What is a good workout routine for someone who is working up to a triathlon?

Training for a Tri: So, you have to do 3 sports. For most swimming is the hardest challenge. What is yours? Start of course with the sprint level Tri and 3 times per week do your weakest sport, 2 times weekly the second weakest, and at least once a week do your strongest sport. For the sprint level, build up to 1/2 mile swimming, 5 miles running, and 10 miles biking. Good Luck. Dr Rich Blake

See books: Best bet is to see the training manuals and books on this. There are many, so go to store and page through many to find the best for you. Joe Friel has a good "training bible" , among others. Much depends on what level tri you are doing. Find a local tri club and get as much info as you can -- we all enjoy helping the "Newbies" - we were once there. Go to USAT online for good info. Best of luck.
