Training Regime


Hi all,
My training regime is outlined below for those planning to come with me, concerned about my preparations or who are simply curious. Not all of it is essential as I am trying to maintain some of the triathlon training progress I made this year and included what I do during fitness classes at work. Feel free to use it as a base but you will need to customize it according to your schedule and other goals. I can help you with that if you like.

History
- Human movement, nutrition and psych knowledge via BSc Kin
- 5+ years of formal work-outs, UW triathelon club ~2yr
-Active, nonsmoker, light alcohol consumption
-Feb 19: Up New TP Hill 7-10km/h, Flat 20km/hr, Down TP Hill 45km/hr, all below lactate threshold (easy ride, able to carry conversation)
