Hello Gators,A couple of updates...Today: This morning's 10am-11am Tri Swim Class is canceled.  This evening's class, as of now, is still on; unless the Y closes, we'll have a workout.Friday, 9am-10:30am: Bike trainers on the pool deck with Don M
Also, Saturday is still as listed in the e-mail below.
Not that the Philly Marathon is past, I had my first opportunity last night to attend Michelle's triathlete spin/strength building/core workout and it's a great workout!  It's tough, but it will really pay off when we get to our race season.  If you have not yet had the opportunity to attend, I strongly recommend you try it out (just spin, just strength/core, or both) sometime in December.
Also, a head's up for next week... On Thursday, 12/4 during the 7:30pm-8:30pm Tri Club bike trainer workout, we're going to do something called a "lactate threshold heart rate test".  This is something we'll do at least a few times (roughly every 6-8 weeks) to initially determine and then occasionally verify/update our heart rate zones.  To participate you will need the following...Your bike and bike trainerHeart rate monitorA positive attitude as it's not a fun testThe test itself includes a 20-30 minute stretch of putting out as much effort as you can maintain over that period and then using your average heart rate to calculate your zones.  Then you can use those zones when we do our future bike workouts.
We'll also do a similar test sometime in December to determine your run heart rate zones (will be different than bike zones).
Happy Thanksgiving!
Don
