I have a good idea how to measure my swim fitness in training. Once a month I swim TT 1000 and if my time is better, then I am making progress.
However, I am thinking how to figure out if I am a better/faster runner?
I really do not like the idea to run 10-20k all out to find out, because it will distract my training process.
Are there any simple tests that will tell me if I am on the right path with my training, or I need to make any correction?
The same thing for cycling. I understand that the progress can be measured with power, but what to do if I do not have the powermeter?
I do not think the good idea is to race, again it will distract training plan and there are other factors that will influence the race result.
