Half Ironman Brick

A good HIM workout that I like to help you learn good pacing...

Run 45 minutes -- 20 mins build to steady then steady
Ride 2:30 -- 15 min just ride then 40/20/40/20 -- 40 min segments are IM effort (steady) -- 20 min segments are HIM effort (mod-hard)
Run 45 mins -- 15 mins steady then 6x5 min alt mod-hard with steady

If you are racing once a month then this could be the other tough workout for each four week block.

The goal is not to drill yourself -- simply to learn how "easy" steady feels early in a workout and how to pace yourself and dial in your HIM pacing.

Nearly every athlete runs too fast on the first run and rides too hard for the first hour of the main set. Learning to adjust and address this fact will greatly enhance your late race performance.
