It seems a long time away from the start, not to mention the finish line! As the first snow flies right now and winter sets in I know I'll have some months of waiting out the weather when I can swim and bike more and save the running and pounding until I've got more incentive to get out the door.
For now it's a foundation of more strength to add power to all three later and lay the foundation for injury prevention work that will accompany more sport focused workouts later. Still even now I'm focusing on three key long distance workouts a week a bike on Sunday a run on Wednesday (which will get harder to do indoors and consist of much more cross training for the next three months) and a longer swim on Fridays.
Keeping the pool a habit is important during winter for me- its easy to miss a cold snowy morning at 5:30 when the snow blower is calling first! Thankfully Truman and I ran outdoors Tuesday (instead of a swim!) on what seems like the last time we'll see 60 degrees for a while! The pool will still be there!!
