Subject: RE: DU and Tri back to back weekends??
ouradventure - 2008-06-07 4:41 PM I have a quick question. I'm doing a sprint tri in Aug. and thinking about doing a run/bike/run DU the weekend before my tri. The distances of the DU are 4/14/4. Is this a good idea? Or, should I just forget about the DU and focus on the taper week before my tri? Any input would be greatly appreciated! It all depends on your goals. There are people that do two races in ONE weekend, or a few that do four in one weekend (the TTT) or like me, do three marys in 3 days... If you want to go fast in both, it may not happen. If you want to use one as a training day and race the other, that's usually a better option, but people do race back to back all the time.
GOOD LUCK and most importantly, HAVE FUN!! |
