Pick Your Terrain Wisely for Training

Pick Your Terrain Wisely for Training

How many times do you throw your leg over the bike and think where should I ride? Happens to me all of the time. I have a couple of go-to routes I take rolling away from P7HQ. One is a flat to rolling ride with minimal forced stops (traffic lights/stop signs). The other is up one of the local canyons that has options for some steep sections as well as extended moderate grades. I've used these routes for years because I know how to execute a variety of workouts due to the terrain and distance.

The Law of Diminishing Returns

The Law of Diminishing Returns

remember when I first started running - it was about 7 months postpartum from my third child.  I had plenty of weight to lose and was really starting from scratch.  In a relatively short amount of time, I went from the walk-run method for 30 minutes to running 30 minutes straight to running several miles at a time.
