Tri Dewi
CASTLE TO CASTLE DUATHLON
1st March 9am
23km Zwift https://www.zwift.com/uk/events/view/5421738
3km Run - treadmill or outside
Take at your own pace, go full gas, or incorporate a workout into it.
Timing is optional. Message them over to me if you're interested in seeing how you got on against your friends or club mates.
There are loads of great multi-sport events taking place all over Wales, but if you can't make one outdoors, or the weather ends up being terrible, get involved with this virtual duathlon:
It's FREE, and you're all invited.
Wales has over 400 castle sites, hence the route choice 🙂 and since it's in conjunction with WGT / SummitFitness, there's also a summit on the bike route - Castle KOM.
(Wales also has a lot of beautiful summits.)
Get involved with this, or one of the outdoor events and celebrate St David's Day with the triathlon community.

BASE
The training phase where you create a strong, err, base - to build on as your season progresses.
* Target your weaknesses
* Allocate more time and resources to strength work
* Mix in cross-training
* Reinforce strong nutritional habits
* Embrace the lack of pressure, and volume, which may come later in the year
* Views of K2 optional - more likely to be a load of sweaty people at your local gym
Happy training!
