I'm pretty new to triathlons; only done two. This summer, however, I'm looking to change that. I'll probably be doing sprint triathlons. I run cross country and track and consider myself pretty decent (currently run 5:10 for the mile, 11:09 for the two mile). I was thinking of adding some biking and swimming on top of running 50-60 mpw.

As winter begins to ebb, people should be getting into the heart of their tri training. That of course means some needed rest weeks and the accompanying breakthrough/test workouts to track fitness progress. Use this thread to report on any test workouts you would like to share (not an every day "what was your workout" post, just the key performances.

Hey all- I just searched the archives for some core workout suggestions, but didn't find many that didn't involve equipment that I don't have and don't want to buy. Any ideas for good non-equipment core workouts? I did see Kona_expat's Dirty 30's (I'd have to read it again though... movements 2 and 3 seem confusing). Any suggestions are welcome- Thanks Greg
