It's January and I'm racing tomorrow?

Have never done a duathlon, maybe any multisport race in the month of January before. Haven’t been training much. A few runs, ride my bike home 3 miles every day.

 

Tomorrow is TBF’s New Year’s Duathlon. It’s free: 2mi run/7 mi bike and 2 mi run.

 

Will be riding my commuter bike actually. The course is twisty, but I’m riding it because my Cervelo TT bike is in pieces. Almost done with the aero front modification.

 

My goal is to average 7:30 min/mi pace on both runs and average 23mph on the bike. That’s about 46:30, so the goal is sub 47 minutes. Not sure if I can hold 7:30 miles, but I’m going to try. Knowing myself, I’m going to try and hold 7:15 pace and see what happens.
