HPR Columbus kicked off the new year with a Brick Weekend of training that most would say is Crazy A-- Sh--! I once read that you can do as much base training in a day that you want. So I put team HPR Columbus through the test. They have been training since Nov 1, 2010 for six days per week and during build weeks up to 12 hours.
Here is what the four days looked like:
Thursday PM
50min Run with 5 x 30sec Hills in the middle
Friday AM
60min Drill Swim Set
115min Biking on Trainer
Saturday AM into PM
80min Bike on Trainer
15min Run
65min Bike on Trainer
15min Run
50min Bike on Trainer
15min Run
45min Bike on Trainer
15min Run
Sunday AM
120min Run on a flat Snowy Trail
30min Bike on Trainer (small ring recovery spin)
We most definitely suffered together and worked through a lot physically and mentally as individuals. I'm very proud of my athletes and their accomplishments this past weekend. Looking forward to next week's recovery schedule!
