Weekend Workouts – Feb 2nd & 3rd

Its looking like a great weekend ahead for some fun on the roads, and for the Super Bowl!  Its a bit unprecedented that we haven’t been chased indoors for a weekend yet, so lets make the best of it.  Come on out and burn off all those “pops” and horrible, but oh so good things that go along with Super Bowl Sunday!  Go Niners!

Saturday Ride – Novato-Olema-Limantour-Pt Reyes 

Heading out of Novato for a little different terrain, the gentle and rolling hills allow for a good warm up and continued work on our group riding skills.  Continuing past the Nicasio Reservoir and towards Olema, we head to the hills for some climbing and descending work.  Perfect intervals, for sustained effort, then fast, but steady descents to help our athletes increase their downhill comfort levels.  Options for 1-3 repeats, then heading to Point Reyes Station for a regroup.

Bike Route – 51 to 65 Miles – Hill repeats are 7 miles each (3.5 up, 3.5 down)

Sunday Ride – Mill Valley-Paradise Loop


With Kaiser Half Marathon going on, we are taking a weekend off from organized runs, but Michael is leading a no-drop Paradise Loop ride for those wanting some extra bike work and guidance this weekend.

Great opportunity for a transition, or brick run after.   A new run store opened up this week right there as well which could be worth a visit: San Francisco Running Company

Bike Route – 20 miles
