So this was a nice workout, felt strong in the pool and on the bike. I put in more time in the pool but it felt good to do 3800 yards.
So here is the bike:
Warm up with 15 minutes of easy cycling.
Bike at an easy pace keeping your heart rate between Zone 1- Zone 3.
Cool down with 15 minutes of easy cycling.

This is predominantly the long, slow distance workout and a major part of long course training.
Make sure to stay hydrated before, during, and after workouts.
