Get your time for each 125 within a set and add it up for a timed 500. These should be a lot faster than if you swam 500 continuous, but your HR should stay below 92%. Fast but controlled is the name of the game.; Increase your effort from 80-90+% within each set of 125s -- the first one is at 80% and each one gets faster so that #4 is at 90+%.; COOL DOWN; 400 recovery below 60%

Again, no all out efforts.; After your 4th 1600, go right into your cooldown.; Cooldown by jogging below 60% to the end.

Weekend Note:

The long ride is the same as last weekend, but Sunday's run duration is on it's way down. Nothing bangs up the legs like a long run, so we're keeping your Ultra endurace going with a near race-duration ride on Saturday.

After this weekend, it's all downhill!!

Saturday

BIKE 4:30: Keep your effort aerobic. No hard group rides.; Concentrate on taking fuel in consistently from beginning to end, and set yourself up well for a solid run effort afterwards.
RUN 0:45: Brick run right after biking. Push the pace right away at a pace slightly faster than what you want to run your marathon at. Your HR should not exceed 85%.; Run the first 30:00 at this pace. Then finish up by cooling down the final 15 minutes and stretching out afterwards.

RUN 1:30: After 15:00 of warming up, hold your HR at 70-75% until the 1:00 mark. Then bump up your HR into the 75-84% range for 20 minutes before cooling down completely.; Walk it in the final couple minutes. Then stretch out your calves, glutes and hamstrings.
BIKE 0:45: Slightly longer ride this weekend. Keep it all recovery effort -- below 65% -- and spin at 95+rpm in your small chain ring.
