Training for the Dry Try
If you’ve signed up for the Dry Try, the smartest way to train ISN’T to hammer those distances over and over. Keep showing up to class and give it
your all, especially on endurance days, like Tuesday. In addition, the Engine Workouts we post each week will be programmed with the Dry Try in mind, so tackle those.
SOS Triathlon
This past Sunday, Vinnie Burke competed in the SOS Triathlon in Upstate New York. The course included eight stages:
– 30-mile bike
– 4.5-mile run
– 1.1-mile swim
– 5.5-mile run
– .5-mile swim
– 8-mile run
– .5-mile swim
– .7-mile run
Vinnie trained very hard for this race, which had some difficult conditions – 50-degree weather and overcast sky with a breeze. On the first 10 miles of the race, the front spoke of his bike broke. Instead of calling it
quits, Vinnie ripped the front brake assembly off his bikes and decided to continue (45 minutes later and dead last!). He then proceeded to pass people up and finished 45th overall (out of 136). Not the finish he was hoping for, but I think he’s a total badass for not letting something that was out of his control ruin his entire experience. The Dry Try will be a breeze for this guy!
