BRICK - 81 days left

Today was my first BRICK workout. The acronym stands for Bike, Run, ICK. It refers to the gelatinous feeling in your legs after doing a sustained bike ride then hopping off the bike to do a run. Your legs have been doing a circular motion on the bike and suddenly switching to a running stride takes a little getting used to. Today the bike ride was 40 minutes, then a 15 minute run. Looking ahead on my training schedule the bike/run workouts only get slightly more difficult by extending the run by another 5 minutes, so this is almost as tough as it gets - woohoo!
