DON stands for double or nothing. In my days in high school, the football boys did two-a-days in their training before the start of the season. Same thing.
With the DON, the rules are:
1) 7 day duration
2) each day one must do two of the following: 30 minutes of swim, bike, or running
3) must be completed between Jan 1st and Mar 31
4) in the 7 day period, one must do two other workouts like yoga or weight training or pilates or whatever.
5) the work for that day must be posted on the Savannah Triathlon Team facebook page.
No I am not training for a triathlon but this is a good 7 day kickstart program, especially 'cause we are having a real cold spell here.
What's the big deal you say? It is harder than you think to fit this into your life. It is a great way to kick off the 2013 endurance event training season.
Today, Sunday Feb 17 I did intervals on the treadmill for 30 min and I swam laps for 30 minutes at The Landings Oakridge Fitness Center.
Follow my progress to train for America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride in Lake Tahoe, June 2nd. I am fund-raising for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
