for less than 100 bucks. I am so good to go.

Happy Training All!
