Yup,
Im training for a triathalon.
Its a sprint = 1/4 mile swim, 12 mile bike, then a 5k(3.1 miles)
Im am 8 weeks out (1 day short of 8 weeks).
Ive been training for general fitness and running for a while, but I have dedicated that last 3 weeks and the next 8 to this event.
My general training plan looks like this.
It came from my brothers trainer.
Monday - Run and Run/Bike every other week gradually increasing and adding in interval training
Tuesday - Core/Rest
Wednesday - Swim - increasing intensity
Thursday - Pure rest day
Friday Bike
Saturday - Swim - increasing intensity
Sunday Core, Various HiiT and strength training.
So that was my plan.
What I have found in the last three weeks is my swim is Drastically lagging.
So I am going to be swimming more frequently as an add - not dropping anything off the list.
I actually have been continuing on my strenght & conditioning during this time as well.
I plan on phasing that out as I get closer to the 30 day mark and will totally focut on aerobic activity/capacity.
