I started a half marathon training plan, to prep for The Uwharrie Trail Run Challenge. I’m using a Garmin Coaches training plan for this.
The goal is to:
- Spend time training with Lori & Coco
- Lose weight earlier in the season
- Build some fitness without all the time riding in he cold or on a trainer
- Run a half marathon distance again or at leas 10 miles pretty comfortably (it used to be routine a couple of decades ago!)
I started a second training plan using Zwift for just a couple of days a week of riding. It is a mild plan, but I’l switch over to a much tougher plan once I get through the trail run / race.
The goal of the plan is to:
- Spinn out my legs for active recovery given the run training
- Build functional strength for cycling
- Prep for a much harder cycling plan
I am excited to be joining the Cardinal Classic Cycling team for a ride during raining camp in March. So that is some added motivation to get in shape!
I also bought a black dobak because it is thinning. Seriously, next belt is re with black stripe aka deputy belt. Then Blackbelt. Cycling and Taekwondo are not naturally complimentary sports, but it is nice time with my family and having a different focus.
