Living in New England can be challenging in the winter to train for triathlons, road races and the Boston Marathon. Today, I woke up to 1 degree with wind chill -7 but my training schedule had a run. Luckily the gyms are open here! Now do I run on the indoor track, treadmill or elliptical? Since today’s run is easy (Zone 1), I decided to do the elliptical. When I do the elliptical, I do not hold onto the arms but work my balance and core. And it allows my body to recover without any impact. The forecast for this weekend is a nor’easter of 12-18 inches of snow. My long run will be a mix of indoor track and elliptical. I rather run outside but it is good to be safe. How you adapt your training to move forward makes you stronger and smarter! Be safe and healthy! @pamhouck
