JGR Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Problem is I spend one day a weekend being hungover which means zero training. Gonna have to change thatI found a solution for that - Phuza Thursdays and just being hung over at work, on someone else's time ... But on a serious note I try and see mates in the week for a quick beer ect and avoid the heavy weekend sessions
hboli4 Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 I do around 250 km riding - 8 hours40 km running - 3.5 hours or so6 km swimming 1.5 hours45 mins strength and conditioning Sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less, but will ramp up the distances over the next two months until I have a decent base Did anybody else also just go " :eek: " 6km swimming in 1.5!!!Basically everything
davem Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Spinning is great way to get your riding strength up without taking too much time. My Wed 90min spin class is as good training as a 3hr ride.

No Name Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Not sure if anybody posted this but here is the lakefarm climb including the downhill and then the few drags afterwards. It is marked between the two black lines.

Thought I was doing ok, suddenly feeling very under-done!!I did 18 hours this weekend, three swims of 4 km each, 75 km in 5 hours of running and 400 km in 10 hours of cycling, am feeling really guilty that I had to cut my training short
