This is a weak version of Kevin Castille's workout that I saw in Runner's World Aug. issue.

PM Track Workout:

WU: 1 mi., 5x200m w/ 200m rec. (43,42,41,41,43), 600m jog

4x1000m (3:43, 3:41, 3:46, 3:47), 1200m jog,

400m - 1:06, 400m jog,

200m - 0:31,

0.4 mi. CD (before the storm hit)

8:30PM quick transition run through, working on sprint speeds with transition between bike and run:

bike 4.5 mi. on Nate's fast bike - 14:34 (19 mph), after forgetting to turn my foot and get a foot loose and falling sideways on the bike right out in front of my house :), I did get my foot unclipped off the pedal, changed into running shoes and took off - managed a very uncomfortable/tight mile in 6:42

Saucony Kinvara - White And Red Miles: 7.50	Nathan's Lightweight Racing Bike Miles: 4.50

Great looking workout - a little bit of everything. Good luck at the Tri this weekend. I would love to eventually get into those one day (probably need a bike first).

Thanks, Joe! I actually stole it from this months Runner's World - its a weak version of one of Kevin Castille's published workouts.

Do what I did for this tri - train on your heavy $80 walmart clunker, and then borrow somebody's lightweight racing bike :) Hopefully I don't drown :)
