hello all,
i'm a traithlon newbie, and completely addicted to my new triathlete lifestyle (and to slowtwitch!) i live in chicago and have been doing all of my training at the gym due to our crazy cold weather. a friend told me to always run at a 2% inclince on the treadmill to simulate the effort of running outdoors. is this effective? also, any tips for indoor training to, hopefully, make the transition to running and riding outdoors less of a change?
also, im sure it's been discussed before, but can someone direct me to a thread for different competition clothing options?
thanks so much
