Two rides in the weekend, one long recovery ride on Saturday and one short high intensity on Sunday. Monday and Wednesday are swim and yoga/pilates/stretch days Tuesday and Thursday are lift and run days Friday is restday
Monday - Wednesday extremely short swims + Running Tuesday - Thursday Bike Friday - Long swim Saturday - Sunday Bike or run on one of the two days, rest on the other...
Swimming - in Summer time or when it's hot. Running - predominantly during the Winter or when it's wet. Cycling - when not swimming or riding There are more disciplines, all depend on season and weather, but you asked for 3.
Mark blew by that beetle (4:04 into the video) like it was at a slow crawl! Joking aside it was great camera work. Kudos to the filming crew, they help make these GTN videos awesome!.
My goal is 10hr/week, but alot is cross country skiing during winter. I try to get 1 run/cycle/swim each week. When its summer with no school and only work i try to get 2-3 swims/week. 3-4 days on cycle/week and 3 runs/week. I do have atleast 1 rest day every 14 day.
I come from a strength background and don’t want to lose that and my physique completely, what days should I put my lower body and upper body days on for strength? Swim days?

I signed up for 113 event in event, swimming and cyclng i been training for, but running no chance! also worried of getting injured with weak knees. any tips?
Great stuff, best of luck! It's tough to diagnose exactly why, but knee issues tend to come from a lack of stability or strength around the glutes and hips. Working on things like clams will help build that glute strength up
How do you balance the 3 disciplines in training? Let us know in the comments below 👇

Hi, should I introduce any weight training into the training to help strengthen? Any suggestions about how much and how often or what type?

What do you both do 5k in ???
Mark's 5K PB is a rapid 15'08", mine is 17'50".
I’m 13 and I do 5k in 18:50 is that good???
It is a good time, keep working on it and train sensibly and you're sure to get faster.
