ReplyDeletep.s. CONGRATS!
Can't wait to hear all about it!! I had a slow day at Mercer...heat hurts performance....anyway, as for biking - more biking, not sure how you bike, but trying to do a faster cadence in a lower gear has helped immensely - I did a lot of work over the winter on the bike trainer...hill workouts, and doing some tempo sessions. Also biking with a group helps, bike with people faster and slower, practice drafting even though not allowed in a race helps you learn how to go at a faster tempo for non-drafting races...keep at it!!
ReplyDeleteI need those biking tips too. Looking forward to the recap.
