ICYMI, we are in the depths of Stage 4 Restrictions - week 3 to be specific! We hope your virtual training continues to keep you happy, healthy, motivated and that you are using, not abusing, your 1 hour of outside time. Don't forget that currently, we are permitted to exercise outside our home with only one other person for no more than one hour and within a 5km radius of your home, and you are not permitted to drive to a location to exercise.
This means that athletes are required to use their discretion in following the program. Whilst it is ingrained in most triathletes to tick off every single session, down to the nearest kilometre, this might not be possible currently nor be wise! If you have a programmed session that cannot be completed outdoors in 60mins, you need to either:
1. Complete the remaining time/distance indoors or within your property (backyard, balcony etc)
2. Split the session across consecutive days
or
3. Remember that we are living through a pandemic and that it's more important to keep moving for mental and physical well-being than to be going out and chasing PBs or long rides or runs. You will have read last week that it may even be detrimental to your health and well-being to be "flogging yourself".
Follow the link below for more details on exercise guidelines and, remember that coaches are available and more than happy to talk you through flexible options if you need!
