I'm a Dork - HIM Race Execution Questions/Clarifications

I feel like a dork cuz I had all this stuff memorized last year.    But I have a couple of questions for my upcoming HIM as I have read conflicting stuff in the Forums since my return in May.

1 - Are race rehearsals still 4 week and 2 weeks out from race day?  I read somewhere about 5 weeks and 3 weeks out?

2 - The run execution is still 3 (pace +:30) / 7 (pace) / 3 (go for it)?

3 - We are still using the race pace calculator spreadsheet Rich created last year that gives us our "Gears?" 

I have used the Wiki tools to get my race day data (pace, gears, etc.) already, but the dates on the preso's are from last May.  Wanted to make sure I am looking at the latest and greatest. 

Thanks.

  • 1 - Not sure about rehearsals.
    2 - Yes: 3 (pace +:30) / 7 (pace) / 3 (go for it)
    3 - The wiki overrides the power calculator, but power calculator is still valid for 2:30 - 3:00 bike splits

    Wiki entry on HIM execution
  • On the rehearsals, the first one should be 4-6 weeks out...timing is approximate and flexible. The second one should be 2 weeks out for sure. You have the run pace nailed, and I don't use power (which I hate!) so, I can't answer #3.

    You're all set!
  • Hi. Per the intermed HIM schwd, RRs are at
    the end of week 6 and 10.

    As far as run pacing I think you've got it- 3@ z2+30,
    7@z2, 3 at whatever you can do. I think
    there's a schedule typo wrt the first 3 bc
    I did my first RR at z1+30 bc that's how I
    read it... I found out later that's not the deal.

    Good luck!
  • Hay buddy!! I just returned as well!! Nice to see you here!!

  • @Chris - Thanks.  I am feeling the love. 

    Hope all is well.

  • @Noodle - Back atcha my friend.  Good to see you back also

     

    Everyone, thanks for the feedback!  I figured if it was in the Wiki it was probably correct.  But wanted to double check.

    Later!
