I have been asked by many of you what my own workouts look like. It depends- how much time I have. I use my weekends wisely and incorporate my longer workouts on those days, with Wednesday also a long workout day. I incorporate riding or running to the Club to lift, take spinning, or a swim workout. Nice warm up and also great to get additional miles in.
Today, Saturday December 4th, 2010-
Workout was highlighting intense spinning class and post workout fatigued legs with a couple more miles to run. That is important as an athlete and trainer, as it allows me to challenge my own body when I would rather walk than run. But as a triathlete you don't want to just walk off the bike, you want to get in your groove and run.
