Josh, as for pace, it's base training months so the weekends are not about
hammering, plus you still have to race when you get down to Central Park.
The hard work is reserved for shorter LT or interval workouts during the
week at this point.
By the way, I mentioned this awhile back but the gym here in Mid Westchester
will likely be getting all new spin bikes and I'm looking for a few folks
that want to be part of a training program from the ground up, both as
participants and as instructors - not your typical indoor cycling program -
a bit more focused on incorporating the indoor rides with the rest of a
training programs so that they are focused on achieving a desired benefit.
Also if you know of GREAT indoor cycling teachers, let me know. I love
referrals from people that actually ride outside.
If you are interested drop me a line. We'll have to get Eve to make the
drive down from Northern Westchester to teach as well.
Essentially, if you like to ride and do tri's and like to help others
achieve their goals, and most especially if you really want to help others
have a positive impact on their communities, then we should talk because
that's what Race with Purpose is all about.
By the way, both Jackie and Javier tore up the Tupper Lake course last
season. All of that hard training definitely paid off.
Cheers,
-Adam

Thanks Adam. Sounds like a fun day Saturday, however I have the last
session in my set of swim lessons scheduled. I ran my first race a
few weeks ago (the Race to Deliver 4m) and had a blast, so I'd like to
join you some other time you're riding down. The next one I'm
registered for is the 5M on Jan. 12th.
What sort of pace/distances do you do on the Sunday runs? I may not
be able to keep up with any of you :)
