I think I am narrowing it down, but have to get the $$$ worked out and we've been hit with some expenses lately. Though not as cold here, I've only been on a bike a few times in the last four months. Yikes! I don't own a trainer yet either (which I am going to try to swing by next winter). Best wishes to you and your year of the bike!!TriMOEngrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263218066341525194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985664838954149514.post-17017976369798133992012-02-10T19:46:21.827-07:002012-02-10T19:46:21.827-07:00I'm starting to get glimpses that my core work...I'm starting to get glimpses that my core work is improving my swimming strength which in turn is starting to improve my running which in turn is starting to improve my core work. Very exciting to see it all reinforcing each other.<br /><br />Imagine what you'll be capable of after 6 spin sessions or 4 rides a week. You'll be invincable!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15137409066872659859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985664838954149514.post-16986497850308293162012-02-10T13:21:13.428-07:002012-02-10T13:21:13.428-07:00Girl you are going to kick some serious booty this...Girl you are going to kick some serious booty this year!

I mean, you come off the bike wasted, its the run is going to suck!<br /><br />I like Mike's ratio for a busy triathlete with a life... while I have been trying 3:3:3, 3:2:1 would be acceptable when life gets in the way for some isolated training weeks.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04846136358775915126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985664838954149514.post-1173853203102298232012-02-10T12:00:46.651-07:002012-02-10T12:00:46.651-07:00Wonderful!

I still don't see myself as getting into tris anything serious, but I'm thinking spinning could be a good cross-training activity for me...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775254688394259213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985664838954149514.post-59552196348494301372012-02-09T21:13:10.620-07:002012-02-09T21:13:10.620-07:00Oh, and I love your pic being inducted in to the c...Oh, and I love your pic being inducted in to the clipless pedal club :-).

I think time wise a ratio of 3:2:1 for bike:run:swim is the perfect balanced plan.Ransickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084824367872613487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985664838954149514.post-68726568638293893842012-02-09T19:37:37.120-07:002012-02-09T19:37:37.120-07:00I'm waiting to get my road bike, still riding ...I'm waiting to get my road bike, still riding my mountain bike. I so agree with you, biking seems to be something I feel like I should do it, but no biggie if I miss it. <br /><br />I need to get on the bike more!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08710941480306350838noreply@blogger.com
