#brickworkout

Today’s #wednesdayworkout #crosstrainingworkout was a #brickworkout. I got the old #litespeedroadbike out and took advantage of empty roads, spinning my way over to @georgemasonu to cycle the #masonloop then after getting back to #mantuava I hopped off the bike, did a quick shoe change and ran a mile. I used to do these little bricks a lot, and I feel like I need to get back to them. Who knows, maybe I’ll even talk myself into doing another #duathlon. #runblr #fitblr #bikeblr #basebuilding #roadcycling #streetcycling (at Fairfax, Virginia)

Enjoyed my brick workout tonight! I have big cycling goals but I still want to spend some time with my first love #running #runhappy #brickworkout #bikesbikesbike #workharddreambigdoepicshit #bikesruleeverythingaroundme #ridetherollers

One sure sign that winter is coming: I start recording rides to nowhere. It was a #crosstraining day so I headed over to the club for a #diyspin session as there were no classes scheduled this evening - I actually did 48.5 minutes and about 14 miles (didn’t record the warmup distance). I followed that up with a slow 10-minute mile #treadmill jog for the #brickworkout. #fall2019 is getting kicked out the door hard by an angry uppity #winter2019 it seems. Winters in #northernvirginia are usually on the mild side but long range forecasts this year suggest otherwise. Oh boy. 😞#runblr #fitblr #spinning #bikeblr #fallracingseason #lifetimefairfax #usatfxcnationals (at Life Time Athletic - Fairfax) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4ykx1Nnm0S/?igshid=1lg2diafvhmdy

It’s that time of the year! #stpatricksday2019 weekend is upon us. Before the pourin’ o’ the drink, though, come the ride and the run! Biked for an hour up and down my hilly #mantuava streets, then got off the bike and ran a mile. Just a little bit of #sprinttriathlon practice. Maybe I should sign up for one. Either way I feel like I am back in business with the #cherryblossomtenmiler training. Will I have enough time to pull it all back together after two weeks of being sidelined on and off? We will see. #runblr #fitblr #brickworkout #springweather #springracingseason #northfacedctrailhalf #masterstrackathlete (at Mantua, Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvC-xu_Bi4v/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cjmm8ln2oft7

Nice night for a #brickworkout which also helped clear my head after the workday. I took the @trekbikes hybrid on some trails then quickly dismounted for a mile loop near home. I’m always surprised in these runs off the bike. I feel like I’m going so slow when I’m actually moving at a good clip. It was all quick prep for the @chicago.tri #chivirtualtri that I am going to attempt later this week. #runblr #fitblr #bikeblr #crosstraining #summertraining #realtriathlonnextyear #keepshowingup (at Mantua, Virginia)

Day 133: Today’s brick training session was the second this week and the last of the more intense workouts. The indoor bike was great and my legs felt amazing running off the bike. From this point on, it’s all a matter of training smart with just enough intensity to remind myself of what to expect. Only one more week to go until Ironman 70.3 Atlantic City. #im703ac2019 #im703ac #brickworkout #indoorbike #running #halfironmantraining #ironman703training #triathlontraining #im703training #onemoreweektogo #marcostriathlondiary #triathlondiaries #cantwait https://www.instagram.com/p/B2KDMoDhqeM/?igshid=1d4blnudi2aki
