Well, week seven of Endurance Nation triathlon training is in the books! I’m not sure why, but this seemed like a particularly long week.
I did my Sunday ride on Friday so that I could have a day off and I missed a swim during the week. So Saturday was a FULL day of swim, bike and run. The swim I had to make up was a 260o meter workout with a bunch of 300′s and 50′s. A couple of hours after completing the swim I managed to sneak in the three hour bike ride (all done on the trainer!) and then had a GREAT brick run of half an hour.
Hope your training is going well.

In going through the Endurance Nation triathlon training, I have to say that I consider cycling to be my weakest sport. So when Saturday rolls around and I know it’s going to be a big day of intervals on the bike…I get a little cranky.
This past Saturday, the end of week six, called for a 2.5 hour ride with a good majority of that spent around zone 4/5 (1/2 hour) and some zone 3 (one hour). Because I am not using a power meter, just HR, it’s hard to tell the progress I am making.
However, when I got off the bike and did the twenty minute run, I felt GREAT!
