I'm looking at upping my weekly mileage a bit starting next month and want to do a 2x day on Wednesdays since I normally take Thursdays as a rest day. Later this spring, I might look at adding a second 2x day per week.
For those of you who do some two-a-day workouts, how do you structure them? More distance in the morning, then a follow up in the evening (so say 3500 am, 2000 pm)? Or do you split them doing speed work in the morning? Looking for any ideas on how to break them up and still make them useful, not junk miles.
Thanks in advance - Kari
Thanks again for the good ideas. There are some great ideas here (though a triple dip sounds really intimidating.) Rxleakem, thanks for hte idea of straight swim sets within the longer swims. The last big one I did 2 weeks ago, I broke up into smaller sets of 2k, so this weekend I'll pop that up to several at 3k as well. I'm very thankful for the little lap counter deal for the finger to keep track. And yes, I have a couple of long, lake swims scheduled with my kayaker in April and May to get us both into it and in synch.
Have I told y'all how much I appreciate the insight and help? Love this forum. Good peeps!
