Just a brief training update. I’m slowly building back up to some big weeks ahead. As for this week, I started slow and am ending it with a bang. I was pretty sore after the SB Triathlon!
Monday: 4800 yd swim workout;
Tuesday: 4 hour Zone 2 ride;
Wednesday: 2 hour trail run (@ 15 miles+);
Thursday: 2 hour light spin ride
Fri/Sat/Sun — my first “Race Simulation”. This will be a (lesser) approximation of Ultraman. Sort of a reduced load version of the Ultraman race to help my acclimate to the 3 day stage race. It will go like this:
Friday: 7400 yd swim workout, followed immediately by a 4 hour hard climbing ride
Saturday: 7 hour hard ride
Sunday: 2 hour run in the morning plus a 1 hour run in the afternoon
Should be interesting. Going to experiment with my nutrition by taking in more solid foods on the rides. Usually I am totally liquid, but for Ultraman I need to get by system used to eating actual real food on the bike. I’ll report back in on how it goes.
you’re amazing mr. roll…inspirational…and amazing train away my friend and kill it…you got this…insane yes and i love it!
