YOU HAVE ANOTHER DOUBLE WORKOUT TODAY. FOR WORKOUT 1: SWIM FOR 40 MINUTES AT LEVEL 1 INTENSITY (60-70% of MHR): Try to swim this workout without doing any freestyle. Use mostly breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly, but feel free to throw in some sidestroke, underwater swimming, elementary backstroke, or a movement of your own creation. Be creative and have fun. FOR WORKOUT 2, DO AN OVERDISTANCE (OD) RUN FOR 60 MINUTES AT LEVEL 1 INTENSITY (60-70% of MHR): Remember, to do your body a favor -- minimize the pounding by staying on soft surfaces for these runs. Throw in a tempo speed burst every 15 minutes. Are you stretching? You should be -- if not, all this training will make you increasingly tight.
