I've mentioned before that I am going to be doing a women's mini-triathlon this summer. Today officially begins my 8 week count down.
So, here is how the mini-triathlon works: it's a 250 yard swim, a 10 mile bike ride, and a 2 mile run. I have been slacking a bit on my running recently but have gone on several bike rides and walks with the girls.
I sat down with Robbie this evening and scheduled my workouts (basing it loosely on this training schedule). We recently joined our YMCA so I can have access to a pool and childcare.
Here is my workout schedule for the week:
Monday: bike ride with the family- 30 minutes
Tuesday: swim- 500 yards
Wednesday:run- 30 minutes
Thursday: swim- 500 yards
Friday: run- 30 minutes
Saturday: bike ride with the family- 30 minutes
Sunday: rest
I will be flexible with this schedule due to weather...BUT I will not skip a day. I have no excuse since we joined the YMCA. Even if it's a run day and it's pouring outside, I can still go there and use their childcare...hopefully Maggie will be agreeable to this idea...
I invite you all to keep me accountable in this! If anyone is interested in joining me, I'd love a training buddy and/or an event partner!
