TUESDAY; 26th
Exercise: 23 min swimming (continuous) 15 min cycle machine (continuous)
When I was swimming, I was in the sea and in a wetsuit. I believe that this is a good way to train for the south islands triathlon because I am able to get more comfortable to the conditions and adjust to them. The swimming was mostly continuous for the 23 minutes, and I was using my aerobic energy system with the work being continuous. From this exercise I have learnt not to swim too far out because then when trying to swim back in after doing work for a long period it was quite hard due to the rip, and pull of the waves.
For the cycling I was on my cycle machine at home. For the time period I spent on the cycle machine, I was just going at a comfortable pace. The exercise was not too intensive because I treated it more like a warm down exercise. For the 15 minutes I spent on it, in ever stopped.
REST PERIOD BETWEEN: from the sea to my house, approximately 600-700 metres away and I walked in between SAT | REST | RUN(40MIN) | REST | | SAT | REST | RUN(20MIN) | REST | FRI | REST | RUN(20MIN) | CYCLE(20MIN) | FRI | REST | RUN(15MIN) | CYCLE(20MIN) | THURS | SWIM(20MIN) | REST | CYCLE(20MIN) | THURS | SWIM(30MIN) | REST | CYCLE(20MIN) | WED | SWIM(20MIN) | RUN(20MIN) | REST | WED | SWIM(30MIN) | RUN(10MIN) | REST | TUE | SWIM(20MIN) | REST | CYCLE(20MIN) | TUE | SWIM(30MIN) | REST | CYCLE(20MIN) | MON | SWIM(20MIN) | RUN(20MIN) | REST | MON | SWIM(30MIN) | RUN(10MIN) | REST | SUN | REST | REST | REST | SUN | REST | REST | REST | WEEKONE | | | | WEEKTWO | | | |
WEDNESDAY; 26th
Exercise: Duathlon. (Running, Cycling)
For my Wednesday training, instead of following my trainer program, I completed a Duathlon in Oamaru. For the Duathlon, it was approximately 14 km cycle and approximately 4 km run. This exercise was all constant while pushing myself to find my limits to get a general idea of what things i will have to
