My hubby and I are in for IM70.3 Ohio - we are doing this as a relay again this year.  SO much fun!

Jason Veith

Feeling pretty lonely in here!    @Jenniferlyn Kryvicky  how's the training going?  Are we going to see you out at ILRA any time soon?

Just to make this thread more active, I think I'll start posting some of my HIM workouts.

I did my Wednesday Night Threshold Ride last night on the trainer.  I decided to join the fun and do my trainer rides on Zwift.  (partially because TrainerRoad stopped working on my company laptop).  So much fun riding with other "virtual" people!

And since I'm not a "paid" member of strava, I'l also recording my power to Garmin Connect.

Of course, just ignore the speed/distance between the two.  Since Zwift uses calculations to get speed/distance due to elevation changes (up hill, down hill, etc).
The Garmin Stats are straight flat-road stats.


Who else is racing IM Ohio 70.3???   Lets see those workouts!!

Paul Hough

I have other plans for 2017 and 2018, but I may do this in 2019!  I look forward to your race report!

Rainy weather all weekend made for a bad training weekend for me.  

I was able to squeeze in a short run and an indoor bike.

Saturday Run:

Sunday Bike:

Since I'm doing my trainer rides on Zwift now, I'm thinking about dropping TrainerRoad, and paying Strava so it can capture my "power" on the bike.  Zwift has been a really fun way to do trainer rides.  Plus I have been able to re-create the workouts pretty easily.

Hope the weather is better this week!  I really need to get outdoors and do some "long" bikes!
