Double Brick 2*(30 min bike + 3 mile run) by ryan.madamba at Garmin Connect - Details

Double Brick 2*(30 min bike + 3 mile run) by ryan.madamba at Garmin Connect - Details

Yesterday was my first day on the track at Amboy Rd for 2011. It was a good one, did a double Brick workout. Starting with warm up then going into 15 minutes at 140 HR, 15 minutes 150 HR, then transition to 9 laps on the track about 3 miles of running. The run was supposed to descend or go faster each mile (3 laps). Then we did it again this time the run ascended pace each mile.

The graph on the Garmin link shows HR and speed over time. You can see the transition from bike to run and run to bike when there is a dip in speed, HR also goes down during transition.

I was happy with this for the first one of the year, and I am looking forward to doing again in the coming weeks to analyze the data. Essentially this was the bike, run leg of an Olympic distance triathlon broken. With about 12 weeks till St. Anthony's I will plan to do this about 8 times before the race it helps with transition and getting the legs ready to run off the bike.
